Knowledge economy, organisational change and knowledge-based regional development - challenges for economic geography. The paper views the emerging knowledge based economy as an important future research topic for economic geography. Significant changes in the innovation process are characteristics of the increasing global integration of economic activities. The emerging knowledge economy is reflected in the shift from scientifically and technologically based innovation processes to new forms of knowledge creation, which are dominated to a lesser degree by technology. The growing importance of service and organizational innovations in innovation systems of advanced economies is combined with wider diversity of knowledge requirements, which include not only technological know-how but also the integration of economic, organizational, and sociocultural knowledge and competences. The aim of the paper is to indicate the complexity of these processes of change and to show that understanding the territorial dimension of the emerging knowledge economy involves major theoretical, empirical and methodological challenges for economic geography.

In scientific literature there is no defining explanation and no relevant theoretical model of knowledge and information. Consequently, the definition of the knowledge economy is very eclectic and vague. As a result of the research, we have presented the definition and the general schematic model of knowledge and information. Knowledge is a product that is hard to define due to its nature, which makes it difficult to determine its value It is natural when it is difficult to determine the value of the knowledge as a product it is actually impossible to commercialize it. There is also no adequate statistical mechanism for assessing the knowledge economy. The issue has been insufficiently studied scientifically both in theoretical and quantitative parameters’ point of view. All these and other factors complicate the formation of a knowledge-based economy in developed countries. As for developing countries, in the best case there are only discussions on these issues.

The present context of the knowledge-based economy and society has brought relevant changes with respect to how innovation has been conceptualized and explained. This chapter discusses the characteristics of learning and uncertainty as intrinsic components of innovation over the course of time. A number of views that explain the innovation process are discussed in terms of evolutionary momentum, from the science-push strategy to the market-pull model, culminating in the holistic, integrating view of innovation. The case study illustrates the path of technological development of a Portuguese footwear company, based on the licensing of technology, the capacity for continuing learning and absorption, and a culture of innovation as key elements for success.

Purpose – The purpose of this paper is to examine the challenges and opportunities for the transition to a knowledge-based economy in the Arab region. Design/methodology/approach – Both descriptive and comparative approaches are used, together with the framework and definition of “knowledge-based economy” often used in the international literature to examine the challenges and opportunities for a transition to a knowledge-based economy in the Arab region. Findings – The findings support the hypothesis concerning the challenges and opportunities for transition to a knowledge-based economy in the Arab region. This transition is seriously impeded by several political, social, economic, institutional and organisational obstacles and impediments. Overcoming the major challenges hindering the transition to knowledge-based economies will involve changing the economic structure by shifting from (rent-seeking) natural resources-based (oil) economies to knowledge-based economies in the Arab region. Originality/value – This paper is valuable because it fills the gap in the Arab literature by presenting a more comprehensive analysis and investigating the challenges and opportunities for the transition, which previous literature has failed to adequately discuss. Moreover, the paper supports the efforts aimed at enhancing knowledge-based economies in the Arab region. The findings imply that it is essential for the Arab region to overcome challenges by implementing sound strategies for their transition to knowledge economies and improving and enhancing appropriate investments in human capital, effective institutions, relevant technologies and innovative and competitive enterprises to facilitate such a transition.

Introduction. The modern conditions of enterprise operation have led to changes in management reporting approaches and have caused more discussions in nonfiction about its identity with intracompany reporting. Informatization of society, globalization processes in the economy and its sustainable development have led to the expansion of management reporting functions and to clear definition of main characteristics of intracompany reporting, which is created by the staff for its internal use with the adherence of principles of confidentiality. The impact of external factors, which are mostly negative nowadays (economic crisis, restrictions caused by the global pandemic, unfair actions of competitors, cyberattacks) require qualitative developments of intracompany reporting forms, which should ensure rapid detection of the negative changes at the enterprise and timely provide the information for its effective elimination.The purpose of the study lies in scientific and theoretical justification of the concept «intracompany reporting», in determination of the role for enterprise management and also in outlining the principles of reporting formation and techniques of its preparation taking into account the modern conditions of enterprises activity.Methods. In the research process the following methods were used: theoretical generalization, comparison, abstract-logical for distinguishing the concepts of «management reporting» and «intracompany reporting»; grouping, generalization,  analogy,  analysis and synthesis for identifying the principles of formation of intracompany reporting and its qualitative characteristics; modeling, induction and deduction, structural-logical, tabular for establishing the stages of reports formation at the enterprise and the techniques of its preparation.Results.

