Abstract

Globalna ekonomska kriza je ostavila veliki broj posledica. Da bi se one prevazišle, potrebno je u postkriznom periodu sprovesti različite mere na makroekonomskom i mikroekonomskom nivou. Veliki broj razvijenih zemalja i zemalja u razvoju je kao ključne poluge u postkriznom periodu prepoznao sektor malih i srednjih preduzeća (MSP), tako da je najveći broj mera makroekonomske politike usmeren na podsticanje njegove konkurentnosti. U prošlosti mala i srednja preduzeća su konkurentsku prednost uglavnom gradila fokusiranjem na specifične tržištne niše, fragmentirane grane ili vođstvom u troškovima, dok u savremenim uslovima poslovanja sve značajniji izvor njihove konkurentnosti postaje sposobnost inoviranja. Međutim, pošto su kapaciteti malih i srednjih preduzeća za uvođenje tehnoloških inovacija uglavnom ograničeni, potrebna je jaka makroekonomska podrška za povećanje inovativnosti MSP. U ovom radu će upravo biti objašnjene mere kojima se može uticati na povećanje inovativnosti MSP. Takođe će biti analiziran uticaj inovativnosti MSP na njihovu konkurentnost i konkurentnost privrede u kojoj posluju. Poseban osvrt biće na analizi inovativnosti MSP u Srbiji.
