Technological Entrepreneurship as a Factor of Development and Restructuring of the Global Economy
Tadeusz Pindór
Abstract
The main problem dealt with in the publication is the role of technological entrepreneurship in stimulating the processes of development and restructuring of the global economy. The purpose of the paper is to identify and analyze the factors of development and restructuring of the global economy against the background of the challenges and circumstances arising out of compliance with the criteria of sustainable and inclusive development. The paper provides an overview based on the analysis of the world literature, including the Polish contribution, as well as on the experience gained thus far by the leaders in the civilizational transformations of the last decades. The processes illustrating the emergence of a new economic map of the world were based on information concerning the ranking of the technology readiness level — i.e., the capability of an economy to absorb technologies increasing productivity of production factors. This parameter is currently the key element of the economic competitiveness of the individual states. The sources of this information were global reports issued by the OECD, various UN agencies, the World Economic Forum, as well as independent international analytical institutions. The common access to products created as a result of applying disruptive technologies implies a large number of civilizational threats of a hitherto unknown scale. It is advisable to undertake formative actions addressed to users of new devices concerning responsible use of the achievements of inventors and manufacturers of new products.