In today’s information society and knowledge based economy one of the main development factors is the use of electronic forms of creating and conveying information. However, there is a terminological and management problem with the volume of the processed information as well as the increasing number and variety of forms of presenting and conveying the information. In the last few years the fields of socio-economic sciences as well as technical and engineering studies have encompassed a new keyword – “content”, which in the Polish terminology is usually translated as “treść”. The language of economy, management and IT have lastingly embraced such terms as Content Management, Enterprise Content Management, Content Marketing or the most recent ones – Social Content or Content Governance. Content is an abstract and multi-meaning term whose use, despite its huge popularity, leads to many ambiguities and causes many interpretation problems. The first research question posed in this paper is – for how long has the term content been functioning in our environment? The paper presents the evolution of electronic information forms processed in IT systems for several decades now. The paper offers a broad definition of the term content as well as its most recent form –intelligent content. The second research problem presented in the paper involve the relations between the term content and the classic hierarchical concept – i.e. the Data–Information–Knowledge–Wisdom model (DIKW). The first conclusion is the statement that content is a category that encompasses the following processed in electronic form: data, information and the part of knowledge that can be formalized and recorded, i.e. explicit knowledge. The second conclusion from analyzing the functions played by content in the process of the organizational creation of knowledge is that content is the most important strategic medium in knowledge management within an information and knowledge based society.

During the late 1990s and early 2000s, the belief in a knowledge-based economy has grown; not just amongst academics, but also policy makers, consultants and managers. Nonaka and Takeuchi’s (1995) work The Knowledge Creating Company was among the first to recognise that organisations that manage their knowledge efficiently, have a competitive advantage over organisations that do not succeed in doing so. Based on this understanding, a number of knowledge management frameworks and models have emerged which highlight how to improve the identification, creation, transfer, and documentation of knowledge. These will be discussed further in Chapter 3. This introductory chapter starts with a definition of key concepts and terms, including data, information and knowledge; explicit and tacit knowledge; and the three levels of where knowledge resides (the individual, group, and organisational level). It also briefly explains how processes of managing knowledge at an organisational level can help organisations learn over time, create an organisational memory, and build on what has or has not worked in the past. The concept of knowledge management is thus linked to organisational learning and innovation (Argyris & Schoen, 1978; Gorelick et al., 2004; Senge, 2006). The final section of the chapter provides a range of knowledge management definitions and an overview of the ‘three generations’ of knowledge management.

The knowledge-based firms can both flourish and grow and stimulate employment and economic growth. Iranian Knowledge-based firms’ protection law is the protection of small and medium knowledge-based firms which are at their elementary steps of growth and don’t have enough attraction to investors. Knowledge-based firms’ protection law in Iran faces to serious challenges that causes this law will not reach to its aim, same as the other protection laws for reducing unemployment and increasing the economic growth. The aim of the study is investigating of structural challenges of knowledge-based firms in Iran. First challenge is about the definition of these kind of firms which weren’t designed in accordance to demand and the knowledge economy and the learner's economy has been ignored. Second challenge is related to performance mechanisms in financial support and providing the facilities for these kind of firms, which reveals the weakness of mechanisms against the economic surplus and corruption. These challenges caused gaps including the weakness of needed mechanisms for the illegal subsidy banning, dependent situation of the innovation and prosperity fund, Khosoulati pressures, enterprise approach of the government, governmental inter-authority competition and the weakness of participant attraction of the public and private organizations that hinder the movement towards a knowledge-based economy.
