Abstract: The creation of innovations, their diffusion and the transfer of knowledge and advanced technology represent the basis for increasing the economic efficiency and competitiveness of companies at the open market. Innovations have the role of drivers of economic growth by creating greater added value to products and services, thus enabling the sustainable development and competitiveness of national economies. This paper discusses the need for establishing and networking strong innovation ecosystems, that will enable a wide diffusion of the benefits of innovation to all economic actors in the function of higher economic growth and overall social development. In that context, the paper analyzes selected innovation dimensions from the European Innovation Scoreboard, which represent the key elements of innovation ecosystems. On the example of the countries of the Western Balkans, the knowledge obtained about the conditions in the innovation dimensions can contribute to a more efficient creation of local and national strategies for the development and networking of innovation ecosystems in countries with low innovation performance.
