The formation of the human resources potential of industry has a number of strategic features related to the specifics of this industry, the complexity and high cost of training professional personnel for it (especially highly productive), as well as with the system of strategic motivation for attracting and long-term retention of highly qualified workers in industrial enterprises that meet the required level of scientific and technological development of the country. The article substantiates the importance of understanding for each participant in the implementation of the strategy of how their own values and interests will be realized in all strategic priorities. Accordingly, all strategic documents should reflect the values and interests of labor resources so that they form a highly effective human resources potential ready for activity in the industrial sector. The article defines approaches to the formation of human resources potential of industrial enterprises, reflected in state strategic documents: in the Decree of the President of the Russian Federation “On the national development goals of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030 and for the period up to 2036”, in the State Program of the Russian Federation “Development of Industry and Increasing its Competitiveness”, in the “Consolidated Strategy for the Development of the Manufacturing Industry of the Russian Federation until 2024 and for the period up to 2035”, in the Subprogram “Development of National Intellectual Capital” of the state program of the Russian Federation “Scientific and Technological Development of the Russian Federation”. The article shows the successful experience of gradual formation of human resources potential based on the functioning of the scientific school of strategizing of professor Vladimir Kvint, corresponding to the implementation of national goals and strategic directions of scientific and technological development of Russia.

The study was conducted to substantiate the strategic use of transport infrastructure complexes as an instrument for developing the region’s logistics industry. The purpose of the study is to determine the possibilities for the effective use of transport infrastructure complexes for the strategic development of the region’s logistics industry. The article assesses the participation of transport-logistics corridors in ensuring the sustainable development of logistics systems and the integration of regions into international transport networks. To form competitive advantages of regions, reduce costs, and increase investment attractiveness, the strategizing methodology of Academician V.L. Kvint was used. A comparative analysis was carried out of the cases of Kemerovo Oblast (Kuzbass) and the Xinjiang Uyghur Autonomous Region (PRC), demonstrating the positive impact of large-scale investments and public–private partnership on the development of transport infrastructure. Based on the data obtained, a stepby-step plan for implementing the strategy for the development of the logistics industry was developed, which takes into account the use of digital technologies and the synchronization of regional priorities with global trends. The study confirms that a comprehensive approach to strategizing the transport system leads to sustainable economic growth and social stability of the regions. The results obtained are of important practical significance for regional policymakers and investors, contributing to the development of effective development programs and the strengthening of national economic security.

The article examines the role of digital twin technology as a key instrument of the digital transformation of the energy sector. In economic science, N.D. Kondratiev’s long wave theory, which postulates that the development of the world economy follows cyclical patterns of prolonged periods of growth and decline (~50–60 years), has gained wide recognition. The study applies a systematic analysis of scientific literature and practical cases of digital twin implementation in the energy sector, correlating these findings with the phases of long economic cycles. Special attention is given to the ways in which digital twins can support the integration of renewable energy sources, enhance the reliability of power systems, and accelerate the energy transition. The novelty of the research lies in considering digital twins not only as a tool for optimizing individual processes but also as one of the basic innovations of the emerging sixth technological paradigm focused on sustainable development. The article argues that digital twins act as a bridge between digital and “green” transformations, contributing to the formation of a new energy paradigm. It concludes that this technology has significant potential in the context of the forthcoming sixth Kondratiev long wave.

The purpose of the article is to reconsider the industrial policy in the context of the social contract in terms of such issues as the relationship between private initiative and public policy in the industrial sector, manufacturing and rent as the sources of public welfare, freedom of trade and protectionist measures, transfer of knowledge and protection of technological sovereignty, the global division of labor and ensuring import independence, as well as negotiations on the priorities of human capital development. The hypothesis of this article is the assumption that the industrial policy is formed and corrected as a result of coordination of the interests of society, business and government on the issues of that policy in the context of the social contract that are of great importance for them. The authors have consistently substantiated this hypothesis through a single structure of consideration of each of the indicated issues: definition of the genesis, concept and place in the economic theory of categories that are a subject of choice in the context of industrial policy, identifying the role of society/business in terms of such choice, coordination of interests of economic agents in formation and correction of the industrial policy. As a result of the study. the authors come to the conclusion that in the 21^st century social contract, which is only partially put on paper within the framework of the constitution of the state, is underestimated as a tool of state regulation and self-regulation of the economics. The implicit part of such a contract, which responds most flexibly to the changes in economic, political and social conditions, is the most significant factor of successful implementation of the government economic (including industrial) policy. Due to this, such a policy should become the subject of the negotiations between the society, business and authorities to develop mutually beneficial terms of cooperation.

