Abstract: In all developed countries, innovative enterprises are part of the economic environment, contributing actively to increasing employment, supporting competitiveness in global, European and regional markets, improving the quality of life. This is possible because innovation was based on the main mechanisms of knowledge transfer (TCS) represented by: the development of the network system; enhancing education and continuing education efforts; consulting practice; supporting partnerships in the field of scientific research; developing licensing practices; encouraging entrepreneurial actions, etc. The present paper addresses the factors and mechanisms of knowledge transfer, trying to advocate the initiation of coherent actions to overcome the present state of Romania as a modest innovative country compared to other EU member states. Also, it is not to be neglected that Romania is competitive from the point of view of the low costs of production, the capacity of the use of communication and computing technology, but in the absence of targeted, financially supported and constantly updated actions, this advantage will be diluted.
