Purpose: The main target of this paper is to present the implementation of the innovation policy in Polandduring the last financial and economic crisis. The main hypothesis is an assumption that if innovative activity is one of the ways of overcoming the current economic crisis, the government’s innovation policy should strongly support such activity.Methodology: The verification of the hypothesis is based on an analysis of theoretical and empirical research conducted by governmental and non-governmental institutions.Results: The analysis of literature as well as research conducted by governmental and non-governmental institutions showed that the innovation policy in Poland is undergoing a deep transition. The effects of the policy are currently insufficient.Originality: Despite substantial domestic and foreign literature about the role, targets and effects of innovation policy, there is a lack of analysis of this issue during the time of the current economic crisis.
