Annotation: The essential and formalized definition of the potential of the territory is substantiated, the innovative component in the unity of the “subject-process-object” approach to its essential content and performance assessment is singled out. A system of mechanisms and institutions for increasing the innovative potential of regions and territories has been developed, and the most effective directions for its use in the interests of spatial socio-economic development have been identified. Priority problems are identified, the solution of which can increase the effectiveness of the functioning of the territory. These problems were also reflected in the solutions at the Gaidar (2015) International Economic Forum in Moscow and at the representative XII Krasnoyarsk Economic Forum, as evidenced by the analysis of some speeches at the forums presented in this article. The change in the priorities of innovative development of the countries of the world in the second half of the 20th century — the beginning of the 21st century is shown. The results of research and the practice of using innovative solutions for the development of individual teams and territories, the spatial arrangement of regions and the Russian Federation as a whole have been studied and summarized. The development of the territory and its potential depends on many factors, however, in the current conditions, the increasing role of knowledge, intellectual resources, as well as the involvement of the population in the management process through the development and implementation of various programs and projects, is beginning to play an increasing role. The positive aspects of using business projects as the main mechanism for implementing programs and plans using market institutions of public-private partnership (PPP) are analyzed. The role of collectives and the population in increasing innovative activity and systemic development of territories is assessed.
