The features of state regulation of innovation in Ukraine at the present stage are investigated. The directions of innovation policy in Ukraine are analyzed, the features of investment and innovation in the Kharkov region are highlighted. The role of entrepreneurship in introducing innovations is clarified. The state of innovation in Ukraine is analyzed by international indices: Global Innovation Index, Bloomberg Innovation Index, Global Competitiveness Index. It is emphasized that in the current environment technological development should provide a set of measures, including targeted support for priority areas of innovation, creating a favorable economic climate, stimulating interest in the implementation of scientific and technological achievements, and the inflow of investment into fixed capital through a powerful legislative base. It is noted that in the modern economy, a noticeable and relatively quick success in the technological as well as socio-economic development of the regions can only be achieved by ensuring high market competitiveness of the manufacturing sector of the regional economy based on its innovative, structural and technological restructuring. Attention is focused on the fact that the process of innovative development in Ukraine is increasingly characterized by the increasing role of the regional component, and regional innovation policy is becoming an important factor in the economic and social development of the country. It is proved that the innovation activity carried out in any society and leading to the creation of an innovative product that represents the latest achievements in the field of technology, technology, organization and management cannot occur in the economy without attracting investments in the production potential of societies. Structural adjustment processes taking place in Ukraine should not bypass the scientific and industrial potential of the regions. That is why the strategy of innovative development of the national economy should include the development of each individual region. Each region should have its own priority development areas in accordance with its own scientific and industrial base, based on the potential of the region’s production capabilities, focusing on available resources and market needs.

The paper offers insights to foreign and domestic studies on building and utilization of labor potential which has revealed the lack of knowledge of innovative labor potential which in modern realia makes the most valuable strategic asset of company development. The current classification of the structural elements of labor potential has been specified and complemented by adding an innovative component which includes physiological, demographic, psychosocial, intellectual, qualification and value-based components. Evaluation of the nature of the innovative labor potential category has allowed to identify its core elements (intellectual and creative) as well as the stages of its implementation: innovative thinking, innovative activity, innovative efforts. The following factors influencing the company innovative labor potential formation have been identified: globalization, modernization and informatization of manufacturing processes, government policy in the area of education and science, national and regional innovation policy, etc. Regional specifics that underpins the local business innovative labor potential has been revealed affecting sector-specific regional development; the level of regional innovative infrastructure development; the education level of the employed population; the availability of business R&D potential; business innovation activity level. The study has also identified the key trends in building and enhancing the company innovative labor potential which traced a decline in active working age population; an increase in the share of employed population with higher and secondary vocational education, etc. The research findings on the degree of innovative activity development of company labor potential have demonstrated: a high education level of the workforce (53% of the employed have higher education degrees; insufficient level of creative activity and utilization of intellectual potential. The conclusions provide evidence on the lack of an effective framework on managing innovative labor potential and ultimately – low innovative capacity in the manufacturing sector. It is argued that the main reasons for underutilization of employee innovative labor potential are the ineffective methods of labor potential management, the lack of a clear motivation and stimulation strategy (50%) along with the failure to use employee creative potential (29%). The proposed model of building an innovative labor potential ranking which combines the capabilities and benefits of rating and rating management allows for reasoned decision-making in a targeted and sound stimulation and motivation of innovative and inventive activities.

The article identifies the problems of state regulation of innovation in construction and substantiates the main directions of improving its efficiency. The Bloomberg Innovation Index was used to assess the general state of innovation in Ukraine. Dynamic analysis of Ukraine's position in the ranking of the Bloomberg Innovation Index as a whole and by individual sub-indices of 2018–2020 revealed such problems as the reduction of production of high-tech goods, labor productivity, intensity of research and development. The study of innovation management was performed using a situational approach. It is established that the state regulation of innovation is mainly based on the methods of indirect influence. It is emphasized that in the conditions of economic crisis it is expedient to prefer methods of direct state regulation. The analysis revealed a range of problems related to forecasting and programming of innovation development, organization and coordination of relevant bodies in the implementation of innovation policy, regulation, financial and investment support for innovation, insufficient stimulation of demand for innovative products, unsatisfactory state of protection of intellectual property rights. The problems of state management of innovation activity are specified. The imbalance of the branch, national and regional programs of innovative development coordinating was revealed. Problems and directions of development of infrastructure of innovative activity are defined. Perspective directions of technological renewal of construction are defined, in particular development of resource-saving, energy-efficient technologies, introduction of Building Information Modeling technologies. The organization of public and private mortgage funds is offered, which will allow to receive financial resources at a low interest rate. It is established that the underdevelopment of the financial market of Ukraine most slows down the solution of problems of financing innovative activities in construction through the attraction of credit, venture capital, state budget funds for innovative development of the construction sector.

