REGIONAL INITIATIVES FOR STATE SUPPORT OF SMALL AND MEDIUM-SIZED ENTERPRISES IN THE RUSSIAN FEDERATIONLomonosov Public Administration Journal. Series 21 2024. N 2. p.93-108read more520

This work is dedicated to the exploration of regional initiatives for state support of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the Russian Federation. SMEs play a crucial role in the country’s economic development, and the government actively promotes their growth through various programs and initiatives. Despite the existence of a complex set of financial, informational, and legal instruments at the national level, regions devise specific actions tailored to the unique needs of the labor market, resource base, and other factors. The objective of this work is to identify the characteristics of regional initia- tives for state support of SMEs, taking into account both internal and external factors influencing their success. To achieve this goal, a combination of general scientific and specific methods is employed, including content analysis and comparative analysis.
The research findings indicate that regional initiatives for state support can significantly contribute to the development of SMEs. However, the success of such initiatives depends on multiple factors, including effective management, accessibility of financial resources, and the level of entrepreneur involvement.
Scope of application of the research results: activities of regional authori- ties, entrepreneurs, researchers in the field of entrepreneurship theory and practice, addressing issues related to the support of small and medium-sized businesses.
The conclusions of this research underscore the importance of collabora- tion between government entities and entrepreneurs in creating effective mecha- nisms to support SMEs, reinforcing the position of small and medium-sized enterprises in the Russian Federation’s economy, and fostering its sustainable socio-economic developm

Introduction. The sustainable development of the region in conditions of turbulence requires the development of adaptive mechanisms and appropriate tools to ensure it. The prospects for the implementation of the principles of sustainable development in Russia cannot be considered separately from the ongoing market reforms in the state. The transition to sustainable development of both the country as a whole and its individual regions should occur in close connection with a radical structural and technical and technological restructuring of social production based on accelerating the pace of scientific and technological progress, in particular, towards comprehensive greening not only of the basic sectors of the economy, but also of all spheres of human activity. The urgency of modernizing regional socio-economic and ecological systems is due to the formation of special conditions for economic growth in the regions, taking into account the processes of economic integration and the dominance of the theoretical foundations of the concept of sustainable development in most countries and regions of the world, and Russia is no exception. Research methods. The methodological basis of this work is the integrated use of a set of general scientific and special research methods. In particular, a systematic approach has made it possible to develop a theoretical model of regional development and the boundaries of the state's regulatory influence on it. The study of the problem of state regulation of regional development has become possible through the use of a number of other scientific methods, among which the retrospective method is widely used, in which the subject of research is analyzed in its sequential development, in the context of a specific historical situation and the factors influencing it at each stage. This trend has made it possible to identify the relationship between the past, present and future: the mechanisms and tools of state influence on regions that were used in the past have not lost their relevance and can be applied in modern conditions. Result. The study of the implementation of sustainable development policy in the regions of the Russian Federation under conditions of turbulence has been further developed, and the directions of transformation of economic relations against the background of regionalization processes in the socio-political sphere, economy and institutional environment of the regional space have been identified, which determines the appearance of certain effects that are important from the perspective of ensuring the sustainable development of the regions of the state. Conclusion. As a result of the analysis, ways are proposed to improve the organizational and economic factors of managing the sustainable development of regions in conditions of turbulence by: increasing the adaptability of regional potential based on innovative technologies, optimizing and ensuring flexibility of economic, organizational and administrative levers of influence on investment and innovation processes, and diversifying them through the introduction of "soft" adaptive ones.
