Annotation: In modern conditions, innovation is becoming the most important factor in the sustainable development of countries. Russia lags significantly behind the world leaders in terms of innovation. This problem is aggravated by the low innovation activity of the regions, the imbalance in the development of innovations by subjects, and the lack of innovation systems in certain regions. The purpose of the study is to identify problems that hinder the development of innovations in the region and solve them through the development of a regional innovation system as a condition for the sustainable development. The methodological basis of the research was a systematic approach, including a set of methods: analysis, rating, index, historical methods. The result of the study was the clarification of the definition of the national innovation system and the forming of a functional model of the regional innovation system. The model is proposed to be considered not as a triunique system “state, university and business”, but as a unity of its 4 components, including state authorities, the education and science system, innovative entrepreneurship and innovative infrastructure. The core of this system is a person who is able to transform implicit knowledge into explicit knowledge. The presented functional model can serve as a conceptual basis for the forming of a regional innovation system and the development of a strategy for the development of innovative activity of the subject.
