Abstract

The transition of the Russian economy to an innovative type of development requires the elaboration and implementation of a systemic state policy aimed at intensifying innovation activities in the regions. However, the resource specialization of the regional economy can have a negative effect on the ability to a sustainable development based on innovation. The purpose of this study is to identify the features of socio-economic development of the regions of resource orientation and identify the factors that contribute to the intensification of innovation activities on their territory. In order to achieve the purpose of the study, the authors did an analysis of the indicators of the socio-economic development of the resource regions, and identified their common features. In addition, a correlation analysis of the index of innovative activity of resource regions was carried out with a number of factors, such as the level of education of the population, the number of researchers engaged in R&D, and others. The strongest dependence of the innovative performance of the resource region was established with the indicators of scientific potential and volumes of shipped products of manufacturing industries. Thus, for the innovative activity of the resource region, the presence of manufacturing industries with a high level of redistribution in the economy of the region, as well as the accumulated scientific potential of the territory, is essential. The analysis showed that the state policy for the innovative development of resource regions should be based on the support of manufacturing industries that stimulate the creation of innovations and the strengthening of scientific potential
