“…The Russian specificity of low population density and economic activity provokes a kind of delineation (autarchy) of the innovative activity. Population density is not the only factor functioning in isolation, but it intensifies and stimulates the formation and development of a favorable institutional environment for innovation, acts as a catalyst for the concentration of economic activities and leads to agglomeration effects (Firsova, Makarova, & Tugusheva, 2020).…”

Regional development prospects depend on a set of factors, among which the most essential are the population density, distance between actors, and the level of development. Those aspects are revealed, on one hand, while analyzing the type of regional development (intensive or extensive), and on the other hand, from the standpoint of the center-peripheral model. An assessment of the sectoral structure of employed people in the economy of the region and the population density are also used to identify the development type. The combination of these approaches makes it possible to identify the regional capacity for innovations diffusion and knowledge spillover. The aim of the research is to assess regional differences in the economy sectoral structure for identifying the innovative and extensive types of Russian regions. There are other methods used in the research as well: cartographic analysis, structural-sectoral analysis, and typology. The types of regions characterized by disproportions of intensive and extensive development have been identified. Measures are proposed to realize the regional economic potential. The issues of the territorial transformation of the settlement system and economic space are discussed. Further research is associated with an extended analysis of intensive development factors and cross-county comparison of the factors of innovations diffusion intensity and knowledge spillover.

“…Both of these approaches point to the necessity to supplement money interventions with other actions to make these interventions successful. Several studies with proposed models for assessing the development of regional innovation systems and economic growth [20][21][22] could be used for designing VC programmes. However, during the current SF period (2014-2020), complementary instruments for VC interventions have not been implemented or implemented vaguely.…”

This paper presents the results of a study on the impact of EU structural funds on the development of a self-sustainable venture capital (VC) market in Latvia from the perspective of VC fund managers. The study had two objectives. The first was to assess the contribution of European Union (EU) structural funds (SF) programmes toward the development of a self-sustainable VC industry in Latvia. The second was to identify ways by which the structural fund support could be better exploited for the development of the VC industry in Latvia. During three SF planning periods, the stated primary goal of the programmes to support high-growth SMEs was attained—to date, 294 VC investments have been made by publicly supported hybrid VC funds. During the 2004–2006 planning period, the first generation of professional VC fund managers in Latvia emerged in response to the opportunity to manage publicly supported hybrid VC funds. During the subsequent programmes, a high continuation rate by the established managers was observed. Nevertheless, Latvian VC fund managers are not yet capable of raising private funds and still encounter difficulties in attracting the necessary level of private capital for the publicly supported hybrid VC funds. The novelty of the study is the finding that improvements in the SF programme designs did not significantly decrease the impact of factors identified as limiting the success of the operations of VC managers. This suggests and confirms conclusions of other studies that argue that public policies aimed at creating healthy and supporting conditions for VC activity are necessary in addition to public financial support for VC funds. Regarding the next planning period, the suggestion regarding programme design is to continue with already started improvements: increasing the volume of funds, widening the geographic area eligible for investments, reducing restrictions on the types of financial instruments that may be used, lowering the administrative burden for VC fund managers and avoiding micromanagement of VC funds by governmental agency. The observation that the influence of investments in VC funds on the governmental agency’s responsible for VC investments financial statements may be partly responsible for the tendency to micromanage VC funds could be useful not only in Latvia but also in other countries.

“…Эффективность системы высшего образования недостаточно рассматривать только через призму ее внутренней деятельности (Lehmann et al, 2017;Rodionov and Velichenkova, 2020). В силу воздействия экзогенных факторов на работу вуза и его ответного активного влияния на региональную эконо-мику (в понимании современной концепции Университета 3.0) эффективность системы высшего образования может быть определена вкладом университета в экономическое развитие территории.…”

“…В современных трендах постиндустриализации и роста знаниеемкой экономики в дополнение к основным функциям университета -образовательной и научной -добавилась функция служения сообществу (service to the community), в связи с чем модели его взаимодействия с регионом значительно меняются (Ашутова и Желнина, 2019;Коган и др., 2019;Мингалева, 2019;Певная и Шуклина, 2018;Gabdulchakov, 2016;Thiel, 2017).

Introduction: the article analyzes the higher education efficiency and discusses problems and imbalances in its development. Objectives: to determine the relevance of the areas of training offered by the higher education institutions to the economy structure and the needs for specialists in the labor market, to assess the balance of regional higher education systems. Methods: methods of comparative, statistical, graphical and cartographic analysis of the data available from Unified Interdepartmental Information and Statistical System (EMISS), Federal State Statistic Service, Monitoring of higher education organizations and Monitoring of graduates employment of the Ministry of Science and Higher Education of the Russian Federation for the period of 2016−2018. Results: the structure of specialists graduation in regional higher education systems, due to the influence of many factors, is often determined not by the needs of regional economies, but by the demand of the population in the field of education as well as the preferences and ideas of the applicants. This leads to an imbalance on the labour markets and inefficiency in spending public and private funds on higher education. Conclusions: the development of coordinated management decisions in the personnel training system aimed at its congruent balanced development and achieving a balance of economic interests of all actors should be focused on creating effective foresight tools for forecasting the promising directions for the education system development and taking into account the needs and competitive advantages of the region.
