Abstract
The object of the study is regional economic systems that implement innovative technological processes. The subject of the study is the economic, organizational, and managerial relations that develop in the process of formation and use of innovative and technological potential at the regional level. The purpose of the article is to study the innovative potential of the regions, substantiate the theoretical provisions and develop methodological recommendations for the development of effective ways and forms of its mobilization. Methods. The theoretical and methodological basis of the study is the conceptual provisions and scientific developments of domestic and foreign scientists on the formation and use of elements of innovative and technological potential at various levels of management, published in monographs, periodicals and materials of scientific and practical conferences on the topic of research. The study is based on a general scientific methodology that provides for the use of a systematic approach. Methods of observation, comparison, categorical, structural-functional, situational, economic mathematical methods, and the method of hierarchy analysis are used to solve the tasks. Results. The article describes the innovative and technological potential of the region as an economic and managerial category. The typology of innovation as a complex and diversified concept containing many interacting components is studied. The following essential characteristics of the innovation and technological potential of the region are highlighted. Firstly, the innovative and technological potential of the region is determined by the opportunities available to it for change. The innovation potential creates conditions sufficient to ensure the progressive development of the regional socio-economic system through the creation of innovations and their purposeful transformation into innovations. Secondly, the innovative and technological potential of the region is characterized by the presence of specific ones, both involved and not involved in production, but prepared for use in it. Third, the innovative and technological potential of the region is determined by the willingness to use the existing innovative opportunities in order to translate innovations into innovations. The structure of the innovation and technological potential of the region is studied. It is determined that of all the components of the innovation potential of the region, the most important is the labor (human) potential. It is characterized, firstly, by the level of qualification, intelligence, and creativity of the population living and functioning in the territory. It is the population, on the one hand, that is able to produce innovations, and on the other hand, to introduce and distribute them, thereby determining the opportunities and directions of innovative development. It is highlighting innovative and technological potential of the region following components, including the capacity of: organization and management technology; research and development; marketing; technology and production; personnel; potential financial base; knowledge base; natural resource. Practical value. This classification of the components of innovation and technological potential is of great practical importance. It focuses the attention of researchers and users on the simple fact that the key element of the innovation potential of the region is the subjects of innovation activity operating on its territory. In particular, among all subjects of management, both employed and not employed population in the market sector of the economy should be singled out.
Highlights
The process of adaptation of socio-economic systems to a dynamically changing external environment in modern conditions is largely determined by the ability to timely find and use competitive success factors as productively as possible
This conclusion is confirmed by the assessment of the development results of countries that have created an innovative economy, in other words, an economy based on knowledge and information technologies
The truth of these provisions is determined by the main properties of the category "innovative economy": the innovative economy is a continuous process of improvement and the emergence of fundamentally new ideas, inventions, which, as they accumulate, develop into new breakthrough innovations; in an innovative economy, knowledge plays a crucial role, and the production of knowledge is a source of growth; the innovation economy is based on information, as well as information and communication systems, space and the use of the Internet in all spheres of human activity
Summary
The process of adaptation of socio-economic systems to a dynamically changing external environment in modern conditions is largely determined by the ability to timely find and use competitive success factors as productively as possible. This process is directly dependent on the ability to continuously develop and improve. Innovative and technological potential are becoming the main engine of progress and a condition for the sustainable functioning of regional socioeconomic systems This conclusion is confirmed by the assessment of the development results of countries that have created an innovative economy, in other words, an economy based on knowledge and information technologies. Innovations are manifested because of differentiation of interests of market participants and involve the resolution of existing contradictions through targeted activities
