Furthermore, key concepts of the Strategy werecontrasted with entrepreneurship-related concepts presented in the regional development strategies of two other countries – Finland i.e.: Finland’s Regional Development Strategy 2020 (FRDS 2020) and Bulgaria: The NationalRegional Development Strategy of the Republic of Bulgaria for the period 2005-2015 (NRDS 2005-2015). The analysis leads to a conclusion that the role of entrepreneurship in the Polish regional development strategy isunderestimated compared to the position it has in the Finnish and Bulgarian strategies; thus, it is necessary to increase its importance not only in the key assumptions of the strategy but also when implementing theseprinciples of the regional development policy in practice.}, type={Text}, title={The role of entrepreneurship in regional development strategies (based on the Polish National Strategy of Regional Development 2010-2020)}, URL={http://www.rcin.org.pl/igipz/Content/53612/PDF/WA51_72441_r2014-t26_EuropaXXI-Plaziak.pdf}, keywords={enterpreneurship, Europe, Poland, regional development, regional policy, strategy}, }
