Abstract
Nowadays, innovative companies provide the leading positions in the industry of countries and regions. The leading role in the generation of innovative entrepreneurship is played by universities, as a place where science, education, intelligence, and the commercial initiative of young people are concentrated. However, in Russia, the opportunities and resources for creating, producing, and applying innovations at universities are undervalued, which actualizes the problem of developing innovative entrepreneurship at universities. The purpose of the study was to analyze the state of innovative entrepreneurship of Russian universities and determine the vector of its strategic development in the context of the new regional industrial policy formation. The methods of dialectics and comparisons, analogies and statistical measurements were used for this study. Methodological aspects of the study are considered in the context of the resource and system approaches. The article analyzes the performance of innovative entrepreneurship in Russian universities based on the use of indicators characterizing the presence and effectiveness of university small innovative enterprises, the quality of their entrepreneurial functions and orientation for industrial leadership. The factors affecting the development of innovative entrepreneurship in Russian economic universities are highlighted, and the conditions for the complex development of university research and practice are developed. The study is descriptive and constructed with the methods of discursive analysis. The conclusions summarize the directions proposed by the authors for the development of innovative entrepreneurship at Russian universities to ensure the strategic leadership of the regional industry. The results of the study can be used while working out the strategic directions of industrial and innovative development of regions, the development strategy of universities.
