The article deals with the innovative mechanism of the new economy in the aspects of regional and national peculiarities of its functioning in the global and EU space. The general tendency of strengthening the orientation of national economies towards international trade in services, internationalization of research networks and expansion of creative human resources have been determined. Contrarily, evaluating the results of the Lisbon Strategy has demonstrated the need to prioritize employment, productivity and social cohesion to achieve global leadership. The concentration of scientific and technical potential of the leading countries of the international market on breakthroughs for economic development is an important tendency in the conditions of globalization. It has been shown that the implementation of new economy ideas sharpens competition for the skilled labour as a major component in research, innovation and entrepreneurship. At the same time, there are processes of transition from being an emigration country to being an immigration one. A comparison of EU and Chinese investment policy has been made, demonstrating the potential of using national sources, community mutual funds and fiscal federalization. It has been argued that the development of innovative products through the integration of science and production is an important factor in the development of new economy.

Knowledge has been widely recognised as the most important factor of production in a "new economy". The production, dissemination and utilisation of knowledge are therefore essential for development. Some countries, Malaysia among others, have embarked on an ambitious plan to use knowledge as a base for economic development, by-passing earlier stages of industrialisation. Some commentators have, in contrast, asserted "that it is doubtful that the knowledge revolution will let developing countries leapfrog to higher levels of development" as "the knowledge economy will actually expand the gap between rich and poor" (Persaud, 2001:108). The paper discusses this controversy by arguing that the knowledge-gap (k-gap) is in fact a precondition for development. It is, however, no natural phenomenon but it is constructed by experts and governments. Socio-economic indicators are used to show that the existing global knowledge gap is widening between Southeast Asia and the OECD countries and within ASEAN. Malaysia, whose government has pursued a vigorous strategy of knowledge development is moving ahead of other ASEAN nations, but falling behind industrialised countries. Factors explaining the situation are outlined in this article.

The purpose of the article is the analysis and development of scientific and technological potential in the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union. In the presented material, based on the use of the system analysis method, the scientific and technical potential of the Member States of the Eurasian Economic Union was investigated. Then, using the logical method, it was revealed that the number of research centres was reduced, the volume of internal costs for research and development was reduced, and the number of personnel employed in the scientific and technical field was reduced. In the study, using statistical and comparative methods, it was found that up to 90% of the scientific and technical potential is concentrated in the Russian Federation. The paper analyzed the digital transformation of national economies, which established that states have digital potential, created conditions for its development, but there is an uneven distribution of innovative and digital infrastructure in the territory of the Eurasian Economic Union, which complicates the development of scientific and technological potential. In the study, using factor analysis, a conceptual model for the development of scientific and technological potential was proposed, which will ensure a rational and effective policy in the field of innovative and digital development of the member states of the Eurasian Economic Union. In the ending of the study the main conclusions and results of the work are presented.

Innovative processes are the foundation of the current method of management and a means of providing competitive advantages to individual enterprises (firms), industries, regions, countries. Strengthening the innovative orientation of the socio-economic formation of Ukraine seems to be a strategic task of the national financial policy, guidelines for the creation of a competitive state economy. A significant basis for the development of Ukraine’s competitive advantages in the international arena is the innovative activity of industrial production entities. The formation of innovative activities of current enterprises insists on the development of a fresh mechanism of interaction between producers and customers on the basis of coordination of their interests. Creators of innovative ideas and producers of innovative products (services) are obliged to anticipate the need for new goods, to encourage customers to use new technologies and new products in their activities. Therefore, the innovative activity of the enterprise as soon as possible must be used to use an effective tool – innovation management, which involves the use of tools, methods, technologies of management throughout the formation of innovation policy of the enterprise. The current circumstances of highly competitive markets necessitate the renewal and modernization of production technologies, development and production of new competitive products, the application of new approaches to management and organization of production, which can only guarantee investments aimed at innovation. Thus, the object of scientific research in the area of management of innovation investment processes is to identify more flexible opportunities for mobilization of financial resources and improve the mechanism of their direction to innovative development. Since the creation of innovation policy of the enterprise must focus on the market and the consumer, market research should be conducted, which should be preceded by a thorough study of the innovative product.

The relevance of the topic of the article is directly due to the increased interest on the part of government agencies, business circles and the scientific and economic community to the problem of stimulating the processes of creation, replication and economic promotion of innovations, and ultimately-the growing objective need of the national economy in a favorable innovation environment. Venture capital plays a role in maintaining the flow of innovative products in the economies of a number of countries around the world. However, venture capital is still not a well — established phenomenon in most national economies, if we consider this phenomenon as a system that is essential for the search and introduction of new ideas and technologies into socio-economic life, and not as scattered precedents for financing young high-risk, but fast-growing and promising innovative companies. Based on these fundamental provisions, the author of the article, first, describes in detail the subject structure of this system, characterizes the interaction between special funds, start-up companies and their final investors-large high-tech industrial corporations, which in many cases forms the innovative mechanism of venture capital. Secondly, it examines the factors, the history of the formation of venture capital, shows its national specifics, place and functions in specific countries of the modern market-capitalist economy, including the United States, the EU states and Japan. Third, it assesses the Russian innovation and investment environment, the possible role in them and the prospects for the development of venture capital institutions in Russia.

Purpose – This paper aims to discuss the interview held with Professor John Bessant conducted by Professor Peter Totterdill. John Bessant has been active in research, teaching and consultancy in technology and innovation management for over 25 years. He currently holds the Chair in Innovation and Entrepreneurship at Exeter University where he is also Research Director. Design/methodology/approach – This wide-ranging and insightful interview looks at the challenges of implementing workplace innovation and the realities involved in the process. It covers questions concerning the importance of innovation to businesses coming out of recession and the relationship between employee involvement and innovation. Findings – Professor Bessant also discusses the challenge of releasing individual potential and how to harness random creativity. He looks at the “starter conditions” for workplace innovation as well as the factors that mitigate against sustaining it. Practical implications – Key to sustaining workplace innovation, he argues, are a number of elements including momentum, self-belief and confidence, appropriate resource, leadership and empowerment. In addition, the implementation of workplace innovation does not occur as one big hit but a series of small steps which evolve and develop. Originality/value – New technology via intranets and social media also help to mobilise a lot more participation. Technology now provides the potential to reach every employee and their involvement can be instantaneous. This can create a notion of shared creativity, the Facebook process of “good idea, I like that, why don’t you try that?”
