EN The changes in contemporary economy are widely recognized and dealt with advanced tools and methods supporting companies facing dynamics and competitiveness of market environment. The list of tools and methods is long and usually they are jointly referred to as Industry 4.0. The general idea of Industry 4.0 is to benefit from contemporary technologies to increase efficiency and competitiveness of company, however, when referring specifically to material and information flows the Logistics 4.0 term is used. Logistics 4.0 concepts benefits from advanced communication protocols, cooperation between humans and machines, which requires knowledge and skills that are provided by higher education institutions. According to authors, knowledge gap filling is a dynamic phenomenon that can be interpreted and analysed with system dynamics approach. The dynamics of knowledge gap filling could be described as goal-seeking dynamics. The loop dynamics shows that when considering the expectations and taking corrective actions, the knowledge gap can be easily filled in a given time period. The goal of the chapter is to present the original model of dissemination and absorption of Logistics 4.0 solutions developed based on literature review and authors’ experience.
