Summary/Abstract: The learning process that is taking place on the occasion of the interaction between organizations is facilitated by spatial proximity, which affects the intensification of collaboration between firms and other institutions. Such intensification creates an area (pool) with specialized skills, in addition, difficult to follow, because of unique characteristics (specificity). An outlined conceptual framework helped to consider the impact of co-localization of the companies in regional industrial systems in their innovation activity. The main objective of this study was to try to seek the impact of diverse geographical conditions on the activity of innovative firms within the regional industrial systems, and consequently to determine the boundary conditions for the model structure of regional innovation networks, taking into account the specificities of Polish economy.
