RATIONALE
In contemporary economy, we observe the growing importance of service sector, with the simultaneous expansion of service functions in industry and agriculture. In many respects, the traditional boundaries between services and manufacturing are becoming less clear. On the one hand, there is the industrialisation of services and, on the other hand, an increasing emphasis on the service component in manufacturing activities, which is often linked to the development of new technologies. The above observations indicate the growing importance of the service sector for socio-economic development. Therefore, the following question arises: how may smart manufacturing and services contribute to a competitive advantage in contemporary world economy? The World Economy Research Institute’s 14th Annual Conference on competitiveness will seek to answer this question.
We invite papers related to the following topics:
· theoretical and practical aspects of international competitiveness in particular with focus on service sector, especially knowledge intensive business services;
· competitive position of selected economies, taking into account the development of service sector;
· economic policy, in particular in the area of service sector development.
