Abstract

Network functioning covers all kinds of formal and informal relationships between individuals and organizations. Network structure allows enterprises to reach knowledge quickly, while saving time and money which becomes the determining factor in the changes made in enterprises. In order to define a network one can assume that it includes customers, competitors, suppliers, research organizations, schools, institutions, non - profit organizations that are linked one to another and create innovation. The nature of the network lies in the innovation process, which means creating new technical and organizational solutions as well as their transfer and application in the economy. This is possible thanks to the knowledge generated in the network, which is the result of a process of interaction and cooperation between the participants in the network. The objectives of this paper are to determine the following: what forms of cooperation are taken in business practice that entrepreneurs take together in the network and to what extent this network affects its participants.
