Specific competitive advantages of European companies in an environment of globalisation are analysed from the point of view of strategic management.

Macroeconomic business indicators become a point of departure for further analysis of integration processes with the objective of analysing their impact on microeconomic level of doing business. Improving efficiency and sustainability of European business is a precondition for developing multinational corporations in a global framework. Implications of management strategies on flexible adjustments of companies in the global market are analysed. Original contribution of European management approaches and methods is important in conditions of discontinuity of a global environment. Perspectives of cooperation strategies between different organisational structures and their significance for consistency of European economic systems are researched.

A contemporary strategic approach of collaboration between business ecosystems and management relating to new business models in a dynamic environment are highlighted.
