Abstract

The paper discusses the technological specialization and patent portfolios of the Russian ‘technograds’ - the cities which are the key actors in contributing to the development of new technologies in the country.A patent analysis used for the study allowed us to identify technological domains where these cities have a significant competitive advantage and high potential for further growth. According to the research-intensity of the domains prevailing in their technological specialization, the technograds might be divided into three categories: oriented towards mostly high technologies (Moscow, St Petersburg, Tomsk), low technologies (Krasnodar, Perm), and those with mixed specialization including both high and low tech (Voronezh, Ufa, Kazan, Novosibirsk, Ekaterinburg, and Samara). To achieve the aim of the research, a new methodological approach was elaborated upon to analyze patent data for individual cities and other smaller geographical units. As a result, the paper might be of interest not only for practitioners and decision makers on the regional and municipal levels, but also for researchers in the fields of regional economics, economic geography, and economics of science, technology, and innovation.

俄罗斯技术毕业生：城市的技术概况

本文讨论了俄罗斯“技术毕业生”的技术专业化和专利组合，这些城市是促进该国新技术发展的关键角色。研究中使用的专利分析使我们能够确定这些城市具有显著竞争优势和进一步增长潜力的技术领域。根据其技术专业化领域的研究强度，技术毕业生可以分为三类:主要面向高技术(莫斯科，圣彼得堡，托木斯克)，低技术(克拉斯诺达尔，彼尔姆)，以及包括高技术和低技术的混合专业化(沃罗涅日，乌法，喀山，新西伯利亚，叶卡捷琳堡和萨马拉)。为了达到研究的目的，本文阐述了一种新的方法来分析单个城市和其他较小地理单元的专利数据。因此，本文不仅对区域和城市层面的实践者和决策者有一定的参考价值，而且对区域经济学、经济地理学、科技与创新经济学等领域的研究人员也有一定的参考价值。
