AB  - Challenging business environment in Information Communication Technology today requires firms to adapt quickly to associate new challenges and competition and present a particular problem for small businesses especially with limited resources. This study aims to study the meaning of knowledge sharing, partnership and identify the characteristic of barriers in social activities in these small and medium companies. Knowledge sharing is a process of identifying existing and accessible knowledge and transferring and applying this knowledge inside or outside the organization with better, faster and cheaper tools. The partnership is loosely-coupled system where the participants are neither linked by capital (joint venture) nor through joint efforts on specific projects or business areas. The findings of barriers in knowledge sharing and partnership are compared and the result can be used to aid decision making in companies for improving social activities practice among leaders, employees and partners from various agencies in today’s global market.
