Analysis of the concept of industrial technology platform development in Russia and in the EU

Summary/Abstract: This article aims to examine the concept of development of sectoral technology platforms as a mechanism of innovative development, which allows mobilization of the whole range of available resources into a coordinated system focused on the achievement of the stated priorities of the national sci-tech and innovation policy. As an infrastructural object, a technology platform is an element of the national innovation infrastructure, oriented at a long-term prospective development within the frames of the applicable technological foresight methodology. This provides sufficient flexibility of the organizational structure for prompt response to changes in a dynamic competitive external environment. We discuss Russian and foreign experience of applying the technology platform concept for resolving the issue of forming an innovative environment that supports high-tech development of the national economy. Also, a comparative analysis of created technology platforms on the sectoral principle, using the method of paired comparisons, is provided. Particular attention is paid to the determination of the place of technology platforms in the innovation policy of the states, technology platform project imple-mentation stages, life cycles, organizational charts, compilation of a list of top priority technologies and public-private partnerships.
