Role of international factor in innovation ecosystem formation

Abstract. New stage of the national innovation system concept is developed using evolutional approach to the phenomena and processes analysis, occurred in economy. In this context, formed an idea of innovative ecosystem has been formulated.

The article deals with the analysis of potential of open innovation system based at the international transfer of technology and innovative communications using an ecosystem approach. Generally, high technological business can not exist out of ecosystem which is formed around it by all participants of innovative process. Increasing integrity of different technologies caused multidisciplinary technologies and knowledge growth, and also positively effects of both processes: research and innovation internationalization. International aspect is essential to examine with innovative hubs cooperation, which is the innovative system, formed in the ecosystem. Hub, additionally to the development of its own innovative projects and infrastructure, gives informational and consulting, scientific and technological, infrastructural and producing services to solve technologies transfer tasks. Innovation hubs create an effective field of innovative communications (ІnCo), the main task of which is to stimulate an open dialogue of the innovative activity stakeholders and their cooperation with the help of specialized approaches.

State role in innovative ecosystems development and the high technologies transfer is defined by the following factors: necessity to stimulate the national economy development as the precondition of stable demand for innovations; possibility to accumulate and orient at innovative development sufficient material resources; necessity of the advanced education development; necessity to form integral innovative policy, founded at the principles of innovative activity planning and prognostication; uniting and coordinating of the innovative, scientific and technical activity in the national scale.

The authors proposed to define the main peculiarity of the innovative ecosystem in its openness (economic analogue is internationalization) and getting in the necessary resources from outside through the international technology transfer.
