The article notes that in modern conditions of the transitivity of the economy, the basic component of the mechanism for forming the foundations of sustainable development is to ensure the competitiveness of domestic goods and services in the national and international markets. For the purpose of analyzing the state, pressing problems and prospects of innovative development in Ukraine, quantitative and qualitative indicators of innovative activity have been investigated. It was revealed that during 2010-2019 there was a decrease in the number of organizations engaged in research activities and the number of employees engaged in research and development. It was found that, according to the State Statistics Committee of Ukraine, there is a tendency to an increase in expenditures (in million UAH) on research activities, but this was due to the depreciation of the hryvnia, because in dollar terms, there has been a decrease in the level of funding since 2014. It was revealed that in accordance with the ratings of the European Innovation Scoreboard 2020, Ukraine loses its positions every year – 34th place in 2014, 35th place during 2015-2018, 36th place in 2019 year and the penultimate 38th in 2020, ahead of only Romania. Taking into account the fact that the financial support of innovative activity in Ukraine is still very limited, in order to form the prerequisites for its increase, it is necessary to introduce a set of measures to mobilize existing and potential financial resources, including by attracting investments.

To solve the problems of stimulating the development of innovative activity of domestic enterprises, a number of regulatory acts have been developed in Ukraine today that regulate relations in the sphere of investment in innovation. National legislation defines the following forms of investment of innovative activity: state (municipal) investment, commercial investment, social investment, foreign investment, general investment. In order to receive financial support, the subjects of innovation activity whose innovation projects are listed in the State Register of Innovation Projects shall submit to the State Innovation Financial-Credit Institution (its regional branches) innovative projects and all necessary documents, the list of which is determined by it. The subject of innovative activity, the innovative project of which has been competitively selected, may receive one or more types of financial support from the innovative financial-credit institution, depending on the competitive procedure established by the competitive procedure. Financial support for the implementation of innovative projects can be provided in the form of successive tranches as a result of monitoring the progress of project implementation.The analysis of the structure of state financing of innovation activity by types of economic activity of subjects of innovation in 2018 allows to determine the priority branch of chemical and petrochemical industry. Investing of own funds of subjects of innovative activity is realized through capital investments and financial investments. Structural analysis of sources of financing of innovative activity in Ukraine allows to distinguish the overwhelming share of own funds of the enterprises in the total volumes of financing of their innovative activity. But in the conditions of insufficient level of state support of innovative activity of enterprises and instability of their financial results, as the main source of own funds for investing, the role of financial and credit providing of investments by the subjects of the financial market significantly increases.

Relevance of the research topic. Increasing capital is one of the most important challenges for ensuring sustainability and growth opportunities for small enterprises both in Ukraine and abroad. Successful activities of small enterprises require constant competitive advantages through the implementation of innovative development models. Integration of Ukrainian enterprises into the global economy is impossible without investing in their innovative development, aimed at overcoming the economic lag behind developed countries, because in an era of dynamic globalization changes, competitiveness depends primarily on the ability to implement innovative projects, which requires significant financial resources. Formulation of the problem. Attracting financial resources to the innovative activities of small enterprises is especially problematic. The main reasons for this situation are high interest rates in Ukraine, the reluctance of the banking sector to lend to projects with a high degree of uncertainty and the weak development of non-traditional forms and methods of attracting financing in Ukraine. Analysis of recent research and publications. The problems of innovative activity of small enterprises and the mechanisms of its financial support were investigated by A. Bondarenko, G. Wozniak, O. Denysenko, V. Zianko, A. Kuznetsova, M. Melnyk, V. Nevmerzhitsky, Yu. Nikitin, Dong Xinyin, N. Stasyuk, A. Cherep, S. Khvalynsky and others. Setting goals, research objectives. The aim of the article is to determine the economic content of the financial mechanism and find out the sources of financing the small enterprises innovative activity and to develop ways to increase the efficiency of small enterprises financial mechanism of innovative activity in Ukraine. The method and methodology of the study.

