One of the key factors of innovative development is the availability of a favorable innovative environment ensuring the transformation of ideas and developments into market products, introduction of these products into most important branches of economics and social sphere, as well as allowing saving the unique set of scientific and engineering schools. But the key problem for implementation of effective innovations is the absence of favorable environment and innovative climate promoting creation of innovations, ensuring the growth of global competitive ability, labor productivity, and life quality of population. Thus, the formation and development of the innovative environment as the most important condition for implementation of effective innovations represents the actual scientific task of significant national economic importance. Digital technologies are best developed in a harmonious ecosystem. Nowadays, ecosystem-based projects are becoming more popular, when a community of people connected by common interests is formed; the economy is very rapidly migrating into the history of ecosystems. In the next 10 years, we should expect the competition of ecosystems, digital platforms integrated between each other: in the upcoming global digital economy, that economic contour will win, which will be the fastest growing in the number and quality of digital platforms integrated into a single ecosystem. That is, the digital economy should be seen as an ecosystem economy.
