U radu su prikazani preliminarni rezultati realizovanog empirijskog istraživanja koje se odnosi na strategijsko upravljanje portfolijom inovacija u deset izabranih preduzeća u Srbiji. Strukturu rada čine sledeći delovi: teorijski okvir, objašnjenje svrhe i metodologije istraživanja, diskusija rezultata i zaključna razmatranja, uključujući ograničenja i smernice za buduća istraživanja.
