The article is devoted to the issues of shaping and improving the conceptual approach to building a hybrid sharing platform for the ecosystem of youth social integration as well as facilitating environmental stress reducing actions on the territory. The sharing platform operation relies on the principles of sustainable development, long-term economic growth, social cohesion and reintegration, and environmental protection. These principles are embodied in the growth and development of regions exhibiting social strain, finding a balance between economic and social progress, in support for the social integration of youth and the empowerment of vulnerable population groups, especially young people, ensuring equal access to education, and environmental protection of territories. Application of a combination of such approaches to arranging a platform will ensure the implementation of innovative strategies for socioeconomic, educational, entrepreneurial and environmentally conscious activities; help to mitigate social tension by creating additional jobs, reducing unemployment, overcoming poverty and shaping modern, innovative active youth generation capable of creating their own business to improve the quality and standard of living. The key idea of this study is that integration into the university ecosystem of a new structure – the hybrid sharing platform for the ecosystem of youth social integration – will promote integrated interaction of interactive tools of the innovation chain of human capital development within a new paradigm. A new understanding of educational and innovation policy priorities and creating an appropriate institutional environment for effective ecosystem performance based on the hybrid sharing platform will contribute to further human potential development, enhancing professional, legal and environmental consciousness and awareness of youth subject to national priorities and global trends in research and technology, foster social and psychological reintegration of vulnerable groups of young people to active socioeconomic and labor activities.

The article explores the basic principles of the knowledge economy concept in modern realia of Ukraine and the European Union together with identifying the relationship between GDP growth and social welfare, on the one hand, and the quality of education and science – on the other. The European Union best practices on the implementation of knowledge economy and the opportunities it provides to Ukraine have been reviewed. The study offers insights on the current state of knowledge economy implementation in Ukraine and the major indicators that affect its successful development. Based on the research data, the key reasons behind the low level of knowledge economy in Ukraine and the bottlenecks to its development have been disclosed, specifically they are the low innovativeness of the Ukrainian economy and the lag in the area of information and communication technologies. Complex solutions to the above problems are proposed along with providing benefits of investing into research and education. In the context of enhancing the competitiveness of Ukraine’s economy, emphasis is put on the need to create a favorable organizational and economic environment for developing the intellectual property market, promoting innovative entrepreneurship and facilitating innovation infrastructure. It is argued that the suggested pathways will contribute to handling the current economic challenges providing proper background for implementing an innovation model of Ukraine’s economic development. Integrated approaches to conducting an in-depth-study of the knowledge economy in Ukraine are proposed with a focus to enhance investments into education and science. The theoretical significance of the study is to establish a relationship between education, science and economic development in the frameworks of knowledge economy in Europe and Ukraine. The practical implications of the research are aimed at identifying the most successful pathways to implement the sustainable knowledge economy paradigm in Ukraine.

The article explores the nature of digital transformation as a new economic phenomenon that drives the transition from the traditional economy to a digital one, based on electronic infrastructure, e-business, e-commerce, electronic money, and e-government. The study identifies the key modern technologies that spur digital transformation of the economy, in particular, smart-technology, the Internet of things, industrial Internet of things, big data analytics and artificial intelligence, as well as specifies the three major digital transformation factors that affect the economy and the society, i. e. scale, scope, and speed; ownership, assets and economic value; relationships, markets and ecosystems. The latter shape the basic properties of digital transformation, in particular, changes in scale, scope, and speed result from the conversion of information into digital bits that can be processed and analysed by computers or smartphones. Over the last 50 years, the digitization of information has become exponentially cheaper and faster that affected the nature of assets generating value. In turn, these changes have significant impact upon the structure and operation of digital-based markets and thus create new ecosystems of supply, demand, and exchange. Digital transformation is a unique phenomenon by its speed and scale. Apart from the above, it also challenges traditional thinking on the most effective pattern of economic and social activities arrangement. The Internet and online public platforms enable a wide range of networking activities that serve the common good and public interests. Markets take on new scope, scale, and boom as well as non-market transactions and person-to-person interactions.

