Abstract: The aim of this paper is to investigate the possibilities of EU goals realization in Poland. The EU goals in 2014?–2020 financial perspective are following: the rise of employment index to the 75% among persons aged 18-64, the rise of R&D outlays to the level of 3% GDP, building knowledge society etc. Internal threats analysis joined with the economy modernization in the regions of Poland indicates the EU goals cover the needs for regional development. The regional economies in Poland are characterized by low level of employment, low expenditures on R&D and by the significant development divergence in the NUTS-4 units level. Therefore cohesion policy makes opportunities for regional development. Macroeconomic threats were not the clue of the analysis, however literature points: low level of internal savings, limited possibilities to invest, institutional and financial weaknesses. Internal threats are easier to foresee, but external, joined with the European funds, euro stability, economy cycle seems to be more risky.
