ABSTRACT The aim of this study was to analyze the influence of the design of management control systems (MCSs) on interorganizational cooperation and the moderating role of companies’ identification with their technology park. The conditions that promote the emergence of interorganizational cooperation are indicated in the literature as an important research gap, as well as the little evidence about how MCS design influences cooperation, especially in relationships based on innovation. MCSs in interorganizational partnerships have been shown to be relevant for the coordination and maintenance of the relationship, and this study reveals that MCSs promotes cooperative behaviors among the companies associated with the technology parks. The interorganizational identification of the companies with their park was moderately present, thus prompting the inclusion of social and relational aspects in interorganizational studies, which remain scarcely explored in the literature. The MCSs of the parks are focused on stimulating the companies’ cooperation, which is one purpose of this partnership. By not confirming the moderating effect of identification, it was verified that this construct drives cooperation in a way that is dissociated from the MCSs. A survey was conducted in organizations associated with Porto Digital and with the São José dos Campos Technology Park, and it had the participation of 187 managers. To analyze the data the partial least squares structural equation modeling technique was applied and the differences between the two parks were further analyzed. The MCSs design and interorganizational identification act as antecedents of the companies’ cooperation with their technology park. On the other hand, the direct and positive effect of the MCS design on cooperation is not moderated by how much these companies identify with the interorganizational relationship established. The paper contributes by identifying ways of fostering cooperation, one of the purposes of interorganizational agreements, as well as by providing evidence in a context that is scarcely addressed in the literature.

Innovative scientific and technological centers make it possible to achieve accelerated rates of development of the country’s economy, provide preconditions for accelerating growth of the country’s GDP, retain highly qualified personnel in the country and ensure the introduction of new technologies created on the territory of the ISTC. The article uses a generalization of a significant number of normative, empirical and theoretical sources. The closest in terms of the form of organization of technological and innovative infrastructure abroad are territorial clusters («Silicon Valley»), science cities («Tsukuba») and technology parks («Biopolis»). Analyzing the innovative territorial clusters and science cities, the authors identified their main structural components also used when creating an ISTC in Russia. Regulatory documents for the creation of the ISTC in Russia are at the stage of the preparation since 2017, the process of establishing ISTC in Russia began in 2019. As for 2021 – three ISTC are being created in Russia and eleven are at the stage of creation. Achieving budgetary and commercial efficiency is an urgent task when creating an ISTC in Russia. The purpose of the article is to determine the indicators of budgetary and commercial efficiency when creating an ISTC in Russia. The authors proposed the composition and qualitative characteristics of indicators of the commercial and budgetary efficiency of projects for the creation of the ISTC, the sequence of the accounting and analytical process and the range values. The composition of indicators of the commercial and budgetary efficiency of ISTC projects is reduced to the characteristics of economic turnover, expenditure obligations, absolute and relative economic benefits of financial investments. Among the main indicators of the efficiency of investments in the ISTC are highlighted: revenue, profit, cash flow and payback period of investments, net present value and internal rate of return. The measurement of budgetary efficiency is proposed as a result of comparing budgetary funds for the creation of the ISTC and tax funds received by the state excluding the amount of shortfalls of the Russian Federation.

The dimension of the slums is presumed as something that is deteriorating urban areas that is densely populated and contains dilapidated housing, often in multiple occupations, poverty, social disadvantage and other forms of physical and social deprivation. Urbanization is a global phenomenon experienced by economically advanced as well as developing countries. Rapid urbanization due to “pull factor” or the employment opportunity created in the city and “push factor” due to the lack of the same in rural areas and including environmental degradation, has attracted immigrants not only from the rural Tamil Nadu but also from other parts of the country. Growth of industrialization around the Chennai city, famine situation in the rural area, inadequate rain in the rural area, castism, rapidly and vast building construction activity in and around the city and information technology parks, has given surety for skilled, unskilled, semi-skilled jobs which are available to the deserving people. Most of the immigrated families who could not afford formal housing satisfy their need for housing by occupying available vacant land illegally and solving their housing problem and contribute to the creation of slums. In this study mainly aims to the income and expenditure activities of the Nochikuppam slum areas in Chennai city.

“Talent acquisition, transformation and management are ?critical anchors for the growth of the industry”—Nandan Neilkeni As a result of rapid pace of science and technology around the world and the monstrous intrusion of social media into people’s lives, the changes are no longer related to a generation, decade or a period, but everything can change in a moment. Therefore, sticking to the methods of the past years or decades is a disaster. Today, the number of specialists among the manpower is higher than before, and the ideologists are like the countries’ soldiers fighting on the economic and entrepreneurial front. Science and technology are provided by talents, and they have created interactions regarding socio-economic progress in developing countries.Tec parks are safe havens for returning talents in developing Countries. With certain infrastructures and policies, parks have an essential role in returning talents.This paper is an attempt to explore science and technology for that purpose content analysis technique is used.

