The aim of the study is a comparative analysis of the conditions and nature of the development of Silicon Valleys and innovation zones in different countries and in Russia. The methodology consists of empirical crosscountry analysis and comparison methods, allowing to identify innovation zones by the degree of influence (scale) on the economy and modern scientific and technological development. As a result of the comparative cross-country analysis, it is concluded that Russia has favorable conditions for creating an extensive “Silicon Valley”, especially in its regions that have large scientific and technical reserves and conditions for such development. However, such conditions and organizational measures are currently absent in Russia, which makes the comparative analysis of the impact of Silicon Valleys and innovation zones on the economic development of advanced countries in the world in terms of science and technology relevant. The article also provides an author’s assessment of the capitalization of unicorn firms created by Russians abroad, not in Russia, which confirms the need for work to create territorial associations of high-tech firms and projects.","PeriodicalId":411993,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Science","volume":"115 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117113032","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The methodology consists of comparative and structural analyses, analysis and synthesis, and the method of logical generalization. The study established the main trends in the process of development, implementation, and diffusion of innovations in scientific and industrial activities in the Russian Federation. In recent years, the innovation ranking of the countries of the world has not highly assessed the state of the innovation system of the Russian Federation. The country occupies a stable 45–47th place among 130 surveyed countries of the world with weaknesses including institutions, infrastructure, energy efficiency, and environmental friendliness of businesses, as well as the amount of investment, including foreign ones. Strong but improperly implemented aspects include the high quality of human potential, the results of creative details, and the scale of the market. The factors hindering the implementation of the innovation process have been analyzed, and despite decreasing over the past twenty years, the lack of own funds, high innovation costs, and lack of state financial support are still significant obstacles to enterprises. The process of implementing innovative activities by enterprises and their sustainable development directly depend on the state of science in the country. The analysis has shown that decisions made in the process of implementing state policy do not have a significant positive impact on its development; moreover, a number of indicators such as the number of personnel involved in research and development generally decrease annually. Thus, there is clearly a need to revise the quality, quantity, and essence of public administration measures so that the innovative and scientific potential of the Russian Federation is realized, ensuring the country’s economy to switch to an innovative development path.","PeriodicalId":411993,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Science","volume":"30 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"131793990","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The theoretical basis of the ongoing processes is the concept of the Fourth Industrial Revolution and the Concept of the Humanitarian-Technological Revolution, based on the theory of post-industrial society. At the same time, in both cases, the main driving force is scientific and technological progress. In the new world order, the leading positions will be occupied by countries with the most developed and human-oriented scientific and technological potential. The reforms of the scientific and technological complex of Russia were initially focused on entering the European scientific and technological space. Due to this fact, the main vector of transformations was aimed at institutional transformations aligned with foreign models. However, as it turned out, such an approach does not ensure the presence of the country among the global champions and at the same time poses a threat to technological sovereignty. In this regard, it is necessary to develop a new state scientific and technical policy focused on transferring the economy to the mode of functioning according to a full innovation cycle.","PeriodicalId":411993,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Science","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"121331808","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A possible solution can be found by improving the tools to support the commercialization of research results and the growth of R&D-intensive companies. A set of such tools is seen as a favorable mechanism to turn knowledge into innovation. The main idea of the article, based on a system approach, puts the adoption of strategic decisions before the improvement of the innovation mechanism. As shown in the article, the strategy of scientific and technological development precedes the scenario to develop research and innovation. Guided by the scenario, you can select the appropriate tools to support certain sciences and innovations, since such a choice depends entirely on the strategic goals, scenario, and innovation potential. These provisions are substantiated in the article in relation to Russia. Two types of strategic goals are discussed, and two scenarios of respective types are compared with each other to show the big difference between leaping forward through radical innovation and moving forward through incremental innovation. The key requirements for both types of innovation mechanisms are formulated in the context of the geopolitical and economic crisis. Turbulence brings the economic system to a bifurcation point, which makes innovation governance more responsible in making decisions, so the proposed provisions can be useful in developing appropriate regulatory tools.","PeriodicalId":411993,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Science","volume":"65 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115367218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The relevance of the topic is confirmed by the formation in the Russian Federation of a number of local monitoring subsystems that are difficult to connect with each other and do not provide in the aggregate the completeness of coverage of the scope of scientific research, development and technological work. The core element of this approach is the creation of a subsystem for monitoring scientific and technological results, evaluated by experts and organizations – recognized authorities in this field of science. The work of all other subsystems associated with the actors of scientific and technological activities, researchers, including experts, branches of science, regions of its placement, scientific journals, etc. is based on data samples presented in the central subsystem of positively evaluated scientific and technological results. The article also shows that such a system can provide not only the comparability of data from all subsystems of the R&D monitoring system, but also its completeness, transparency and resistance to voluntary and involuntary distortions. The proposed approach makes it possible to systematize attempts to digitalize the R&D sphere to ensure its full monitoring, as well as to increase the efficiency of each of its components.","PeriodicalId":411993,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Science","volume":"83 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"115609280","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Comparative and structural analysis, application of measurement procedures, and evaluation of empirical data constitute the methodology of the study. The results of the study can be reduced to a number of provisions confirmed by analysis. Firstly, in Russia, in the course of permanent reorganizations, the institutional, informational, funding, and even personnel potential (due to a reduction in the number of researchers) was greatly weakened. Thus, the impact of scientific knowledge on the innovation process was clearly reduced, although the thesis that innovations are always results of scientific activities is difficult to dispute. Secondly, we should not talk about it as a direct relationship, but through the time lags. It is they who become a stumbling block in the conducting and planning current scientific and technological policy. Thirdly, the author has showed the main problems of technological innovation in Russia, identified in the course of many years of author’s research, supporting the important conclusion about the lack of an accurate representation and measurement of the level of technological effectiveness of the economy. The author has also proposed to solve this problem by detailing and improving accounting and statistical procedures in the field of technology, e. g., by means of technological maps, as well as by introducing an indicator as technology coverage of relevant objects (enterprises, regions, etc.). The current piece measurement of technologies does not consider coverage. Such an omission causes a significant distortion in the assessment of the technological level, as well as in further studies of the relationship between basic science, R&D, and technological development.","PeriodicalId":411993,"journal":{"name":"Economics of Science","volume":"52 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"125045613","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
