Summary/Abstract: There are still very few studies about success factors of cooperative undertakings from the perspective of small enterprises. In practice, every company focuses on certain aspects which, from its point of view, are the most important. Such approach causes the identification and recognition of success factors to be tendentious and subjective. Accordingly, it can be pointed out that further study concerning the problem of success factors, is still needed. The purpose of this research is to present the main success factors of small-sized enterprises in cooperative undertakings. The study used both the scientific literature and empirical observations. The main results of the research indicated that the success of cooperative joint undertakings is dependent on: reliability, responsibility, relations, honesty, communication, reciprocity, risk, priorities, adaptation and production-technological aspects.