Economic growth of developed countries is based on use of modern advances in science and innovative technologies. The creation of technoparks is one of the most common ways of implementation science and technology achievements in the economy, particularly in industry. The use of extensive innovation infrastructure in the form of ecotechnoparks in Ukraine, in particular in the Volyn region will contribute to the development of the economy and environmental protection. So that, the main purpose of the article is to substantiate the project of creation and operation of a network of eco-technology parks in the Volyn region. The information base of the research includes the scientific works published by L. Horbach, V. Nezhyborets, M. Yermoshenko, V. Derhachov, Ye. Donchenko, T. Chaiun and other. The article is devoted to the study the theoretical and practical aspects of creation and functioning of the ecotechnoparks in Volyn region. The authors give information about main types of activity of ecotechnoparks and propose the definition of concept « ecotechnopark». Particular attention is paid to the analysis of ways of zoning the territory of eco-industrial parks depending on the purpose of using, natural and historical and cultural value of areas. The priority directions of innovative activity are analyzed. These activities will ensure ecologically balanced socio-economic development of territorial communities with implementation of modern methods of management. Accordingly, it is noted that the main tasks of eco-technology parks in the Volyn region are to protect and restore the natural environment, promote socio-economic development of local communities, create attractive living conditions for the population etc. The authors offer to create more than 20 ecotechnoparks, which can be allocated based on natural resemblance and geopolitical factor. These parks can be created within the one territorial community or on the area which include two and more communities. According to the project the number of eco-industrial parks will be quite different in a section of district in the Volyn region. In particular, it is planned to create 10 ecotechnoparks in Kovel district, 7 parks – in Lutsk district, 3 – in Kamin-Kashirsky district and 2 – in Volodymyr-Volynsky district. The eco-industrial park «Western Bug» will be the largest of them, border the Republic of Poland and cover territory of two administrative districts of Volyn region. Furthermore, the ecotechnoparks «Svityaz» in Kovel district and «Pripyat-Stokhid» in Kamin-Kashirsky district will comprise significant areas with unique natural features. It is mentioned that future eco- industrial parks can be included in European eco-networks and will help to ensure the harmonious coexistence of population and nature. According to the project, management of ecotechnoparks will be entrusted to local communities. However, the general management is proposed to be carried out by the central administration, which will be located in the center of Volyn region – Lutsk City. Possible sources of funding for these ecotechnoparks include budgets of local territorial communities, local taxes and fees, utility payments etc. The authors came to the conclusion that the creation of eco-industrial parks in the Volyn region will contribute to the socio-economic development of the territory, improve the living conditions of the population and improve the ecological state of the environment. The practical recommendations can be used by Volyn Regional Council and territorial communities. Key words: technopark, eco-industrial park (ecotechnopark), innovative activity, innovation infrastructure.

This article aims to improve the theoretical and applied bases of activating the development of the light industry market in Ukraine by determining the factors that influence this process. Design / methodology / approach — In the article, authors use a set of scientific methods that ensured the conceptual integrity of the study, in particular: logic — to study the evolution of development of the light industry market; system аnd observation -to highlight the conceptual foundations of the light industry market; methods of dialectical reasoning, induction, deduction — to justify principles of development; statistical analysis — to study the peculiarities of the development of the light industry market in Ukraine (under the influence of the COVID pandemic — 19). The concept of sustainable development of the industry is adhered to in the work. Ukraine’s light industry is a multi-segment industry for the production of final consumer goods with rapid capital turnover. This industry has significant production potential in the process of meeting the domestic needs of consumers in non-food products. Nevertheless, the demand of the domestic market is predominantly met by imports. Only certain segments of light industry (for example, textile, etc.) have a promising growth in terms of entering foreign markets, but with a high share of tolling operations in Ukrainian exports. The light industry market needs to overcome the high dependence of imported raw materials; increase price competitiveness of domestic goods, reduction of illegal imports and shadow production of goods in the domestic market of light industry. The analysis of the influence of factors on the development of the light industry market revealed the following main trends in the industry: reduction of aggregate demand and production of goods (through consumers’ appeals to meet basic needs during the pandemic); consolidation of participants in the domestic market of light industry and exit from the market of weak counterparties; high dependence on world prices for raw materials, which has a low level of quality; growth of consignments of groupage cargoes; emergence of logistical and transport problems; deepening outsourcing in value chains; development of contactless delivery of goods to home; intensification of intra-industry competition and a significant share of the shadow sector; low productivity in the industry and shortage of qualified personnel. The industry needs to gain a highly competitive status through the production of high quality goods and increase supplies of products for export with a high share of value added, reduce the flow of used clothing, government support for the development of the sector. Prospects for the development of the sector are supported by the high adaptability of Ukrainian enterprises to changing market conditions, especially in the context of the COVID-19 pandemic. The development potential of the light industry market should be realized in terms of ensuring the competitiveness of Ukrainian products: by improving the quality of raw materials imports, improving the production structure, taking into account the innovative potential of the industry and the prospects for expanding the capacity of the light industry market, through the formation of industrial technology parks, clusters, vertically integrated structures with the involvement of representatives small and medium-sized businesses, as the most adaptable to the light industry market, as well as improving logistics chains for creating added value, a network of wholesale and branded trade, strengthening the marketing and logistics departments of light industry enterprises.
