Abstract In modern economy knowledge and innovations are key factors for competetive position of an enterprise. We observe a growing need of building and supporting relationsbetween science and business and of creating initiatives for supporting the transition of ideas and exchange of information and knowledge. Actions concerning this area also enclose the formation and development of specialized in-stitutions for business support. Observations show the increasing importance of innovation and entrep-reneurship centers. The paper presents results of the questionnaire survey of innoation ceters in Greater Poland, which was aimed at presenting the state the recognizability of these institutions, the type of acti-vity, with which they are associated, the quality of information presented by these institutions and the knowledge, to which they give access.
