Managing the Development of Integration Processes in the Innovation Environment of the Region

Abstract

Relevance. Integration processes form the modern image of the innovative model of the economy through the successful functioning and competent interrelation of the structural elements of the innovation system at the national and regional levels. The control levers of such systems should be effective, and therefore sufficiently diverse and flexible, so as not to limit the system, but to ensure the processes of its functioning and development in the conditions of the singularity of the external environment. A new approach to the study of the problems of innovative development of the region can be offered by the theory of systems with an emphasis on a new understanding of complex self-organizing structures, as well as the concept of open innovation, which allows participants in the innovation process to establish partnerships based on knowledge exchange.The purpose of the study is to find a model solution to the problem of managing the development of integration processes in the innovation environment of the region.The objectives of the study can be formulated as follows: identification of problems of innovative development of the territory; study of theoretical constructions of the development of integration processes in the innovation environment of the region; theoretical justification and development of a model solution for the formation of interaction of stakeholders of the innovation process based on the model of the «Quadruple Innovation Helix».Methodology. The research methodology consists of general scientific methods of cognition, statistical methods, as well as principles and methods of a systematic approach.Results. One of the important problems of the innovative development of the territory is the low level of integration processes that ensure the interaction of regional stakeholders. A model solution to the problem of managing the development of integration processes based on the principles of managing a region as a complex dynamic system and an open innovation model is proposed. This model reveals the problem of balancing the innovative development of the region from the perspective of taking into account the interests of participants in the innovation process.Conclusions. The use of the proposed model allows a comprehensive and systematic approach to the study of the possibilities of effective interaction of participants in the innovation process in the region with the observance of the conditions of balance and synergy as a result for the evaluation of the integration process.
