Summary/Abstract: The article presents attempts at determining the influence of region innovativeness on the type of organisational culture within SMEs, as it is the innovativeness of a region that is a crucial factor favourable to the changes in SME sector companies. Yet for such companies to be able to build their development potential and function in a particular environment, which provides access to necessary resources, means as well as information, it is necessary to possess a particular organisational culture, which stimulates willingness to change. New, properly shaped organisational culture allows responding to the changes taking place within a given company and its business environment through effective management of their development, at the same time, with the use of all the support mechanisms provided by a regional policy.
