The author’s approaches to the definition of the concepts of «social development» and «demographic development» are considered. The authors studied various points of view regarding a set of indicators for assessing the level of sociodemographic development of the region. The list of basic and special indicators of the sociodemographic development of the region has been clarified. Particular attention is paid to factors that have a significant impact on the sociodemographic development of the regions. The construction of state policy in the field of socio-demographic development of regions should take into account the above factors. This will help to establish the stability of the sociodemographic situation of the region.

The paper considers issues of evaluating the effectiveness of innovation in production. The basis of the research is a systematic approach and a factor analysis of innovation activity of industrial enterprises. When assessing the effectiveness of innovative developments, it seems important to consider not only the economic component, but also the social effect, the impact of innovation on the environment, and the formation of an innovative climate in Russia. It is necessary to introduce a system of indicators linking the current level of production with the main tasks of innovative technological development and technical improvement of production.

Russian oil and gas industry has undergone a number of changes over the past 20 years. The volumes of oil and gas production changed, the production site moved to the eastern part of Russia, innovative solutions were introduced in the field of oil and gas production, as well as their subsequent processing, the number of players in the market and the price of oil and gas changed. All this set the trends in the development of oil and gas industry in Russia in a new direction for it. This article discusses the current state of oil and gas industry in Russia and identifies the main trends in its development.

The article explores approaches to determining the industrial risk of domestic and foreign authors. Definitions of risk are classified based on their attitude to risk: active or passive. The definitions of industrial risk are analyzed and its distinctive features are revealed. Industrial risk definitions have been classified.

The main areas of support for national industrial complexes are considered, the need for the formation of effective mechanisms to support innovative activities, the study of mechanisms to stimulate innovative activity of enterprises is substantiated. The main factors of influence on the development of priority sectors of the Russian economy are considered. Changes in the innovation activity of industry are investigated. The analysis revealed the main areas of development of innovation in industry, at the same time it was revealed that the number of industries where technological innovations are implemented is increasing every year. An indicator of innovative activity is the innovative activity of an enterprise. Among the barriers that arise with increasing innovative activity of enterprises, the main ones are small amounts of financing and high risks of implementing innovation projects. A high level of risk is explained by a number of factors: changes in exchange rates, unstable demand for industrial products, legal and tax legislative bases. Recommendations are formulated to stimulate the innovation activity of industrial enterprises.

In the article, the authors study innovative clusters of the Samara region, indicators of innovative development of the region. It is determined that the innovative activity of the industrial complex began its implementation on an unprepared basis. In this paper, a statistical analysis of indicators of innovation activity of the industrial complex of the region is carried out. The authors concluded that for effective innovative development of the industrial complex of the region, it is necessary to modernize the technological base. A model of innovative development of the region's industry based on innovative clusters is proposed.

The development of innovation is a critical strategic task for science and government. A system of support for innovation has been created in the regions. However, the processes of creating new knowledge, technologies, and innovative products are not yet productive enough. Digitalization provides new opportunities for collecting information and debugging innovative processes. With this in mind, the authors set a goal to propose the concept of reengineering and develop a mechanism for the development of an innovative environment at the meso-scale. For this, the authors clarified the concept of the innovation environment, systematized the processes of innovation, presenting patterns of innovative ideas, knowledge and technologies, entrepreneurship, infrastructure, as well as a digital pattern. This approach allows a systematic approach to the analysis and redesign of innovative processes based on reengineering, covering the basic elements of the functioning of the innovation system. The article proposes a number of conceptual provisions for reengineering the innovative environment of the region. In particular, it was noted that in a digital economy, the speed and productivity of innovation depends on the level of interaction between its key participants (business, scientific and civil society, the state). Given the current trends in the digital transformation of innovation, the authors proposed a mechanism for the development of the innovation environment based on the reengineering methodology. For the practical implementation of the conceptual provisions and the mechanism for the development of the innovation environment, the authors proposed the introduction of a processing audit. The results obtained are of practical importance for regional authorities involved in the development of innovative activities.

Controlling is a fairly effective management tool that allows economic entities to find ways of the most optimal use of resources by continuously comparing the result with the intended purpose. Based on this, the issues of creating and effective functioning of a controlling system in an enterprise are quite relevant. When designing the organizational structure of controlling, it is first of all advisable to proceed from the fact that the organizational structure being developed should harmoniously correspond to the managerial and organizational structures of the economic entity as a whole. In this regard, it is necessary to take into account the individual characteristics and characteristics of the economic entity, as well as the conditions for organizing the process of controlling activity. In this article, the authors explore the process of designing the organizational structure of controlling in an enterprise. A group of principles is presented, the observance of which underlies the design process of the organizational structure of controlling. The characteristic of criteria-evaluation indicators of a fuzzy-multiple decision-making model on the choice of the most acceptable organizational alternative for controlling is presented. The authors propose an algorithm for using an innovative decision-making model on choosing the most acceptable organizational alternative for controlling in an enterprise.

This article discusses the issues of constructing an effective motivational system in an enterprise, as well as defines indicators for evaluating an enterprise's motivational system. The current level of production cannot develop without effective motivational systems of personnel, which must be constantly improved under the influence of economic and political conditions. Today you can buy a competitive product on the market, but you cannot buy competitiveness and incentives for it on the market. Therefore, domestic enterprises have to independently search for the most suitable and effective methods of organizing and promoting labor. In modern economic conditions, an important role for the development of the organization is played by issues of increasing the efficiency of enterprise management. The main point is the identification and proper use of the company's internal reserves. The role of employee motivation is to shape the behavior of employees, which is necessary to achieve the goals of the enterprise.

The paper discusses the importance of digitalization for modern universities in the aspect of human capital development. The issues of university integration into the Federal project «Personnel for the Digital Economy» are particularly highlighted.

The published article proposes economic and mathematical models for predicting the profits of an enterprise that incurs certain transaction costs in addition to production costs. The source of transaction costs of an enterprise is the compelled expenses for the search and processing of economic information, financing of negotiations, elaboration and conclusion of contracts with partners, organization of protection of property rights, payment of opportunistic behavior of employees and managers of the enterprise, etc. A numerical analysis of the obtained economic and mathematical models for predicting the economic indicators of an enterprise having a certain level of transaction costs shows that instead of the maximum level of profit, an enterprise can only achieve its lower optimal level, which corresponds to the optimal value of the transaction utility function.
