Pardubice meeting, called Contact. The paper publishes summary information of
entrepreneurs about the interest and experience with Enterprise Social Networks, and
about the tools used for internal communication. The discussion of the paper
addresses the current concerns and wishes of entrepreneurs. The paper seeks to
