TECHNOLOGICAL PLATFORMS - ECONOMIC NATURE AND MECHANISM OF INNOVATIVE SPATIAL DEVELOPMENT
In this work, the approaches to determining the economic nature of technological platforms (TP) and the organizational and economic mechanism of their functioning existing in the scientific literature and regulatory acts are investigated. A comparative description of the current state, features and development efficiency of technological platforms of the European Union (EU), Russian Federation (RF) and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU) in the conditions of spatial and economic transformation of market relations is given. Technological platforms, considered as a special kind of business model, are distinguished by a combination of innovative and organizational solutions and management mechanisms, represented by various forms of network interaction and partnership, strategic alliances and other development institutions. The lack of unity of scientific views and approaches testifies to the complex nature of this economic and technological category and requires complex interdisciplinary research. Considering technology platforms as a complex socio-economic system, the authors performed a comparative analysis of the individual components of this system and assessed the economic and commercial effectiveness of the operation of technology platforms in the EU, Russia and the EAEU in the production of high-tech, innovative and competitive products.
