| Abstract [eng] |
The high-technology industry is one of the most important drivers of economic growth and competitiveness in the European Union. Continuous technological development creates favourable conditions for innovation, expansion of production, and export growth. Increasing global demand for advanced technologies encourages European Union firms to strengthen their positions in international markets, while various factors significantly influence the dynamics of these processes. Exports represent one of the key components of high-technology sector development, enabling countries to diversify their economies, reduce dependence on domestic demand, and strengthen international economic ties. Despite the importance of the high-technology industry, the European Union faces strong competition from the United States and Asian countries, raising the question of which factors actually determine the growth of high-technology exports in the European Union. |
