On the Influence of the Conceptual Apparatus on Setting the Tasks of Information Support of Innovation Activities

Abstract

Various interpretations of the innovative economy, innovation activity, and innovation concepts are given. A consequence of the undefined terminology is the diversity of the semantic load of the term innovation infrastructure. The resulting variety of approaches to solving the problems of information support of innovations is illustrated based on the example of analysis of regulatory and program documents of eight regions of the Siberian Federal District. As an alternative to creating a difficult-to-implement single federal point of reference in the information space, it is proposed to build a network of regional systems that provide navigation and access to appropriate resources for the information provision of innovation activities. In connection with external information resources, a model of the life cycle of innovations is presented, covering all stages from the generation of ideas to the withdrawal of an innovative product from the market.
