Abstract
The railway industry is one of the key areas of transport activity for many countries, in particular for the Russian Federation. The innovative development of this industry and of its corporate actors is an important aspect of development of economy and infrastructure of the respective countries. An innovative ecosystem creates an enabling environment necessary for such development. The objective of this article is to analyze the components of the innovation ecosystem: the ways of organizing innovative activities, suggesting their classification into internal and external types of organizations. The study is based on a comparative analysis of the practices of the most competitive world railway companies. The results show that railway companies using tools of both external and internal types are characterized by a high level of competitiveness and technological development. If the external type of organization of innovative activity has a positive effect on reducing costs, and also promotes active interaction with core external companies, then a one-sided orientation to it leads to an increase in dependence on third-party organizations. Carrying out research and development within the framework of own innovative laboratories and R&D centers allows railway companies to significantly reduce this dependence, but leads to a high level of costs, increases the risk of obtaining results that do not correspond to the best world standards. The optimal and effective way to organize the innovation activity of a railway company is to implement a mixed type organization, which includes elements of independent research and development and active interaction with external organizations, companies and experts. This choice is confirmed by the activities of most of the analyzed companies. At the same time, it is important to choose the directions of technological development, within which it is possible and expedient to conduct independent research and development at the present time, as well as those requiring further development of competencies for independent research activities as well as for participating in innovative consortia.

The current stage of robotics and sensorics, neurotechnologies and development of the world economy is determined artificial intelligence, new manufacturing by the formation of the paradigm of the sixth technologies, industrial Internet, distributed wave of innovation and the rooting of the registry systems, wireless technologies, virtual principles of the industry 4.0 [1]
Fulfillment direction of development in these conditions is of the tasks of breakthrough development and the massive digitalization of all sectors of the mass digitalization, including through economy and social sphere
Implementation of projects based on the use of Industries with the necessary scale of «end-to-end» digital technologies, implies production can become the drivers of the need to modernize the innovation ecosystem breakthrough scientific, technological and at both the macro and micro levels
Summary
The current stage of robotics and sensorics, neurotechnologies and development of the world economy is determined artificial intelligence, new manufacturing by the formation of the paradigm of the sixth technologies, industrial Internet, distributed wave of innovation and the rooting of the registry systems, wireless technologies, virtual principles of the industry 4.0 [1]. Implementation of projects based on the use of Industries with the necessary scale of «end-to-end» digital technologies, implies production can become the drivers of the need to modernize the innovation ecosystem breakthrough scientific, technological and at both the macro and micro levels. One of the industries with the necessary improving the innovation ecosystem of leading scientific and technical backlog, scale and domestic state-owned corporations and potential synergistic effect on related industries companies with state participation, especially is the railway industry [3]. Regarding development of the digital agenda, Objective In this regard, the objective of this including: article is to analyze the components of the development and approval of digital innovation ecosystem and the ways of organizing transformation strategies; innovative activities, to suggest their classification appointment of deputy officials in state comprising internal and external types of corporations and companies with state organization with regard to railway transport.
