Abstract

over national level tendencies to global use of national technological potential, to global cooperation in sphere of innovations are shown. Alongside with it the special urgency is got with a regional level of innovational systems. It is connected because а) at a national level the regional environment in determines competitiveness of business as innovations on the greater degree grow out environments many. б) the postindustrial economy has high dynamism and an individualization both in sphere of manufacture, and in sphere of consumption; в) in connection with глобализацией regions are involved in the international exchange without national borders. The social economic policy of the Republic of Belarus is based on the following priority directions: increase of the level and quality of living of the population and maintenance of steady socio economic development of the state. Currently the Republic Belarus is developing its industrial and scientific potential, individual elements of the innovations infrastructure (science-technology parks, business incubators, centers for transfer of technologies etc.) are being actively developed, however there exists a lack of communication between these elements as well as between these elements and other sectors of the economy. As a result, despite of positive experience of a number of initiatives, break of innovative development of the economy has not taken place. In connection with the beforesaid in the course of development of the innovation system of the Republic of Belarus a significant role is played by the regional innovations policy, creation of the regional innovation system, development of the effective mechanism promoting social-economic development of the region, first of all through effective constant interaction of science and manufacturing and attracting the necessary resources at all stages of the innovation of activity. The research is developed to regional innovation system creation. Aim of the research – to provide recommendations on facilitation of conditions for development and functioning of the regional innovation system. The regional innovation system can be defined as a set of interrelated subsystems facilitating access to various resources and services to the participants of the innovation activity. The regional innovation system should be regarded as a process of interaction and feedback between all subsystems ensuring realization of all the processes leading to creation of a product such as innovation. The above approach enables to develop the areas the promotion and stimulation whereof will promote innovation activity and lead to the achievement of the set objectives. The development and promoting of the innovation system requires performance of requirements of principles: compatibility – the regional system should be a consistent part of the national innovation system as well as the national social-economic system and global economic relations: integrity of the system – unity of the system and coordinated performance of functions by each element of the system; development – ensuring development of the subsystems (management); standardization – the quality of the object being development shall be ensured adhering to the modern standards and first of all meet the requirements of the quality management system.