This paper asserts that domestic government loan bonds is an effective investment tool and offers a framework for evaluating government bonds as an investment instrument within a corporate business. The research findings demonstrate that the investment success of the corporate enterprise depends on domestic market bond liquidity and the risks associated with the external environment uncertainty. The purpose of this study is to assess the role of domestic government loan bonds within corporate investment policy. To achieve the research objective, the following methods have been employed: a synthesis – to identify the nature of corporate investment policy, methods of economic statistical analysis – to provide a government bond market analysis, and comparative structural analysis – to explore the preferences and benefits associated with the use of international practice in the area of developing a government debt policy. Data analysis for the period 2013-2017 indicates that the increase in domestic public debt in Ukraine negatively affects the companies in their decision to invest in government bonds. The operation of the united forces (formerly, the anti-terrorist operation) in Eastern Ukraine has triggered a 10 times increase in domestic public debt compared with the real GDP growth. The public increased to 143,2 billion UAH which was perceived as knock-on effects of inflation and 14% of GDP behind the banking crisis and the cost of its overcoming within 2014-2016. Corporate investing in domestic government loan bonds depends on the area of corporate enterprise operation. It is argued that companies with superior financial performance should invest in bonds, thus contributing to their further growth by creating a solid background for building competitiveness. High risks and low financial capacity characterize other sectors of industry, which company should wait for more information before investing in government bonds. High risks and low finance opportunities feature other industry sectors, and firms in these sectors should anticipate additional information prior to investing into the government bonds.

The article seeks to explore and evaluate the level of risk management maturity in Ukrainian enterprises in the process of ensuring their economic security. The study presents the results of an analytical survey on risk management practices to ensure enterprise economic security. To achieve the research objectives, the following methods have been employed: to obtain data for the analytical research, the method of questionnaire-based expert evaluation on the Google Forms platform; the method of comparison, the graphical method – to evaluate previously received analytical data on the risk management maturity level. The findings revealed that the implementation of a risk-based approach is perceived as a tool to increase the company value and achieve strategic goals. The survey results showed the distribution of expert opinions, indicating the willingness of Ukrainian companies to implement risk-oriented management approaches to ensure their economic security. It is demonstrated that the major objective of the risk-oriented approach is to ensure the effective and lawful business operation in the long run which may come into a conflict with the operational management priority, i. e. short term profit maximization. The analytical survey argues that a risk-oriented approach challenges the use of impartial methods to risk identification, taking risk management actions, and the search for an optimal solution between profit raising here and now, and the long-term sustainable development and protection of shareholders’ interests. The study on the latest tools for assessing the level of economic security using a risk-oriented approach is a critical instrument in enhancing corporate management practices at different management levels, providing further nation-wide implications on stabilization of domestic business performance to improve the overall national security indicators in the international economic and political arenas.

The article discusses the main provisions on the selection and application of technology strategy at the corporate level and in particular business settings. Based on the in-depth analysis of international best practice, it is argued that a technology strategy is part of an overall comprehensive strategy that penetrates into all other strategies of a company strategic set and sets an imperative for innovative development in the market. Apparently, in some cases, a company business strategy actually makes its competitive management plan. Diversified companies run their own corporate strategies by a synergistic combination of different business strategies along with taking into account the specific coordination strategy, diversification or restructuring of company portfolios, if such exist. It is proved that technology vision, which entails technology policy and related objectives, drives the implementation of a company technology strategy and is a key determinant of company success on the market. It is also argued that the core of technology management concept is full harmonization of technology and the overall business strategy. The study has revealed that the aim of technology strategy is a competitive technology edge which means gaining specific outcomes needed to consumers. A focus on technology strategy and efficient embodiment of decisions are particularly important for technology-intensive types of production. However, time and financial horizons in conventional business realia promote such level of competition that allows for creating new exclusive competitive advantages which is a synergistic formation of new qualities based on extensive experience of many managers.

