At the present stage, the innovative activity of Russian organizations and enterprises is still low. Moreover, in foreign practice, much attention is paid to innovation. Foreign enterprises allocate large sums to the innovation sphere. In this regard, Russian companies are still significantly behind. According to Rosstat, the share of innovatively active business entities in Russia does not exceed 8.5%. This is a critically low rate. In the European Union, this indicator reaches 53%. Another serious problem is the low intensity of innovation costs in the high-tech sector. In our country, the indicator of the intensity of such costs is only 1.9% (for example, in Germany - 4.7%). This indicates the high relevance of the study of thе problem of innovative development оf the economic sector of the Russian Federation.
