Abstract

The article presents the systems of evaluating the regions’ economic activity, which
comprise various components. The regions’ economic activity evaluation is done mostly
through different rankings, which can generally be classified into: global and national. The
analysis of the rankings’ dynamics in 2012-2016 has shown that the Russian innovation
activity is rising on the international level. Such a tendency is considered to be positive in
the modern economic conditions, however the innovation activity needs to be accelerated.
According to the national level rankings, there are 3 regions in the Russian Federation,
which managed to apply their innovation potential better than other Russian Federation
regions. Thus, various level rankings help defining the strengths and weaknesses of a
region’s innovation development, that in future can become the basis for leading
coordinated innovation policy.

Keywords:

innovations, innovation activity, rating analysis, innovation activity evaluation methods.
