Annotation: The article examines modern approaches to the forming and implementation of innovative mechanisms for in- teraction between the state, business, and civil society. Emphasis is placed on the need to move from traditional partnership models to network forms of cooperation based on open innovation, digitalization, and sustainable development. The tools of public-private and public-public partnerships are analyzed, as well as the role of digital platforms in ensuring transparency and efficiency of communication between participants. It is shown that the intensification of unilateral economic restrictions and the need to boost domestic investment require a transition from traditional, administrative models of interaction to network forms based on the principles of open innovation, digitalization, and sustainable development, which can be achieved through increased cooperation between the government, business, and civil society. The directions of improving the institutional environment are proposed, contributing to the development of the innovation ecosystem and strengthening trust between sectors. It is shown that the key direction for developing innovative mechanisms for interaction between the state, busi- ness, and society is the forming of a unified digital partnership ecosystem, which will allow for the integration of databases, platforms, and services for all participants, simplify the search for partners and sources of financing, and automate the processes of monitoring and evaluating projects.

Annotation: The article develops an approximate version of the model of institutional transformation in the sphere of repro- duction of innovations through public-private partnership (PPP). The growing need for the said transformation is substantiated, and the general outline is proposed and the organic integrity of the proposed institutional transformations in the sphere of development of relevant partnership relations between the state and business is characterized. The necessity of a qualitative update of the constitutional “rules about rules” for the forming of new institutions in the sphere of PPP, ensuring the expanded reproduction of cognitive and product innovations, is proven. The critical role of the power-ownership system in increasing the efficiency of PPP, based on civil society and the rule of law, is considered. The key role of the intellectual firm in the general structural model of the institutional mechanism of public-private partnership in the sphere of innovation creation and, in general, the development of innovative relations in the modern economy is verified. The institutions that ensure the creative focus of the new model of partnership relations between the state and private business in the context of increas- ing complexity are characterized.

Annotation: The article clarifies the interpretation and specifies the content of the technological paradigm as a structural and reproductive integrity. The ontology of the change of technological paradigms as the dynamics of the organic integrity of related industries is revealed. The moving boundaries of the specific weights of private and public participation in the sphere of expanded reproduction of technological innovations are considered, and attention is focused on the creation of new forms of interaction between the market and the state in the sphere of ensuring highly efficient technological transformation. Interdisciplinary aspects of the formation, development and change of socio-economic systems, as well as the corresponding technological paradigms, are characterized. A nanocog- nitive form of human capital is proposed, relevant to the hypothetical seventh technological paradigm based on the system of tacit knowledge with an unconditional creative orientation of economic development. It is shown that for the successful development of technological innovations, a relevant technology of economic-ideological, institutional, cognitive, organizational-managerial and other transformations is necessary. The new role of state entrepreneurship in solving the problems of highly effective technological transformation has been verified.

Annotation: The article offers a general description of the dynamic forms of artificial intelligence (AI) as an innovative factor in the systemic transformation of the modern economy. An assumption is made about the possible emergence of a conditional fourth stage of AI development (the stage of “digital cognitive plasma”), based on the superpowers of neural networks, in interaction with big knowledge, in the field of expanded reproduction of both the system of implicit and explicit knowledge. The contradictory consequences of the influence of artificial intelligence on the human capital of an economic entity are analyzed within the framework of the dichotomy “creativity – labor”. The conclusion is substantiated about the continuous reduction in the share of “live” creativity in the system of general forms of innovative relations, in favor of the “creativity” of AI technologies. The modern specificity is revealed and alternative consequences of the digital transformation of the human capital market are characterized in the context of the current stage of domestic socio-economic development. The negative effects of the influence of AI on the dynamics of demand for domestic human capital and the forms of its supply, caused by the features of the development of relevant regional, industry, monopoly and international economic relations, are shown. An interdisciplinary list of the main arguments for and against the use of artificial intelligence technologies in the modern economy is proposed.

Annotation: The article presents current measures to support small and medium-sized businesses in the Russian Federa- tion. Priority sectors of small and medium-sized businesses for the provision of investment loans in 2025–2030 are considered. Loans issued to small and medium-sized businesses in 2017–2023 are analyzed, as well as the dynamics of the volume of loans provided to small and medium-sized businesses. The impact of the 2022–2024 sanctions on the availability of long-term financing is considered. The study highlights short-term liquidity instru- ments that can become a starting point for future reforms, strengthening the country’s position as a developing entrepreneurial power. Factors that hinder the development of lending to small and medium-sized businesses are revealed, including regulatory restrictions, insufficient financial literacy, and the high cost of credit resources, and their causes and consequences are considered. The conclusion of the study presents the findings, recom- mendations, and prospects for the development of bank lending to small and medium-sized businesses in Russia.