The article presents scientific justification for the methodological aspects of choosing priority directions of long-term technological development of new industrial technologies taking into account the external and internal threats of technological lag and modern approaches to approaches to parrying them in order to ensure the technological sovereignty of the state, the competitiveness of high-tech domestic enterprises and their further effective development. Formation of methodological approaches to the justification of program activities devoted to the long-term development of industrial technologies is aimed at integration of the scientific and technological forecasting process and selection of program activities devoted to the modern development of industrial technologies into a unified system. The authors reveal the content of the stages of collection and examination of proposals on the development of the priority industrial technologies, present the method of a multi-criteria ranging of the received proposals on developing modern industrial technologies and creating the project of the program of measures for their development. The authors describe the process and adduce an example of creating technological road maps. The implementation of the authors’ proposals will ensure increased effectiveness of the financial state support of innovation projects on development of industrial technologies and fair distribution of budget financing among the activities devoted to development of modern technologies, and establishment of transparent and stable rules of state support of technological innovation and taking risks of long term innovation projects by the state. It is suggested to continue further research to identify more effective artificial intelligence technologies and create robotic complexes.

In recent years, the green and low-carbon agenda has become a trend for various sectors of the economy, including the construction sector, which embraces both the construction of buildings and infrastructure itself, and the production of building materials. While all market participants recognize the potential of the green construction and the benefits of implementing sectoral green projects, there are several barriers that cannot be overcome without combining the efforts and potentials of the major participants – construction companies, industries, authorities and financial institutions, research and educational organizations. The purpose of the study is to prove that the effectiveness of integration is achieved through ba- lancing the capitals of all its participants in forming value chains. The proposed methodology for assessing integration capital has made it possible to assess the effectiveness of the joint capital accumulation and the resulting added green value. The authors have developed a system of indicators to assess the participants of the green integration and the levels of maturity of the integration capital. The methodology for assessing integration capital has been tested using the integration case in the construction and the production of building materials. The infrastructure of green integration is in the Vladimir and Ryazan Region, Russia. The authors develop a three-dimensional figure (triangular prisms) illustrating the states of potentials and integration capital of the actors. The analysis made it possible to prove that from the point of view of the total integration capital, in the case studied, concrete industries with a high level of technological potential are the most effective (the average value is 2.8). The main direction for forming the integration capital is mental potential. The results of the study applied in scenario modelling, in particular – in working out strategic scenarios for the development of participants in the green integration.

Competitiveness in the modern world requires a special sort of behaviour in the market. The trend of active technological development and digital transformation alongside the conditions of deep uncertainty has caused scientific interest to proactive behaviour of an economic subject. The article studies the concept of “proactivity of an economic subject” as its ability of proactive and initiative transformation of the internal environment and external conditions of their activity on the basis of anticipation of future trends and system risks. Analysis of scientific sources has been conducted using bibliometric maps (networks) based on the presence of keywords in the problem field of proactive behavior. The author has created a scientific research base to identify structural elements of proactive behaviour and its assessment. On the basis of bibliometric analysis combined with methods of network analysis and use of artificial intelligence tools the author identifies structural elements/characteristics of proactive behaviour patterns to form a complex system of assessment of proactivity. The article defines the most frequently used components and metrics for assessing proactivity in the context of the analyzed problem field: the component of strategic proactivity, proactive system of risk management, receptivity to innovation and innovation maturity, technological maturity/potential, maturity and potential of the data management system and proactive work with information. The author points out the importance of assessing the level and potential of proactivity of an economic subject and the key drivers in order to integrate relevant target indicators into the development strategy of enterprises.

