Systematization of the experience of legal regulation of innovation infrastructure in the CIS countries in the context of the protection and commercialization of RIA

Abstract

The innovation infrastructure as an object of legal regulation has not been sufficiently studied. The article summarizes the practice of improving legislation in the field of innovation in the countries of the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS), which are leaders in innovative development — the Republic of Kazakhstan, the Republic of Belarus and the Republic of Armenia, which were determined on the basis of the human development index and the global innovation index. The regulatory framework of these CIS countries is considered from the position of state regulation of innovation and technological policy, the creation of technoparks, business incubators, venture organizations, technology transfer centers. The study revealed that the national innovation systems of the CIS countries have significant features. In the conclusions, it is noted that the legislative framework for the protection of the results of innovation activity is insufficiently systematized, fragmentary, and heterogeneously formed. On this aspect, broader interstate cooperation within the CIS is needed.