Purpose. The aim of the article is generalization of theoretical and methodological approaches to determining the effectiveness of innovative activities of the enterprise, the study of requirements, criteria and evaluation indicators. Methodology of research. General scientific and special methods are used in the course of research, in particular: monographic, analysis and synthesis – at research of concept of efficiency of innovative activity and approaches to its estimation; system analysis – in determining the state of innovation in industrial enterprises; tabular – for visual presentation of the analysed statistical data; abstract and logical – in determining the possible areas of innovative activity of enterprises of different sizes. Findings. There is an unstable trend of increasing the share of industrial enterprises that have implemented innovations (products and / or technological processes) in the total number of industrial enterprises, and an increase in the cost of innovative activity for the analysed period. It is determined that the best result is observed when implementing new or significantly improved low-waste, resource-saving technological processes, which indicates the dominance of process innovations. It is proved that the main source of funding for innovative activity is the own funds of enterprises, whose costs are growing annually and whose share is 87.7%. At the same time, most funds were spent on the purchase of machinery, software and equipment, iюeю on the renewal of material and technical base and modernization. There is an increase in the number of profitable enterprises, which indicates an increase in efficiency, as well as an increase in operating profitability and all activities of enterprises, but much higher rates are typical for micro and small enterprises, indicating their higher innovation activity and efficiency of modern development. Originality. Methodological approaches to determining the effectiveness of innovative development of enterprises have been improved, which, unlike existing ones, are based on incurred costs for innovation, volumes and sources of funding, reinvestment of profits, innovation activity, share of innovative products and increase profitability to substantiate possible directions of innovative development and implementation of measures to implement the results of research and development, taking into account the specifics and size of the business entities, the state and dynamics of the internal and external environment. Practical value. The use of generalized systematized methodological approaches to determining the effectiveness of innovative development of enterprises will allow to assess the results of the enterprise in each area of innovation based on the implemented innovative solutions in the current period and in the medium and long term. Key words: innovations, efficiency, technologies, products, development, enterprise, attractiveness, results, methodology.

Topicality. One of the problems of the state innovation policy in Ukraine is the abolition or suspension of financial privileges for the subjects of innovation activity due to the lack of transparency of the mechanisms of their distribution. However, complete rejection of state financial support o innovation, that is one of the most widespread instruments of innovation policy in the world, does not correspond with the interests of innovative development of the state. As a solution of this problem at the regional level could be the mechanism of financial support for innovative projects on a competitive basis. Aim and tasks. The purpose of the article is to develop organizational and economic mechanisms of innovative development at the regional level and to discover the source of formation of their financial support. Research results. The article proposes a mechanism for competitive selection of innovative projects to receive funding from local budgets, which, unlike the existing ones, is as transparent as possible, ensures competitiveness among applicants and takes into account the priorities of innovative development of a particular region through the following procedure: the committee for selection of innovative projects is formed on the principles of participatory involvement of representatives of all stakeholders - authorities, business, science, education, community, determines the terms of competition and announces the competition; the competition is open to anyone who has ideas on the announced theme; the selection procedure occurs with maximum transparency and the announcement of the criteria, the selected projects receive funding from the local budget at the expense of the development budget; audit. It is envisaged that economic support for the competitive selection of innovative projects is carried out on the basis of partnerships and financial support from local budgets. The following mechanisms have been proposed: public-private partnership financing through equity participation; granting tax exemptions for other taxes paid to regional budgets; investment-oriented tax benefits, which provide for the exemption from income tax on the financial results of enterprises that are not withdrawn from business and reinvested in innovative projects. Conclusion. Implementation of the proposed mechanisms will ensure transparency of the project selection process, competitiveness among applicants, financial support from different sources and taking into account the priorities of innovative development of a particular region.

The methodological basis of the study is the current abstraction, analogies and theoretical generalizations - generalization of existing approaches to ensuring the innovative activities of industrial enterprises, justification of the need and highlighting the main problems of introducing innovation processes in domestic enterprises; methods of system, comparative and economic-statistical analysis - to study the state of innovative activity of industrial enterprises of Ukraine; graphic - for visual representation and schematic and graphic construction of theoretical and practical provisions of the study; abstract-logical - for the logical generalization of theoretical principles and formulation of research conclusions. The object of research is innovation. The subject of the research is the current state and directions of increasing the innovative activity of industrial enterprises. Dynamics of innovation activity and process of introduction of innovations in the domestic industryare analyzed. Data on implementation of innovations at domestic enterprises are presented. The structure of sources of financing of innovative activity of industrial enterprises of Ukraine is formed. The factors that impede the activation of innovative activity in modern industrial enterprises are considered. The ways and directions of the problem of activation of innovative development of the enterprises are offered. The directions for innovative activity increase of the industrial enterprises of Ukraine are offered. Thus, based on the conducted research, the most promising areas for increasing the innovative activity of industrial enterprises should be: effective cost management and reducing the cost of production; application of international product certification and standardization of production processes as components of quality management; support of innovation ideas and proposals; improving the level of production organization through the use of upgraded equipment and advanced software; introduction of the latest production technologies and reduction of the duration of the production process; use of modern methodical methods of financial support of innovation activity; introduction of innovative products into the production process and increase their share in the total volume of products; establishing close cooperation with business partners. Conclusions and prospects for further research. Thus, the results of the research indicate the presence of a number of problems in intensifying the innovative activity of industrial enterprises. With the help of the analysis of innovative activity of domestic industrial enterprises the main problems which constrain innovative development of the enterprises are revealed. Mostly financing was carried out at the expense of own funds of enterprises, and the volume of expenditures on innovation activities at the expense of foreign investors, the state budget and lending is observed at a fairly low level. The declining dynamics in the areas of innovation in domestic enterprises and their low share in the volume of industrial production is a manifestation of forced compulsion to increase imports of new equipment and technologies, manufactured products and reduce export operations for domestic innovative products. According to the obtained results the directions directed on activization of innovative activity of the industrial enterprises are formed. The implementation of the proposed measures will significantly increase the level of innovation activity of industrial enterprises in Ukraine, stabilize the accelerated process of renewal of production, effectively use domestic and foreign investment for innovation. Further research on the issue may concern the formation of modern methods of assessing the innovation potential of industrial enterprises and the formation of a mechanism foren hancing the irinnovation activity, which will provide a significant increase in the level of innovation activity of industrial enterprises, stabilization of production renewal processes, expedientuse of internal and attracted external investment ininnovation.

