Abstract
Abstract. The article considers the topical issue of intensifying the innovative activity of small and medium enterprises. In the course of the research, the structure of innovative activity of the enterprise was allocated to the subsystems: «Innovative activity», «Production and economic activity» and «State support and financial support». Scientific economic and mathematical methods such as a priori ranking, linguistic analysis, and cognitive modeling are used to identify and graphically represent the cause-and-effect relationships of the system. The a priori ranking allowed identifying indicators that from the point of view of scientists should be used in the analysis of subsystems. As a result, the causal links between the performance subsystems of small and medium-sized enterprises are identified and the indicators that have the greatest impact are identified. According to the simulation results, in order to intensify the innovation activity of small and medium enterprises, it is necessary to focus on the efficiency of the existing infrastructure of small and medium enterprises support, study the supply and demand in the market of business development services which will ensure compliance of services in the field of services for business development with the actual needs of small and medium enterprises. On the basis of the analysis of the received ratios of consonance, negative and positive influence it is possible to choose an acceptable strategy, for will promote increase of activation of innovative processes of small and average enterprises. Keywords: innovation activity, production and economic activity, small and medium enterprises, SME support, business development.

Highlights
To ensure the development of innovation activities of small and medium enterprises, it is important to develop new methods of forming and activating elements of the innovation system, which must meet the objectives of socio-economic trends, as well as direct their action to overcome disparities in innovation development
The aim of the article is to form a system of indicators and model the activation of innovation of small and medium enterprises, which in turn allow to determine the causal links between indicators of subsystems of innovation of small and medium enterprises and to identify indicators that have the greatest impact
We propose to allocate the structure of innovative activity of the enterprise on the following subsystems: «Innovative activity», «Production and economic activity» and «State support and financial support»
Summary
To ensure the development of innovation activities of small and medium enterprises, it is important to develop new methods of forming and activating elements of the innovation system, which must meet the objectives of socio-economic trends, as well as direct their action to overcome disparities in innovation development. This applies to the promotion of access to resource markets (including financial), improving infrastructure, organizational and methodological support, and training of entrepreneurs. The development of areas of innovation system management and management decisions involves determining the relationship of quantitative and qualitative components, which should be based on the use of economic and mathematical modeling, which allows linking the current state of objects and scenarios with future states of the system
