Transformation of the National Innovation System for Creating Intellectual Property Assets

The presented study focuses on the issue of enhancing the innovative, economic, and investment competitiveness of the Russian Federation in light of the global experiences of the leading countries, particularly the USA. Aim. Legislative procedures and the national policy in the field of intellectual property need to be improved through budgetary subsidies and consolidation of rights on research and development findings. Tasks. This study aims to analyze the provisions of the regulatory framework for consolidating rights on intellectual property assets (IPA) in the USA and to examine conceptual changes in approaches as well as the effect of intellectual property creation on political and economic dominance, which grows stronger along with globalization. Methods. The study uses systems and statistical analysis as well as historical and institutional approaches. Results. The authors show that the transfer of exclusive rights on IP subsidized by the government has been practiced not only in the USA but also in Great Britain and Japan. However, the results have been negative, forcing the government to change the status of the developer university with regard to IP rights. There is also a trend of partially transferring rights on the IP funded by the government to the developer university or the authors. It is found that at the current stage, the leading countries in IP creation continue to assign rights on the products of innovative and intellectual activities, intended for military, special, and dual purposes, to the government. Conclusion. The conducted study substantiates the necessity of transformation and development of the national innovation system, this being not the ultimate but a vital prerequisite for the financial and social efficiency of innovative activities. The main goal is the efficient distribution of advanced technologies, particularly products of government research and development, and their fast commercialization. All this provides significant benefits and a sound foundation for high-tech research in the near future. This issue can only be solved by developing a clear understanding of the national economic and political objectives, strategic and operational motives of behavior of competitors, and a set of measures for adequate, rational (adequate to the challenge) management of the process under examination, which are yet to be developed (and can be partially copied).
