Ratings of innovative developments as indicators of developmental problems in the region

Summary/Abstract: This research aims at identifying economic problems within regional policy of innovation. In this case, rating procedure is employed as a methodological tool to indicate strategic errors, generated by administrative decisions in the field of innovation. The researchers come up with a hypothesis that ratings can serve as indicators of regional innovative development pointing out problematic areas, yet ratings are not fully taken into account while adjusting regional innovation strategy. The authors apply the Tyumen region statistical data to test the presented approach. For example, rating markers are used as innovative development indicators (a technique offered by National Research University “Higher School of Economics” and A.B. Gusev’s method). The results show that, despite the positive dynamics of the Tyumen region general rating, certain innovative development problems still remain.
