Abstract
The high-tech sector is considered to be innovatively active, but its contribution to GDP does not change, despite the measures taken by the government. This may be due to the same behavior patterns of high- and low-tech companies. The analysis of the behavior of high- and low-tech companies was carried out according to the data of surveys of heads of domestic manufacturing enterprises. The approach for testing hypotheses about possible differences in the behavior of high- and low-tech companies in different economic conditions is based on a statistical comparison of the average values of indicators for companies in these sectors. It was found that the level of innovation activity among high-tech companies declines to a lesser extent than among low-tech companies during the crisis. In these conditions, high-tech companies are more actively using "internal reserves": they are working more to improve the skill level of staff and implementing innovation processes. During periods of high and low rates of economic growth, high-tech companies often buy new technology. The rest of the patterns of behavior of high- and low-tech companies do not differ.
