stages. (Freeman, Soete, 2001). Kulvietis (1991) argues that innovation represents a
complex creation, development, global spread and effective use of innovation in various
spheres of human activity. In his opinion, innovation must be seen as a phenomenon and a
process. Innovation as a phenomenon is any targeted amendment that seeks to change the
state of the test object to the improvement. However, the innovation as a process includes
research, development, management and stable operation in order to get a certain effect.
Knowing that the process is an activity, innovative activities can be interpreted as activities
aimed at scientific research results and inventions to use, develop and upgrade the
production or service nomenclature, to improve their production techniques and strive to
the further implementation of domestic and foreign markets. Innovation as a process in
which the knowledge obtained during the study is transformed into new products or
services, as well as approach and the European Union's research and the development
program Eureka. The innovation process value is understood as a complex design,
development, global spread of innovation and an effective application in various spheres of
human activity. Business innovation program approach as a successful new technology,
ideas and methods of commercial applications of placing on the market of new or improving
existing products and processes. Innovation is the theory, which asserts that a deeper
knowledge of the content of innovation needs to be linked to the operating concept, which
is seen as the people's active approach to the reality of a specific form of action featuring
the appropriateness of purposefulness and conditions of transformation. It should be noted
that each activity has a specific goal, it has its own means and results, as well as describes
the operation of the process. The basis of innovative activity can be regarded as a
purposeful formation of innovation and adaptation. The formation of innovative
technologies and their adaptation are considered, as well as innovative activities which are
directed towards the creation of new efficient technologies and its effective application. In
most cases, innovation is not entirely new or original product or technology, usually it is
based on only part of a just and improvement officer and the expected market effect. All
qualifiers for innovation diversity provide wider and more varied perceptions, refine, or
flesh out the previous definitions that extend to more abstract and wider shape. This
confirms that the concept of innovation as well as its nature is dynamically changing,
reflecting the peculiarities of the development of civilization, lined the continuing relevance
of his need for constant change, adapting to new market challenges as well as forcing to
change traditional attitudes and stereotypes. It should also be noted that the innovation
process involves the implementation of various innovative services organizations, public
authorities, economic development agencies, educational institutions, financial institutions,
customers, suppliers, business partners, consulting firms, business associations
(Jakubavičius 1999; Brouwer 1999; Hax, 2001; Keras, 1994; Konopliovas, 1996). As a result,
the formation of successful innovation and adaptation can only exercise the cooperation
between the company and its partners and the need for the development of its capabilities.
Being subject to the market demand it is strongly influenced by the innovative process of
the industrial company of consumers' changing needs it must constantly improve old
products and develop new ones and launch them to the market, only thus securing the
survival of the modern market conditions (Гончарова 1998; Гунин, 2000; Ковалев, 2000;
Николко 1991; Рудакова 1991). In short, the industry can be seen as follows: it is based on
the production and production technology basis - with high innovation potential and
ensures a high level of competitiveness (Янковский, 2001; Bargelis, 2002, Melnikas, 1995).
