Resources gained from tenders have been gradually increasing since Hungary joined the European Union. The overall objectives of projects financed by EU tenders need to be closely connected to the goals – like increasing the innovation potential – as it is emphasized by European strategies. Innovation intermediary organizations play a significant role in the innovation process. According to the literature, innovation intermediary organization received high amount of development support between 1991 and 1994. During the years before Hungary joined the EU, the national innovation system was supported by several public and pre-accession funds. Resources available for innovation intermediaries in the decade before and after 2004 are not closely examined in literature. The present article tries to supplement this incompletion with the description of the resources between 2004 and 2012. The main goal of the article is to introduce with what kind of financial assets Hungarian innovation intermediary organizations were supported. The article also wishes to highlight the related financial problems of the organizations. In the article we introduce financial support – and its spatial distribution – available and gained by innovation intermediary organizations. In the article, after summarizing the related literature, we introduce our research and its main results. Based on the results of our national level research examining innovation intermediaries, we compare the distribution of these resources to the number and management effectiveness of these organizations.
