Impacts of modern technologies while identifying and unleashing intrapreneurs' potential

ENThe scientific literature on intrapreneurship still has many areas for deeper investigation. In recent years, there has been an increasingly growing interest in intrapreneurship: companies came to an understanding of the importance of innovativeness and found new business models triggering innovative growth, along with the possibilities for the creation of new products or services. Intrapreneurs were described by Pinchot (1985) as people who focus on innovation and creativity, turning creative ideas into profitable businesses within an organisational environment, while modern technologies are a great medium to identify and unleash intrapreneurs' potential. The purpose of the present paper is to examine how modern technologies can help promote the intrapreneurial culture in companies which could lead to sustainable competitive advantages. To answer the research question 'How to unleash the potential of modern technologies while enhancing intrapreneurial activities', the literature review and case studies were conducted based on qualitative semi-structured expert interviews. Keywords: intrapreneurship; modern technologies; effects, corporate performance; efficiency; effectiveness; international and domestic companies; technological intensity. [From the publication]
