Znanost, tehnika, tehnologija, gospodarstvo - idu li u istom smjeru?
The paper discusses the historical technical and technological progress and its impact on the priorities developed in the context of serving its survival, sustainable development and education of the mankind. The major contributions of the scientific, technological and information progress both to the development of the globalisation and to the strengthening of the social and economic values and relations of debatable nature are pointed out. The research results and quantification data show the current status and the operational possibilities of technique and technology, as well as the use of information science and communications in the County’s production sector. Individual sectors are analysed as regards their share in the County’s economy in the last 18 years. The cooperation of domestic and international scientists and experts that has recently been realised with some of the firms in the production sector is presented in the form of a diagram. Based on a characteristic example, the assessment of the level of trust in experts in both the domestic and the international markets is given. It is emphasised how important it is for the Bjelovar-Bilogora County to be able to offer university education, to have a constant increase in the number of students, and to dispose of the professional and scientific potential needed for the strengthening of the production sector. Finally, the manner in which science, technique and technology should work together with the economy of the Bjelovar-Bilogora County is suggested.