As of now, the mineral resource complex (MRC) is playing a crucial role in the Russian economy. In a situation when the resource base is becoming problematic and the economy of knowledge begins to hold sway, the stability and competitiveness of the complex will depend on innovative technological development in many ways. The factor that is becoming ever more crucial for the MRC is the use of new knowledge and technologies: the rights to results of intellectual work, technologies that allow extraction and economic exploitation of scarce and hard-to-reach resources. The conducted analysis has revealed that the Russian MRC currently demonstrates low innovation activity and lacks new technologies conducive to efficient technical and economic implementation of numerous new projects. Development and widespread introduction of domestic innovative technologies, equipment and materials are becoming the concerns of vital importance. Considering the role of MRC in the Russian economy, growing complexity of the resource base, sanctions from a number of states, the current situation in the innovative sphere may hardly be accepted as satisfactory. The indicators of the economic development testify to the existing discrepancy between the role of MRC in the Russian economy and the results of innovation policy of domestic extracting companies

The aim of the work was to evaluate the dynamics of regional innovation development and compare the Russian regions according to their innovation efficiency, used resources, and achieved results. To estimate direct and indirect innovation effects, this study used the data on Russian regions according to variables of the innovative product volume, the share of high-tech products in the gross regional product (GRP) structure, the number of used patents, and investment in innovation activity for 2006–2017. To obtain a representative sample, a cluster analysis was applied as a preliminary step, which made it possible to select a group of regions that were most advanced in terms of their innovative development. Output-oriented data envelopment analysis models were applied for Malmquist Productivity Index calculation. The obtained results indicate the average growth of total factor productivity of regional innovation development over time. The main source of innovative development is largely derived from the economy of scale, while the effectiveness of regional innovation systems is basically increasing through broader resource bases, rather than through its effective utilization. The research findings can be applied to diagnose regional innovation effectiveness, justify public investment in research and development (R & D), and identify the priorities of regional innovation policy for specific regions.

Innovative development is a prerequisite for the long-term sustainable functioning of agro-industrial enterprises. Activation of the innovation process, considered as a prerequisite for economic growth, is constrained by the lack of formalized decision-making apparatus and the assessment of its consequences. In order to manage the innovative development of agroindustrial enterprises in contemporary conditions, it is necessary to study the theoretical and methodological foundations of modeling and forecasting of their innovation activity, which has become a characteristic tendency of the economic situation in agriculture in recent years. The complexity of agricultural production and its specificity determine the peculiarity of approaches and methods of managing innovation activity, combining different types of innovations, strengthening the role of the state in their promotion. The agrarian sector of the economy is practically completely dependent on foreign manufacturers of technology, which, of course, also reduces the level of food security of our country. The existing innovative potential in agriculture in Ukraine is not used in full. The meaning of state innovation policy is that, while maintaining the accumulated scientific and technical potential to the maximum extent, and develop mechanisms that stimulate not only the development of innovative processes, but also the development of their results. The main directions of innovation policy in agriculture include: provision of legal regulation of innovation development and protection of the interests of its participants; implementation of direct and indirect support of agricultural producers in the creation and development of innovations; definition and implementation of the priority development of agrarian industrial complex; development of effective forms of partnership and cooperation, formation of appropriate organizational and economic structures; training of personnel in the field of innovation activity; priority development of material and technical base; development of international cooperation in the field of innovations. The state, based on the recommendations of science, should be called in a timely manner to send agribusiness clear and clear signals about the most promising areas of production activity, to orientate and direct its business activity in the necessary direction for society, to indicate ways to overcome the lag of our agriculture from the level of highly developed countries of the world.

This paper outlines the main approaches to understanding the concept of "innovation" and "innovation policy", and defines that today in scientific practice, two main models of innovation are identified: "innovative" and "catching up". We have determined that nowadays, it is important for Ukraine to move to an "innovative" model as soon as possible and to develop its own capacities. In order to achieve this, it is necessary to be on the same level with technically more developed western neighbors to function effectively in the new European political realities. This is extremely important for the further effective economic development of the state, on which its social sphere depends. That is why, the study and improvement of the state's innovation policy is being highlighted and updated today. For a better understanding of their own development opportunities, it is suggested to study the experiences of other countries that have already undergone similar stages of formation. In particular, the focus is on economic and technological development, which is the basis for innovation in all other areas. The paper presents a classification for the main types of state innovation policy of various countries according to Y. Kharchenko; defines the main features of the innovation policy in Ukraine and outlines the main guidelines for its further development. As a result of scientific literature analysis, it has been found that much has already been done for effective innovation development in Ukraine. Nevertheless, it is necessary to continue the work in this direction, including studying the experience of other countries, improving the regulatory framework, stepping up scientific and technological progress, economic development and reviewing the main strategic goals of the state's innovation policy. Institutional and legal support of innovative activity in Ukraine is at the stage of formation, at the moment its main elements are created. However, the legal framework for regulating innovation processes in Ukraine requires expansion and improvement. The need to adopt a legislation on state regulation of technology transfer activities can be emphasized. The main effective mechanism for implementing the innovative model of economic development in Ukraine is the system of technological parks. The practice confirmed the high contribution of technological parks to the promotion of innovation activity at the regional level. All the above facts point to the rapid development of the state innovation policy in Ukraine, which is due to the relevance of this sphere of public administration for the countries that are still undergoing a transformational period.
