Technology transfer as a tool for managing the regional innovation economy

Abstract

Relevance. The Russian economy is moving to a new innovative level of development, and actively implemented projects in the field of digital transformation form the basis for creating a long-term and secure information and telecommunications infrastructure capable of providing high-speed transmission, processing and storage of large amounts of data, which will be available to a wide range of enterprises.The purpose of the study is to identify the role of technology transfer in the management of the regional innovation economy and current trends.Objectives: to study the indicators of Internet use by the population for ordering goods and services in urban and rural areas; to assess the dynamics of gross value added of the ICT sector and GDP; to assess the demand of economic and social sectors for digital technologies; to propose ways to solve these problems of digitalization of Russian enterprises.Methodology. The methods of system analysis, deduction and induction, analysis and synthesis are used.Results. Russian enterprises are experiencing significant difficulties in the process of technology transfer to the digital space due to the lack of deep readiness to accept and use open innovations, as well as due to restrictions on the free exchange of intellectual property results and insufficient level of asset sharing. These factors can slow down the pace of technology transfer of enterprises and create obstacles to their competitiveness in today's digital business environment. It is necessary to actively develop technology transfer mechanisms that promote the exchange of knowledge and resources in order to increase efficiency to the new challenges of the digital economy.Conclusions. Economic measures of technology transfer, including bans on access to foreign digital products and services, have not only negative consequences. Currently, consumers in Russia who are accustomed to using digital solutions from foreign manufacturers are faced with the need to switch to domestic analogues of technology as a result of the restrictions imposed.
