Index analysis of differentiation of the Russian Federation regions on the basic indicators of innovation activity

The most important strategic direction of the development of the Russian economy is to increase the innovation activity of enterprises and organizations. Despite the positive trends in the sphere of increasing the innovation activity of enterprises and organizations in the country, the creation and introduction of advanced technological innovations in production, low innovation activity of organizations remains in most regions. Problems of innovative development of the regions, as well as the methodology of statistical research of innovation activities are considered in the works of domestic scientists (M.Arkhipova, A.Varshavsky, L.Gokhberg, T.Dubrova, S.Ilyenkova, V.Kuznetsov, N.Sadovnikova and others), but the comparative analysis of innovation activity in the regions based on the  index method was not carried out. The purpose of this article is to develop a methodology of applying the index method for a comparative analysis of the innovation development in the regions of the country. The methodology represents an algorithm for comparative analysis of key indicators that characterize innovation activity with a similar average Russian indicator: the proportion of organizations that carry out technological innovation in the total number of organizations surveyed; shares of the shipped innovative goods, works, services in the total volume of the shipped products; share of costs for technological innovation in the total volume of the shipped products. The uneven socio-economic development of the constituent entities of the Russian Federation causes the preservation of regional differentiation in terms of the level of innovation activity. In the process of research, based on the index method, the constituent entities of the Russian Federation were grouped according to the main indicators of innovative development; the leading regions and lagging regions were identified according to the main characteristics of innovation activity. According to the data for 2015, it was revealed that there is a very low innovation activity of organizations in 33 regions of the country (more than twice as below the similar level countrywide). Low innovation activity (10–50% less than the average Russian indicator) is observed in 24 regions of the Russian Federation. Increased innovation activity of organizations, exceeding the average Russian level by 10% or more, is noted in 17 regions of the country.
