The article presents the results of a research aimed at studying the spatial polarized development of regionally oriented production systems. An overview description of the prevailing preferential regimes aimed at the formation of poles of growth and sustainable development of the regional economy is given. The main elements of the organizational and economic mechanism for the formation of innovative scientific and technological centers (ISTC), which represent a new form of such preferential regimes, are revealed. The following issues are studied: procedural aspects of ISTC creation; conditions of tax and customs preferences for ISTC members; topical issues of choosing areas of scientific and technological activities of ISTC in relation to the conditions of an industrially developed region and taking into account the conditions of the state scientific and technical policy of the Russian Federation. Also, a brief overview of the established practice of creating ISTC in the Russian Federation is presented. The results of the study make it possible to systematize the composition of management tasks associated with the development of regional initiatives on the creation of this preferential regime. So that the introduction of ISTC and the corresponding state allocations lead to effective socio-economic effects and serve the goals of sustainable development of the region's economy. The materials of the article can be useful in solving practical issues of innovation policy in regional management, as well as in scientific and practical research on the problems of effective organization and sustainable development of regionally oriented production systems.

This article presents a methodology using system dynamics to model the time-dependent progress of each one of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), as well as their mutual interactions. The hard-systems approach presented herein complements a soft-systems, cross-impact analysis approach presented in part 1. To accomplish this, a modified logistic innovation-diffusion model is used to represent the progress of individual SDGs over time. Then, matrix transposition is used to model the SDGs' interactions. Combining these two techniques into one system dynamics model, the authors propose an analytical, quantifiable, and easily learned tool to understand the complex interplay among the SDGs as a system. The new web-based tool can be used to analyze several scenarios of the SDGs over time to understand the impact of a certain policy or economic intervention. This article is the second of a sequence of two papers analyzing the interactions between the SDGs in a systemic manner.

The huge potential of innovations to achieve the goals of sustainable development is indisputable, but at the same time the task of orienting the innovation process to its most problematic areas, which is a threat to national security, arises. This issue is relevant in the context of the formation of mechanisms of interaction between the state, business and society and is an urgent scientific and practical problem. Based on the above, the purpose of the study is to analyze the main components of innovation development strategies in the framework of national strategies for sustainable development. In the study, the author improved the scheme of the relationship between development and security, which is focused on achieving development and security goals through appropriate innovation policies and development management. Taking into account the importance of innovative development, as well as the national characteristics of the relationship between it and the goals of sustainable development, a practical approach to the coherence of innovation policy for sustainable development is proposed. It is determined that for the implementation of the coherence of innovation policy for sustainable development, an analytical component is important, which will link the goals of sustainable development and indicators of the innovation system as the basis for their achievement. To determine the impact of innovative development on the sustainable development of Ukraine, the impact of the indicator of goal 9 on the other 16 goals is determined. The components of the national system «sustainable development – security» are identified and evaluated on the basis of Sustainable Development Report 2019. As prospects for using the developed methodology of institutional innovation (creating institutional conditions for innovative priorities of sustainable development) it is proposed to consider it in the context of achieving sustainable goals development (systematic integration of economic, social and environmental aspects of sustainable development) at the regional level.
