Abstract

The innovative development of small business and private entrepreneurship represents a key driver of sustainable economic growth, especially in developing and transition economies. This development hinges on two critical dimensions. First, small businesses play an essential socio-economic role by contributing to employment, local development, and income generation within the framework of a market economy. They serve as flexible and adaptive units capable of responding quickly to market changes and consumer needs. Second, despite their significance, many small business entities face structural and operational shortcomings such as limited access to finance, insufficient technological capacity, and weak institutional support. These constraints often hinder their ability to grow and integrate innovation into their business models, thereby slowing down overall development in this sector. Moreover, the disconnect between scientific research and practical application further delays the commercialization of innovative ideas. Effective collaboration between academic institutions and small businesses is therefore essential to close this gap and stimulate innovation. By fostering an ecosystem where innovation thrives, small businesses can become more competitive, efficient, and resilient. Understanding these two interrelated aspects is crucial for policymakers and development institutions aiming to support entrepreneurial ecosystems. Tailored policy interventions, innovation support programs, and access to knowledge resources can help overcome existing barriers and unlock the innovative potential of small and private businesses.
