О научно-технической политике Союзного государства

Abstract

This article examines aspects of the formation and implementation of the scientific and technological policy of the Union State of Russia and Belarus. The purpose of the study is to define a strategy for the scientific and technological development of the Union State in a substantive, phased manner and by sector, with a common goal of expanding cooperation and integration of efforts to achieve the technological sovereignty of the Union state based on a sound scientific and technological development strategy. The research methodology utilizes modern approaches to managing scientific and technological development based on the theory of technological paradigms. The research information base consists of regulatory acts for the development of the Union State, and scientific and technological projects and programs with sectoral localization. The result of the work carried out using the designated methodology is a description of the methods for implementing the strategy for scientific and technological development of the Union State, which is currently adopted, and allows for detailed decisions on individual advanced or significant sectors of the economies of Russia and Belarus. Taken together, these proposals will not only ensure progress in technological sovereignty but also lay the foundation for a new quality of economic growth, based on new fundamental scientific results, emerging technologies, and successful innovations, assuming the integration of these components. This is a key link in addressing the development of the Union State – the comprehensive integration and cooperation of efforts in science, technology, and production. Implementing this strategy requires activating three elements: venture financing for innovation, subsidies for R&D within scientific and technical programs, and low-interest loans from banks and development institutions.
