Abstract

knowledge economy integrates effectively knowledge aiming to enhance organizational performance, competitiveness, and corporate social responsibility. Being a source of innovation and creativity, it attains organizational competence through the proficient and continual exchange of knowledge, it produces agile organizations and it contributes to socio-economic growth. Additionally, it enables countries to realize better results with a finer exploitation of the readily available resources they possess towards the improvement of living standards in terms of health, affluence and future progress. Furthermore, it facilitates the discovery of new opportunities for organizations and the formation of entrepreneurship-oriented societies.
Effective integration of knowledge necessitates the leverage of the major challenge of globalization. Rapid technological changes and information concentration call for heavy investment in information technology. Gathering, processing and evaluating information in the first instance, and converting it into knowledge in the second instance is a strategic goal for organizations. By bringing down interdepartmental barriers and facilitating company-wide availability and distribution of information, knowledge is disseminated within the organization.
