THE SYSTEM OF ASSESSING ‘GROWTH AREAS’ IN HIGHLY TECHNOLOGICAL SECTOR OF ECONOMY

Abstract

The article provides research findings of the highly technological sector of economy from the point of view of assessing ‘growth areas’ of the sector. The idea of ‘growth areas’ was described in view of sectoral approach. Different categories of ‘growth areas’ are shown: highly technological, medium-highly technological, medium-low technological and low technological. The system of indicators meant for analyzing ‘growth areas’ is demonstrated both in generalized form and in the section by blocks, such as high technologies production, finance results of science intensive enterprises, business activity of ‘growth areas’, science intensive services in the highly technological sector, customer structure and labour resources and relative indicators of the highly technological sector. Mutual impact of the mentioned-above indicators is identified.
