The concept of national innovation systems (NIS) appears to be an attractive idea on the grounds of policymaking, as it is expected to provide straightforward measures to boost a state's competitive advantage. This paper presents Israel's system of innovation with the main trends of its development, as well as key agents and linkages which shape their relationships. The study forms the basis for a question of NIS transferability and adaptability, and it demonstrates considerable limitations of the NIS emulation in different environments and economic settings, pointing to the evolutionary and country-specific characteristics of the innovation system. The unit of the analysis has been chosen due to the outstanding achievements of Israel in the field of innovation, strongly embedded in the unique attributes of the state, hence, being a particularly illustrative case for the study.

Koncepcja narodowych systemów innowacji (NSI) niejednokrotnie jawi się jako relatywnie proste do wdrożenia narzędzie służące podniesieniu konkurencyjności kraju. Artykuł prezentuje system innowacji Izraela, wraz z głównymi kierunkami jego rozwoju, kluczowymi elementami oraz występującymi pomiędzy nimi powiązaniami. Studium empiryczne izraelskiego NSI jest podstawą do zarysowania problematyki adaptowalności narodowych systemów innowacji. Przedstawiona analiza pozwala wnioskować o ograniczonym zastosowaniu rozwiązań wypracowanych w innych krajach w kreowaniu NSI i wskazuje na ich ewolucyjny, wyrastający z unikalnych uwarunkowań danego państwa charakter. Izrael, ze względu na wysoką innowacyjność gospodarki oraz specyfikę czynników kształtujących system innowacji, stanowi wyrazistą ilustrację podjętej tematyki; stąd jego wybór jako jednostki analizy.
