Exhaustion of non-renewable mineral resources determines sustainable socio-economic development of resource-based regions. However, mineral resource abundance is an essential competitive advantage that can be used for innovative development of regional economies. At the first stage of creating innovative economy, pilot innovation projects can be implemented in mining industry, and then in manufacturing and service sectors of economy. For this, an effective model of innovative activity in a resource-based region should be developed. In this article we consider the “triple helix” model. The purpose of this article is to assess the potential for innovative development of a resource-based region through the “triple helix” model. We have studied the Krasnoyarsk Krai as a typical resource-based region. The use of the “triple helix” model results in a change in the roles of actors in innovation process. Universities play a major role and become entrepreneurial universities. The entrepreneurial university aims to create and implement innovations through technology transfer to industry. At the same time, the government becomes an equal partner of innovation process, and a customer for the development of advanced production technologies. Effective implementation of the “triple helix” model requires quantitative assessment at a regional level. For this, we suggest a system of indicators and methodology for assessing the level of innovative development for a resource-based region. This methodology is our contribution to the theory of innovative development
Переход от экспортно-сырьевой зависимости к устойчивому экономическому росту предполагает структурные изменения в национальной экономике, основанные на взаимодействии добывающего сектора с отраслями, генерирующими новые знания и технологии. Для привлечения наукоемких предприятий в ре-гионы, связанные с добычей полезных ископаемых, требуется создание благоприятного инвестиционного климата, развитой инфраструктуры, системы налоговых льгот для приоритетных отраслей. Целенаправлен-ная региональная политика модернизации экономики должна быть обеспечена финансовыми источниками. В настоящей работе проведен анализ источников модернизации экономики сырьевых регионов. Исследова-ние основано на статистических данных двадцати двух регионов Российской Федерации, имеющих сырье-вую специализацию экономики. Применение методов экономического анализа выявило неравномерность распределения финансовых потоков от добычи полезных ископаемых: большая часть экспортной выручки от продажи природных богатств концентрируется в субъектах РФ, не связанных с добычей. При этом ресурс-ные регионы обеспечивают больше половины налоговых поступлений в федеральный бюджет, а в резуль-тате имеют дефицитные бюджеты. Изъятие значительной части природной ренты из хозяйственного обо-рота ресурсных территорий лишает регионы собственных источников модернизации экономики и резервов устойчивого развития.

Several channels of transmission from resourcedependence to sustainable economic growth have been discussed in recent literature. One of these channels involves economy transformation when mineral extraction industries interact with high-tech sector. A favorable investment climate should be provided for new industries in resource-abundant regions through infrastructure development and tax incentives for priority sectors. Regional modernization policy needs financial sources. The aim of the study is to analyze financial drivers for resource-rich regions development. Our study is based on statistical data from twenty two Russian resource-abundant regions. We demonstrate the uneven distribution of financial flows from the extraction of mineral resources in Russia. The most part of export earnings from natural resources sales is concentrated in central Russian regions that are not involved in resource extraction. However, resource-rich regions provide more than half of tax revenues to the Federal budget, and as a result they have scarce budgets. A significant part of natural rent is accumulated outside the resource-rich regions. This means the regions don't have their own drivers of development.
