| description | Collaboration between enterprises includes all activities, which are
undertaken in order to achieve common goals and interests. Business
networking involves the establishment of various forms of associations and
business communities, with or without the creation of new economic entities.
The aim of the paper was to study the forms of cooperation between non-wood
forest products based small and medium enterprises, as well as to determine
the attitudes of their representatives towards cooperation and business
networking with other enterprises in Central Serbia. Research included 91
non-wood forest product based small and medium enterprises and 19
representatives of leading enterprises, which were selected based on
specifically defined criteria. Both the methods of analysis and synthesis and
comparative and statistical methods were applied in the paper. The results
indicate that almost all analyzed enterprises cooperate with other
enterprises. The most common form of cooperation is present “during selling”
and “during purchase”. The majority of leading enterprises’ representatives
are members of some of the existing associations of entrepreneurs. Based on
the analysis, it was found that there is a need for development of
cooperation between the analyzed enterprises. In accordance with that,
proposals for the improvement of business networking were given. [Projekat
