The identified By substantiating the possibility to create and problems, risks and limitations that the development of clusters successfully develop a cluster, the management team of the faces while implementing the programs aimed to build PSEDA monotown of Berezovskiy proceed from the following facts: in monotowns, have been classified by their sources. These at present 76% of the town’s economy is in coal mining and sources are determined by the characteristics and unique processing; there is a Federal highway going to the city of features of monotowns themselves. They depend on the individual characteristics of a PSEDA, in particular, the Irkutsk near the town, as well as a regional highway to requirements for residents and their investment projects. The Anzhero-Sudzhensk and Tomsk; the monotown of sources are also determined by the risks and difficulties that Berezovskiy has a branch railway line that has an access to exist in the practice of cluster formation and functioning of the Trans-Siberian railway via the town of Taiga (this is of clusters. great strategic importance for the development of the town, since it already resolves the issue of logistics).

  • Some Diversification Factors of Old Industrial Regions\' Economy and Transition to the Innovative Development
    E3S Web of Conferences 21, 04022 (2017) DOI: 10.1051/e3sconf/20172104022 The Second International Innovative Mining Symposium Some Diversification Factors of Old Industrial Regions’ Economy and Transition to the Innovative Development Olga Tabashnikova1 1 Plekhanov Russian University of Economics, Kemerovo Institute (branch), 650992 Kemerovo, Kuznetskiy Av. 39, Russia Abstract. The article presents the grounds for the necessity to diversify the mono-economy of old industrial regions and its transition to the innovative development based on the interaction of small and large businesses with the support of municipal, regional and governmental authorities. The examples of the world practice in state regulation of depressed territories of old industrial type and the participation of multinational corporations in their modernization are given. The role of business groups in the diversification of the Kemerovo region economy is described, as well as the importance of supporting this process by the governmental authorities. 1 Introduction The need to diversify the mono-profile (mono-product, mono-industrial) economy of old industrial regions, including the Kemerovo Region, is due to the objective requirement of their sustainable development and increase of social and economic parameters of the terri- torial management system. One of the important factors of this process is the effective in- teraction of small and large business. However, in modern economy, when the existing economic, production, and other links and mechanisms lose their importance and new ones are just being established, to create such interaction and ensure its development the pur- poseful efforts of the authorities on federal, regional and municipal levels are necessary. 2 Materials and Methods It should be noted that there is no "exact" (single, universal) definition of the term "old in- dustrial region", despite the fact that many scientists have paid attention to this phenome- non during the past twenty five years in Russia [1-5].

The authors suggest defining clusters in relation to types of business associations operating in priority development areas within mono-profile towns. The basic principles of the methodical approach were formulated to the formation of clusters in monotowns and diversification of the economy, located on the territories of priority socioeconomic development, based on international and Russian researches made to analyze the experience in the formation and functioning of clusters, their problems and risks. Most significant factors are distinguished for problem solving in mono towns to ensure the sustainable development of clusters. The cluster approach was analyzed with regard to its using in practice. The monotown of Yurga in Kemerovo Oblast (Kuzbass) is described as an example of cluster studies for a discussion of practical considerations in implementing the monotown program designed for priority development areas.

The article deals with the theoretical and practical issues of innovation activity as a factor of economic development and its sustainability. It reveals that economic instability can affect the investment climate, as well as cause significant slowdown of the innovation process. It points out the differences in adaptation processes in regions, which are reflected in the pace and direction of innovation implementation. An assessment of the innovation potential of a resource-type region was carried out based on indicative method and a set of criteria which were divided into five groups. The groups are formed according to scientific, technical, personnel, financial and resulting components. The analysis revealed that the resulting component is in a pre-crisis state, which is determined by the small number of active enterprises introducing innovation technologies and a small share of innovative products. It was noted that the technical and personnel components are in a normal state, and the financial component is in the state of crisis. It was concluded that there exists a sufficiently high innovation potential in the basic sectors of the industrial region. The debatable results of any assessments of the innovation potential and its impact on the sustainability of socio-economic development are underlined.

    Master Program in Economic Growth, Innovation and Spatial Dynamics Russian Monotowns Delgir Maksimova [email protected] Abstract: Monofunctional towns of Russia represent the extreme case of specialized settlements where the socio-economic development mostly or fully depends on the performance of one or a few town-forming enterprises. This phenomenon obtained attention after the Soviet Union collapse, which has resulted in worsening of the socio-economic situation in monotowns. However, since the 2000s the differentiation in the development among monofunctional towns was observed. What can condition such differentiation? In this study an attempt to provide a new perspective, through which monotowns can be studied. The analysis is done in the step- wise manner and based on the developed data matrix and taxonomy of monotowns.

Vavilov, National Research Tomsk Polytechnic University, Tomsk, Russia, [email protected] Abstract The result of company town concept analysis and systemising shows the absence of distinguishing criteria in international theory. In Russian theory and practice otherwise it is defined three approaehes to the criteria definition. Taken into consideration these practices and the considerable difference between company towns the authors offer the following distinguishmg factors of company town: township-forming enterprise, industry structure, human resource allocation, financial resource allocation, corporate social responsibility, and town location relative as additional external element common to most company towns. The analysis of the faetors on the basis of Yurga socio-economic wellbeing data concludes that the company town has still strong influence from township-forming enterprise in spite of economy diversification results, including core industry reduction in production and employment rates. The main element of the influence is a thermal power station on the balance of the township-forming enterprise that serves the needs of citizens, so we eonsider it as the part of corporate soeial responsibility concept.
