The Innovation Management Unit, as an integral research unit of the
Institute of Enterprise, was established by the Rector's Order No. 58 of

grounds of a small research unit.
In September 2005, Associate Professor Krystyna Poznańska was nominated as Head of
the Department.
At present, Professor K.Poznańska continues its function as Head of Innovation Management Unit within the Institute of Enterprise.
