The development of the global economy is accompanied by growing environmental pollution, which has led to a change in attitudes and a need to promote sustainability. Modern innovation policy is becoming increasingly environmentally oriented. The purpose of this paper was to estimate the current situation of eco-innovation’s development in Slovakia. Eco-innovation Index analysis results showed that, in general, Slovakia is in the group of countries that are moderate innovators, with an innovation performance below the European Union average. Eco-innovation generally positively influences the environmental, economic, and social growth of companies that gradually adopt sustainable development. Therefore, it is convenient to identify the eco-innovative performance of Slovakia as well as to analyze the critical issues, which may also influence the desired positive development of eco-innovation in the future.

“…However, there is still space for an improvement, as Overall Eco-innovation Scoreboard of Slovakia is below average within the standards of the EU. For achieving the improvement of this situation it is convenient to focus mainly on the support of exports of products from eco-industries, employment in ecoindustries, research and development in the area of environment, energy research within the open system of innovations and also research in other areas connected to the environmental policy of Slovakia (Loucanova et al, 2015).…”

Ecological innovations are the object of interest in many areas what has subsequently reflected in the fact that the interest of companies in their implementation has increased. Research, development and implementation of ecoinnovation is a global phenomenon supported by the policies of most countries as well as the EU. However, not only research and development of innovation is significant, but especially their implementation and adoption should be in the interest of companies. The paper brings the results of the survey in which we have monitored the perception of ecological innovations in different age categories of Slovak respondents. The Kano model is the primary used survey method. The results denote a low level of acceptance of environmental innovations by domestic customers