The article emphasizes a commonly recognized fact of exceptional significance of education for national economic and social development, enhancing its competitiveness in the world arena and knowledge-intensity of production. It is argued that education is a vital link that unites all sectors of the economy and social aspects as well as a critical accompanying element in the life of every individual that creates human and social capital. Traditionally, education refers to the area of a government regulation and control that sets its development priorities and vectors. However, to date, reforming the education sector is becoming a global mainstream trend which promotes a shift from government regulation towards a conditional mechanism of self-regulation. Thus, viewing education as an object of market regulation is of particular relevance in modern realia which has underpinned the objectives of this study. From the national economic development perspective, the article provides insights on education industry through the prism of a market mechanism which allows for identifying an educational service category as its major regulation object. Based on the domestic and international research surveys, the key and characteristic features of the education sector have been revealed which determined its specifics as a system of mixed private-public goods. The study also discusses the basic approaches to the interpretation of an education market, its functions and key structural elements which primarily include consumers, suppliers, intermediaries, sources of finance, etc. On the basis of research findings, a conclusion has been made about the critical need to balance government regulation of the educational services sector with the use of market mechanisms and tools.

Economic development and socioeconomic cohesion have always been an object of scientific research. In particular, this issue had become a focus of attention after EU enlargement in 2004 and Great Recession in 2007–2009. The above changes have given way to a certain slowdown in economic growth in most EU countries along with triggering a range of divergence processes between EU countries and regions. As a response to situation, the EU offered a Europe 2020 strategy, in which smart growth was mentioned as one of critical instruments to deal with increasing menaces. The objective of the study is to evaluate the progress of the main smart growth indicators (investment in research and development (R&D), employment rate and share of population obtaining tertiary education) in the EU over the period 2001–2017 within the framework of the economic cohesion concept. The paper seeks to explore the EU from different perspectives. First, the EU new member states (EU-10) and the old ones (EU-14) were compared. Second, the EU countries were divided by economic development level (calculated by GDP per capita in PPP): highly developed (H-7), medium developed (M-7) and less developed (L-7) countries. Finally, aggregate cohesion indices of all three smart growth indicators were calculated for the entire EU (EU-28). The research findings have revealed some interesting trends. First, each smart growth indicator’s progress depends on countries’ economic development level. Aggregate values for more developed countries (EU-14, H-7 and G-3) are always higher than the EU average (EU-28) and aggregate values for less developed economies are basically lower. Second, cohesion progress of smart growth indicators was influenced by economic recession in 2007–2009. It is argued that cohesion is evident in times of economic growth, but its progress ceases or divergence might occur in case of economic hazards. However, despite the expanding cohesion between the new and the old member states, a gap between certain groups of countries is even growing. This is clearly evident when the EU member states are divided into groups subject to the level of their economic development.

The identification of the nature of intellectual entrepreneurship in institutions of higher education has enabled to justify its specific principles, map the key problems of intellectual entrepreneurship development in Ukrainian universities and outline the pathways to their solution. The paper offers a concept of innovative entrepreneurship in institutions of higher education based on commercialization of intellectual activity results (IAR) viewed as a separate type of activity aimed at creation and realization of the commercial potential of university R&D results which relies on its own principles and is ensured through specific instruments within the University's infrastructure and is implemented in unique organizational forms. To ensure the implementation of the suggested organizational and economic mechanism, the content, principles and objectives of infrastructural support for commercialization of intellectual activity results in institutions of higher education have been developed. The heart of the organizational model for commercialization of IAR in institutions of higher education is an engineering centre. A multi-project mechanism for managing the commercialization of IAR in institutions of higher education has also been proposed, the core of which is a permanent project office operating within the engineering centre with engaged cross-functional teams on commercialization and respective project organizational structures to promote the entry of innovative products based on advanced developments of institutions of higher education into the market. The use of the developed assessment criteria for evaluating the innovation and commercial potentials of intellectual activity results facilitates a reasonable selection of intellectual activity results for commercialization (subject to their innovative and commercial potential assessment) along with providing an objective comparison of IAR and innovative products by various criteria combinations to set the priorities and make rational decisions in the area of financing and resourcing which enhances the overall efficiency of innovation activities and intellectual entrepreneurship performance in institutions of higher education.
