Abstract
With the emergence of the evolutionary approach, tacit knowledge gained greater significance as a new internal resource of
competitiveness of companies. This paper, through the research undertaken on industrial SME in Algeria, attempts to highlight the continuous
loss of knowledge capital. Thus, it exposes the three elements on which tacit knowledge has been developed: professional experience, learning
through practice and routines. It also suggests the need for adopting a new model of growth likely to exploit remaining tacit knowledge
accumulated over the last years to adapt with the oil revenue issues in which the Algerian industrial SME is encrusted.
