Principles of Building an Innovation System for the Agro­Industrial Complex of Russia: Creating the Basis for the Commercialization of Scientific and Technical Projects by V. M. Korotchenya

“…Within these principles, the following concepts became the key ones: an innovation system, a triple helix model of innovation, an innovation process (including the transfer of technologies from the science sector to the business sector and the accompanying problem of the innovation death valley), a comprehensive classification of technology groups and radical innovation types from the point of view of the industry's technological paradigm, and innovation implementation.Research purpose To develop the principles of organizing (building) an innovation system for the agro-industrial complex of Russia and to reveal through them the inner content of the "innovation system" concept.Materials and methods A normative approach to economic analysis and a systematic method were applied.Results and discussion A successful innovation system of the agro-industrial complex is shown to depend on the effective interaction of agricultural science, agribusiness and the state: the three institutional participants in the innovation development and implementation act based on a pre-agreed mutual understanding of the innovation process concept, including the need to overcome the innovation death valley. At the same time, an innovative project proposal can be initiated by any sector, and the role of the state is recognized as critical and mission-oriented. …”
