Gaining competitive advantage in the contemporary business world requires entrepreneurs to quickly adapt to the changes occurring in the ever more dynamic environment. The tendency related with transition from competitiveness to cooperation was very distinctive in the World in the last twenty years. Nowadays initiatives in this direction are also undertaken in Poland. One of them is the Cluster of Innovative Manufacturing Technologies created in Lower Silesia. Its strategic goal is to support development of the region economy and reinforce competitiveness of manufacturing companies. The essence of the cluster performance poses a very complex issue because for many years competition was the base of planning and introducing enterprises' strategies. Contemporary business units need to move from this approach to the attitude founded on a smart collaboration. Due to the lack of a data base in the field of manufacturing innovative products in cooperation of independent organizations in Poland there was undertaken an effort to collect and analyze information enabling 'cluster-like' integration of the manufacturing environment.
