It also applies to manufacturing enterprises that offer tangible products combining it with the art of processing information and intellectual assets into added value for the customer. A characteristic feature of manufacturing enterprises is assigning their employees a double role: a knowledge user and, at the same time, an internal source of specialist knowledge. In the situation of dynamically changing market conditions, there is an additional need to acquire new knowledge (in practice: often to buy knowledge) from the company’s environment. A solution in the above-mentioned scope in Poland may be digital repositories of science assets as tools for knowledge transfer to SMEs. Research institutes are an important element in the process of knowledge transfer from scientific units to the economy (e.g. they offer their services in open access). The paper presents the concept of such a repository preceded by a diagnosis of the existing state, an analysis of the recipients of the deposited content and the examination and analysis of the requirements of potential users of the repository.}, type={Article}, title={A Digital Repository of Science Assets as a Tool for Knowledge Transfer to Manufacturing Enterprises}, URL={http://journals.pan.pl/Content/120075/PDF/624_cor.pdf}, doi={10.24425/mper.2021.137684}, keywords={knowledge transfer, digital repository of science assets, manufacturing enterprises}, }
