Summary/Abstract: The research problem posed in the article is the method of supporting innovation in an enterprise, using entrepreneurial discovery. It is an element of prioritization of activities undertaken within the framework of a region’s innovation policy. The aim of the research was to define the concept of the enterprenurial discovery and to analyze its role in the mechanism of enterprise support. The research was carried out based on the example of the Małopolskie province. The above mentioned research was based on the analysis of primary sources and included, e.g. the results of the analysis of a technological foresight, included in the report Technological Perspective Kraków – Małopolska 2020 and the provisions of the Regional Operational Program of the Małopolskie Voivodship 2014–2020.The analysis showed that the process of entrepreneurial discovery means broad promotion of entrepreneurship and requires close cooperation, participation and involvement on the part of all stakeholders from the public sector. One of the most important conclusions is the fact that the willingness of stakeholders to act within their scope of competence is essential for the project’s success.
