Abstract
Research and development is becoming a global phenomenon implemented on a purely collaborative basis. This leads to the need to search for partners, resources and ideas outside the company. Active development of information and digital technologies in the international practice has promoted gradual emergence of new forms of innovation intermediaries, which have not yet been applied in Russia. We suppose these new forms could be successfully implemented into the Russian innovation ecosystem. The present research is devoted to searching ways to unite the innovation ecosystem concept with the theory of innovation intermediation, emphasizing specific types of innovation intermediation and fundamental mechanisms thereof, supporting incentives and the role in an innovation ecosystem. The research results may be implemented into managerial practices in order to improve and increase the innovation feature and competitiveness of regional innovation systems of the Russian Federation and of concrete enterprises in particular.
Highlights
The number of objects of the innovation infrastructure is expanding at a very rapid pace
An increase in the number of intermediaries in the innovation sphere, whose functions are performed by objects of the innovation infrastructure, does not solve the task of integration of the national innovation system of Russia
The Russian practice of establishing the innovation infrastructure for Russian regional users’ innovations - the destination of the lion’s share of the budgetary resources – has been developed de facto guided by the logic of industrialization mainly based on replication of production and infrastructure projects
Summary
The number of objects of the innovation infrastructure (business incubators, business accelerators, technological parks, innovation centers, centers for technology transfer and commercialization etc.) is expanding at a very rapid pace. The concept of innovation ecosystem is gaining strength and recognition. This theory describes evolving interrelations between economic actors, changes of innovation activity models and their relations with external environment (Mercan and Goktas, 2011). According to this approach, development, implementation and distribution of social innovations considerably influence innovation growth and economic development in the. From our point of view the integration of the ecosystem approach and the innovation intermediation theory in order to research regional innovation systems is of particular interest. The research results may be implemented into managerial practices in order to improve and increase the innovation feature and competitiveness of regional innovation systems of the Russian Federation and of concrete enterprises in particular
