For the purpose of forming national innovation system in Georgia

Abstract

Modernistic development of the Economy of Georgia is unimaginable without realization of the approach based on knowledge and technologies. To this end, it is necessary to create an effective national innovation system, which will be fitted to national peculiarities. Unfortunately, the national innovation system is still in germinal position in Georgia, there is not established relevant model of development and therefore it is characterized with low efficiency. In order to form innovative economy, fundamental measures are creation of adequate legislative acts and infrastructure for innovative and technological activities. Nowadays, innovative projects financed by the state and private sectors have no major character, infrastructure elements are represented by several objects, most of which are located in Tbilisi. For the innovative development of the country, the following measures should be conducted by the state: to work out a long-term strategy of innovative development; to develop innovative infrastructure, maximum involvement of regions in innovative processes; to strengthen the scientific-research component of the education system; to stimulate the introduction of modern technologies in all fields of economy, in small and medium entrepreneurship, industrial and agricultural sectors; Close coordination between science, business and state.
