The intensifying processes of integration and globalisation, uncertainty of action, and the dependence of the growth of an enterprise on the acquisition and use of knowledge in practically every aspect of its operation forces enterprises to take measures enhancing their performance and management. The contemporary enterprise, seeking to survive on the market and to tackle the constant changes in its milieu, must display a high level of flexibility and be able to modify its operation almost instantaneously.From the perspective of world tendencies in the development of branches based on scientific and technological advances, Poland still displays a very low proportion of high-tech goods in its total sales. What is needed is a global approach to the catching-up process, which is facilitated, among other things, by the country’s membership of the European Union and support from its funds.The aim of this paper is to analyse and assess the efficiency of development of enterprises representing high-tech manufacturing in Poland. The basic source material employed is the data on firms that appeared on the list of 500 largest enterprises in Poland in the years 2000–2008.
