Zewnętrzne uwarunkowania restrukturyzacji przedsiębiorstw polskiego przemysłu obronnego w przyszłości (w świetle badań empirycznych)

Abstract

The aim of this article is to identify and analyze key external factors, which may possibly determine the future situation and restructuring processes of Polish defence industry companies. The following driving forces have been discussed: the predicted demand for armaments and military equipment on the Polish internal market, possibilities of increasing the military export as well as the influence and challenges connected with the accession of Poland to The Code of Conduct on Defence Procurement of the EU Member States Participating in the European Defence Agency. The analysis is based on the empirical research conducted in defense companies (questionnaires) supported by expert opinions including business, government agencies, scientists and economic journalists. The article discusses also the direction and methods of further scientific research within this area.
