Success factors in transition countries

Abstract

The competitiveness of the transition countries depends on the ability of their companies to develop successful new products. Using 14 success factors proposed by Cooper and Kleinschmidt, their impact on the success of Slovenian new products was analysed, in order to obtain information needed to facilitate the development of new products in the transition countries. The comparison of the results obtained by Slovenian study with the results of other similar studies showed significant difference. It can be explained by the lack of the companies’ ability to innovate.
