Summary/Abstract: International comparisons of innovation performance of industrialised countries place Poland much below the average European level, behind such countries as: Slovakia, Czech Republic or Slovenia. It is worth analysing what policies and tools are used by those, who achieve much better scores than Poland. Five countries – regularly acquiring the position of innovation leaders – are designated here as models: Sweden, Finland, Germany, United Kingdom and Denmark. In each case the article examines the level of expenses on research and development, organisational structure of conducting and coordinating research, channels of distribution of innovation methods and instruments stimulating innovation.
