Technology entrepreneurship in innovation ecosystems: features of functioning and forms of support
Abstract
Developing a business based on innovative ideas, technology entrepreneurship plays a leading role in achieving the goals of sustainable development of the national economy. At the initial stage of development, technological startups need resource support to transform into an innovative company. Such support can be provided by innovation ecosystems and technology entrepreneurship ecosystems. Government support for the activities of small innovative enterprises is an important factor in the development of technology entrepreneurship. The purpose of the study is to develop an organizational and functional model of technology entrepreneurship. The level of development of technology entrepreneurship at the federal level and at the level of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation was assessed using indicators of the share of small enterprises in the total number of organizations, the share of innovative products of small enterprises in the total volume of manufactured products, expenditures on innovative activities, and internal costs of research and development. The author used data from the Federal State Statistics Service. An organizational and functional model of technology entrepreneurship is proposed, the main elements of which are the business community, investors, scientific and educational organizations, innovative enterprises, innovative and technological infrastructure, support institutions. It is shown how a startup, scaling a business model, can turn into an innovation business, what forms of support can ensure this, how intercompany interaction is organized within the innovation process. It is recommended to develop forms of cooperation between the business community and universities, stimulate innovative enterprises in the regions, support technological startups, and improve forms of government support for technology entrepreneurship. For the growth and development of startups in the innovation ecosystem, mechanisms for productive interaction of all its elements and effective forms of support for technology entrepreneurship are needed.
Trends in the development of the practice of using accumulative mechanisms of pension provision in OECD countries
Abstract
The relevance of the study of issues related to the development of the practice of using pension provision accumulative mechanisms is out of question due to the challenges faced by pension systems of countries around the world. The research methodology is based on economic and mathematical tools for processing data characterizing the indicators of using accumulative mechanisms of pension provision in OECD (Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development) countries. The paper defines groups of OECD countries depending on the supplier of pension products, as well as the type of pension plan. Based on the analysis of data on the use of pension plans depending on the above factors, the author identified the countries-leaders in each of the identified groups. Based on the results of the study, a list of key trends in the development of the practice of using accumulative mechanisms of pension provision in OECD countries was formulated. The largest group of countries included those states where contracts for pension products are concluded mainly with non-state pension funds. Among the results obtained, it is necessary to highlight the lack of parity in the application of all types of pension plans supplied by non-state pension funds, since the dominance of any one of the types is recorded in each state. The results of the study will have practical significance when implementing substantiations of state decisions on issues of regulating the practice of using accumulative pension mechanisms as an integral component of the pension system of the Russian Federation. This is especially important in the context of achieving the national goals of the development of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030, implementing the Strategy for the Development of the Pension System of the Russian Federation for the period up to 2030 and the Strategy for the Development of the Financial Market of the Russian Federation until 2030.
Development of the market of digital financial assets in the context of ensuring financial sovereignty of Russia
Abstract
Currently, in the context of limited external funding, the issues of forming the financial sovereignty of the country are becoming the subject of scientific discourse among Russian economists. The introduction of digital financial assets (DFA) into business practice and their legislative recognition largely ensures the expansion of investment opportunities for economic entities, which will contribute to the end of the stagnant macroeconomic shock of the period of 2021–2024. The work covers solving such scientific problems as clarifying the essential nature of DFA and developing their classification; assessing the process of functioning of the investment market based on the use of digital financial instruments; identifying key limitations in the functioning of the basic institutions regulating the DFA circulation. The authors proposed a clarified formulation of the economic category of digital financial assets, taking into account the peculiarities of its essential nature. An analysis of the functioning of the domestic DFA market is carried out. Among the factors hindering the development of the DFA market, its fragmentation, low liquidity, and weak institutional regulation of the issue and circulation of DFA are highlighted. The authors emphasize the positive effect of the development of the digital infrastructure of the market, in particular, the increase in the number of investment platforms licensed by the Bank of Russia, the reduction of costs of access to them, the development of a market-making system in the secondary market of digital financial assets. The authors believe that the leveling of the contradictions of the investment market should occur due to the improvement of the institutional environment in the field of strengthening control over transactions with digital financial assets, as well as ensuring their mandatory registration, which is absent at the present stage. The development of the domestic market of digital financial assets has significant potential due to, firstly, the desire of economic entities to replace traditional financial instruments with digital ones, which allow reducing significantly transaction and transformation costs; secondly, the expansion of investment opportunities for economic actors through the use of digital platforms and other elements of the digital ecosystem for the purpose of business development; thirdly, the transformation of the traditional business model, which provides for the transition from vertical interaction of entities to a network form of coordination of economic agents using decentralized financial instruments in their activities.
