SOME ASPECTS OF BUILDING­UP A NATIONAL INNOVATION SYSTEM

Abstract

The solution of the formation of national and regional innovation systems becomes fundamental for the socio-economic development of Russia. The activation of innovation activity at the state and regional levels is determined by stimulating the implication of innovations in production, creating the reliable system of commercialization of inventions. However, the orientation of the national economy on raw materials and, as a consequence, poor institutional environment appear often as a brake for innovative initiatives. The article discusses some aspects of the construction of an integrated innovation system considering the complex assessment of different issues. The key aspect of the system to stimulate innovation is the close interaction between federal and regional authorities, the implementation of a reliable governmental support of regional initiatives. However, without the interest of regional authorities in the organization of a distinctly structured local innovation process there will be no positive shifts in this direction. New models of governance, disclosure of internal resources, the realization of opportunities, high-quality organizational support for innovation and investment policies will promote the innovative activity in many economic subjects will increase coactivity of the small, medium and large businesses in the development of new ideas and implementation of scientific and technological innovations in the region.
