Abstract

The aim of the study is to substantiate design international digital platform as a tool for the formation of cross-border research, educational and innovation spaces. In the current conditions for Ukraine, the greatest potential for economic growth is contained in the innovation and institutional spheres. In turn, mass innovation is impossible without developed scientific and educational spheres, which are its basis. This necessitates the activation and acceleration of innovative, scientific and educational activities in Ukraine, that requires strengthening international cooperation. Among the main problems of the Ukrainian innovation, scientific and scientific space are their Weak integration into the European innovation space. This indicates the presence of untapped potential in this area. A promising tool for integrating Ukrainian innovation, scientific and educational spaces into the corresponding European ones is the creation of a international digital platform that unites governments, business, research organizations, consulting organizations, patent organizations, educational organizations from Ukraine and EU countries. The state of Ukraine has the opportunity to become the creator of such a platform, which can be done in two stages. At the first stage, initiate a platform to unite the Ukrainian innovation, educational and scientific space and one of the EU countries (for example, with Poland), and at the second, connect third countries from among the EU members.

Highlights

There are depopulation and decreasing of division of labour in Ukraine
– inconsistency of actions of the authorities to implement the declared for decades plans for the development of innovative economy, which led to personnel and financial depletion of science, obsolescence of scientific infrastructure, almost complete lack of links between science and industry, low demand for innovation from business; – limited access of Ukrainian researchers to European research infrastructures and electronic infrastructures, lack of the National Roadmap for research infrastructures

Summary

Introduction

There are depopulation and decreasing of division of labour in Ukraine. It hinders Smithian and Malthusian economic growth. It’s necessary to create conditionals for provide improvement of innovation, research and educational spaces in Ukraine to provide economic growth. The solving of this problem can be find in integration of these spaces in the space of EU. – inconsistency of actions of the authorities to implement the declared for decades plans for the development of innovative economy, which led to personnel and financial depletion of science, obsolescence of scientific infrastructure, almost complete lack of links between science and industry, low demand for innovation from business; – limited access of Ukrainian researchers to European research infrastructures and electronic infrastructures, lack of the National Roadmap for research infrastructures
