Furthermore, public-private partnership (PPP) to attract private investment in the implementation of industrial projects determines the performance and efficiency of the interaction. Currently in Russia the macroeconomic, geopolitical factors and the positive experience of PPP development in certain sectors created certain preconditions to attract private sector resources in the economy domestic tourism. Aims. The aim of the research is to explore the interaction between the state and business, and to identify the promising spheres of development of public-private partnership in the field of domestic and inbound tourism at the regional level.Methods used are as follows: the system approach, and statistical analysis methods. Results. Possible and expected outcomes of the interaction between public and private sectors in tourism industry, entertainment and hospitality for the state, tourism destinations and business people and tourists are defined. The main directions of partnership between the state and business, ensuring the development of domestic and inbound tourism in Russia are set. The problems limiting the development of PPP in the tourism sector and the factors impeding the development of special economic zones of tourism-recreational type are identified.The experience of Samara region in the PPP helped to identify a number of objective prerequisites to develop an effective public-private collaboration and partnership that will attract private investment in the economy of tourism. The promising areas for the development of PPP in the sphere of tourism of the Samara region, such as joint projects of ecological and environmental content, are identified.Conclusion. The development of public-private partnership in the tourism sector is limited to budget constraints on the implementation of the planned projects; mostly budget financing of ongoing projects; significant reputational losses for the state and loss of capital for business in case of refuse to support a project; lack of an organizational and economic mechanism for involving citizens in projects, the RF government’s focus on big business in large-scale projects while small business sector prevails in the tourism industry.Further development of PPP and MPP in tourism is possible on the basis of: − improvement of the legislation which consolidates the relevant normative-legal acts and is reflected in new sectoral policy documents through the prerequisites, mechanisms and principles of functioning and forms of PPP in the tourism sector;− formation of the project offices of Federal Agency for tourism and regional industry departments, which will significantly increase the number of implemented investment projects in tourism, including the ones based on PPP mechanisms, will enhance coordination of the partnership’s participant cooperation and will allow to monitor the projects;− improvement of development institutions’ performance through the development of an industry developer and operator registry at the Federal and regional levels;− support of small and medium enterprises, with the improved access to government procurement of private investors-individuals;− development of training and advanced training of specialists in the organization of PPP projects in tourism.The directions of PPP development can be used by executive authorities to enhance the effectiveness of public participation in the development of domestic and inbound tourism in Russia
