THE PROSPECTS OF DEVELOPMENT TAKING INTO ACCOUNT THE POSSIBILITIES OF THE INNOVATION SPHERE

Abstract

In the article the issues of domestic innovative sphere and companies’ interaction are considered. It is noted that the innovative sphere exists and develops independently as such in the Russian Federation.

Purposes / tasks. The purposes of the article are: analysis of the reasons of innovations’ low demand from the domestic companies; a search of counteraction measures to existing shortcomings of innovative sphere and companies’ interaction; a research of changes of both internal, and external characteristics of the innovative environment and its approach to the EU countries’ standards in the beginning of the 21st century.

Methodology. Methods of the economic and statistical analysis. Theoretical base of the article comprise the national and foreign researchers’ works in the field of innovation management, technological management, and that of the companies’ and economical general development.

Results. Poorly positive dynamics of patents growth in comparison with a volume of R&D costs is established in this researching. Almost similar dependence between dynamics of innovative goods and services sales growth in comparison with technological innovations costs was discovered in analysis. The received total integrated estimates of dynamic level of the RF innovative economic development during the period from 1998 to 2015 proved the existence of poorly positive tendency of such dynamics growth. To coordinate companies’ interests of development with innovative environment opportunities, the scheme of interaction among innovative organizations and the companies within a full innovative cycle is off ered.

Conclusions / importance. The carried-out analysis of Russian innovative sphere shows that despite the state support measures which has been taken in recent years, it stagnates and exerts the insufficient impact on economy and society in general. Poorly positive dynamics of patents growth compared to R&D costs, and also similar dependence of innovative goods and services sales growth depending on technological innovations costs is also revealed. It is established that one of the main reasons of insufficient positive infl uence of the innovative sphere on economy is the lower level of development of the most part of the innovative sphere of the Russian Federation, compared with that of the leading EU countries, and support by other factors infl uencing its development.
