Abstract

At present, in the field of building an innovative intelligence system in the company, considerable attention is paid especially to the technological side of this system and the description of its basic elements. The aim of the research is to provide a comprehensive view of building an innovative intelligence system in the company from managerial, information and organizational support. The research consists of questionnaire research and interviews conducted in Slovak companies with the intention to find out the current status of innovative intelligence systems in Slovakia by the content, organization, personnel and information aspects. The authors offer a summary of theoretical knowledge in the field of management—innovative intelligence systems. Summarizing these findings enriches the theoretical basis of management, especially in the field of innovation management. A detailed description of the individual processes, activities and actors of the innovative intelligence system model can serve for a better knowledge of the issue and its successful management. The proposed model of the innovative intelligence system includes the identification of individual actors, their tasks and the decomposition of its main process. The formulated recommendations are a valuable tool for company managers. Adherence to them will ensure the successful implementation and operation of an innovative intelligence system in the company.