The article considers a method for assessing the potential of a digital platform ecosystem of an industrial enterprise, which is a relevant area in the context of the digital transformation of the economy. The introduction of digital technologies changes the traditional principles of creating and consuming value, facilitating the transition to a multi-level modular architecture of business ecosystems. The main objective of the study is to develop a multi-criteria integration approach to assessing the effectiveness of digital business ecosystems, taking into account the basic key aspects of the digitalization potential. The article presents a methodology for calculating the Index of Integral Efficiency (IIE), which allows for quantitative measurement and comparison of the impact of digitalization on the business ecosystem, in terms of economic, operational, technical, social and market effects, which determines the necessity and sufficiency of such an assessment. The methodology is based on indicators characterizing key aspects of ecosystem interaction, including return on investment level of automation, participant involvement, competitive advantages, market share and others. The use of the analytical hierarchical process made it possible to objectively determine the weighting coefficients of each criterion, minimizing the subjective factor in the assessment. The methodological basis of the study includes system analysis, multi-criteria modeling and a bibliographic review. The paper presents a comparative analysis of existing approaches to the effectiveness of digital business ecosystems, identifies their limitations, and proposes a generalized methodology that provides a comprehensive assessment of the integration effects of digitalization. The results of the study suggest that the proposed IIE index has high predictive value, allowing one to assess the dynamics of digitalization of enterprises and their competitive positions in digital business ecosystems. The scientific novelty of the obtained result lies in the development of an index of the integral efficiency of a digital platform business ecosystem, which develops methods for assessing the feasibility of forming digital business ecosystems.

Based on the methodology of strategizing by Academician V.L. Kvint, a study was conducted of trends in the further development of the Russian medical industry, taking into account global trends. A cross-country analysis of statistical characteristics and bibliometric indicators of scientific support for the industry was conducted. The study showed that the main trends in the development of the medical industry at the global level are associated with the introduction of digital technologies in devices, equipment, and the creation of new materials, while it was revealed that Russia occupies a modest place in the world space in terms of the intensity of scientific research aimed at the development of the medical industry.

The share of the Russian medical industry market in the global volume is comparable to the share of Russia’s gross domestic product (GDP) in the world. At the same time, most of the market in Russia is provided by imported supplies, the production of its own equipment is heavily dependent on imports in terms of technology and raw materials. Almost half of the names of medical products and equipment are not produced in our country. At the same time, the increase in the production of medical products is proceeding at a steady pace, and export growth is outpacing import growth in dynamics, which indicates the prospects for the export direction of development of this industry in our country.

Taking into account the facts revealed in the work, in the context of achieving technological sovereignty of our country, the need for a qualitative strengthening of the scientific and innovative component of the process of creating new models of medical equipment and modernizing existing ones is shown.

Digitalization is becoming a key driver of economic growth, particularly in the context of growing regional disparities and limited access to advanced technologies. Against the backdrop of sanctions pressure, market transformations, and the challenges of import substitution, there is an increasing need to rethink the role of digital platforms and infrastructure in ensuring sustainable industrial development at the regional level. Under these conditions, identifying the factors that promote digital transformation and labour productivity growth becomes critically important.

This article explores how the development of digital communication channels, broadband internet access, the digital maturity of public administration, and investments in technology influence labour productivity in regional economies, with a particular focus on the manufacturing sector. The findings indicate that the impact of digitalization is uneven: it is significantly stronger in technologically advanced regions with well-developed infrastructure and high ICT competencies. Institutional conditions and the quality of government regulation, including support measures for domestic digital solutions, also play a crucial role.

The analysis is based on panel data from Russian regions for the period 2021–2023 and employs econometric modelling using fixed and random effects models. The study demonstrates that the main drivers of productivity growth are the expansion of broadband infrastructure, the digital maturity of public governance, and targeted investments in digital technologies. The novelty of the research lies in its comprehensive approach to assessing the impact of digital factors on regional industrial development. The results provide a foundation for setting priorities in regional digital transformation policies and reducing the digital divide, as well as offering guidance for optimizing digital investment strategies.