The main features of the modern educational and scientific space are the rapid realization of knowledge, the ability to effectively operate scientific results, the development of new technologies and their spread in the world, the competition for intellectual and financial resources. Under such conditions, the ability of universities not only to disseminate but also to create new knowledge through research, to ensure their social and economic efficiency, are the main criteria of global competitiveness. Transforming the domestic science, education and production, defining strategic guidelines for innovative development, ensuring economic growth and the most effective distribution of available resources, especially through the improvement of the universities efficiency in the context of their intellectual, financial potential and academic reputation realization are important tasks of the state on the way to building a competitive national economy. The purpose of the article is to identify and evaluate the relationship between the results of research activities at Ukrainian universities, their financial potential and academic reputation. In accordance with the objectives, the article describes the existing sources and organization of academic research financing at Ukrainian state higher education institutions (HEIs), the scientific and innovative activity efficiency indicators are systematized, the comparative analysis of results of research work of universities of Ukraine taking into account sources and volumes of their financing is carried out and the interrelation between these indicators of scientific and innovative activity is estimated. The object of the study are the classical universities of Ukraine, which occupy leading positions in the national rankings of HEIs, in particular the ranking of universities according to Scopus. Analyzing with the help of information posted on the websites of the HEIs, the sample indicators of scientific and innovative activities of universities, their staffing and financial support, it was found that not always the scale of HEIs in its quantitative dimension affects efficiency. The analysis showed that there is no direct relationship between the financial potential of universities and the achievement of the highest scientific results. Thus, the amount of funding for scientific activities has a significant impact on the level of achievement of HEIs and its employees, but is not always used effectively. Important in the market environment is effective financial management, diversification of funding sources, targeted use of financial resources provided for research and innovation of universities, which in globalization allows to ensure a high level of research, an important place of Ukrainian universities in world science and international rankings, their competitiveness, among others, as well as the innovative development of the country as a whole.

The development of any economic system involves the transformation of the basic characteristics of its participants. In this case, the development itself can be both traditional and innovative. Currently, it is important to consider the innovative type of development at the enterprise level, which means a purposeful process of finding ideas, preparing innovations and their implementation, to increase their efficiency, and for society - to increase needs, the state - to increase the competitiveness of national products in the international market. It is obvious that the development of innovative activity of the enterprise is one of the decisive factors of its successful development. The purpose of this study is a comprehensive study of the theoretical origins of management of innovative entrepreneurship, the formation of a systematic view of the features of innovation management of the enterprise in modern business conditions. A comprehensive study of the theoretical origins of management of innovative entrepreneurship development was carried out, in particular, the emergence of views on the essence of such concepts as “innovation”, “innovative enterprise”, “innovative entrepreneurship”, “development of innovative entrepreneurship” were analyzed in the article. The authors suggest their own interpretation of such categories taking into account the analysis of domestic and foreign approaches and theoretical provisions for this problems in the modern understanding. Also, a systematic presentation of the features of management of the innovative activity of an enterprise in modern economic conditions was formed. The authors believe that for successful management of innovative development of the enterprise there should be a "smart" management system of innovative development of the enterprise. The purpose of the IDE management is to increase the competitiveness of the enterprise - the stable market position for continuous development in a constantly changing external and internal environment. Features of managing the development of innovative entrepreneurship at the present stage are the following: the ability and readiness of the economic entity to positive change, progress; the sequence of management actions that realize the innovation potential; quantitative changes in the relevant "growth points"; qualitative changes based on cooperation and rivalry between market participants for better conditions of production, purchase and sale of goods. It should be noted that management of innovation entrepreneurship development should have the support of the state in the context of Ukraine's innovation policy. The prospects for further research are related to the improvement of the innovation entrepreneurship management system as a key element for increasing the competitiveness of modern enterprises in a constantly changing external and internal environment.
