Abstract: The paper deals with the learning and innovation strategies of manufacturing companies in the economies of transformation. The point of departure is the development of a theoretical framework dealing with innovation, knowledge and learning. The case is of two manufacturing companies in Poland, the learning strategies of which are analysed and compared. These strategies have much in common and can be seen as quite successful. Global knowledge sourcing has become important. Some common problems also exist in relation to mismatches within and between the different knowledge bases. More selective and specialized strategies of learning are recommended to enhance the competitiveness of the companies.
