Advanced Technologies in Strategizing

Since the second half of the XX century, the trend of globalization has increasingly led to the use of high-tech developments and innovations that make it possible to achieve strategic goals set at the national, regional, industrial or corporate level. All this requires carefully developed strategies that make allowance for global challenges which are based on advanced technologies that able to use them successfully as a competitive advantage at every stage of strategizing.

Aim. The presented study aims to determine the role of advanced technologies in achieving strategic goals of great social significance.

Tasks. The authors determine the correlation between the key elements of strategy, the process of finding and using advanced technologies in determining the development vector and achieving certain strategic goals; emphasize the importance of innovative technologies in development strategies; show that technology transfer is an efficient strategic tool for implementing advanced technologies to improve all aspects of the population’s quality of life (material, intellectual, emotional).

Methods. This study is based on the general theory of strategy and strategizing methodology developed by the Center for Strategic Research of the Institute of Mathematical Research of Complex Systems and the Economic and Financial Strategy Department at Moscow School of Economics at Lomonosov Moscow State University. The strategic principles of developing practical strategic documents are considered. The study uses the methods of analysis and synthesis, analogy, comparison, generalization, induction and deduction.

Results. The authors develop conceptual frameworks for finding, evaluating and implementing advanced technologies in strategizing. The study describes the role of advanced technologies in improving all aspects of the quality of life: material, intellectual and emotional.

Conclusions. Advanced technologies play a crucial role in strategizing. Their application guarantees the achievement of the strategic goal of each strategy aimed at improving all aspects of the population’s quality of life (material, intellectual, emotional). At the same time, the strategic system for monitoring, finding and transferring technologies is designed to detect and use innovative developments in a timely manner to ensure effective achievement of this goal.
