Обоснована актуальность и перспективность исследования развития региональных систем на основе концепции ключевых компетенций. Представлена теоретико-методологическая база исследования ключевых компетенций региона. В качестве факторов, влияющих на формирование ключевых компетенций региона, обозначены процессы глобализации, цифровизации экономики и человеческий капитал. Утверждается, что конкурентоспособность региона в глобальной экономике определяется его способностью привлекать инвестиции, инновации, человеческий капитал и другие ресурсы на основе компетенций субъектов территории. Предложен макет матрицы ключевых компетенций субъектов региона: власть, бизнес, наука, как основных субъектов, определяющих возможности инновационного развития территории.
Introduction. Modern challenges of Industry 4.0, digitalization of socio-economic processes, and global competition for all types of resources determine the relevance of rethinking theoretical and methodological issues of spatial development of the national economy. The aim of the research is a theoretical and methodological substantiation of the possibility of using the key competencies concept when researching the regional systems. The region is considered as a self-sufficient, self-forming, and self-developing system that has its own resources and socio-economic benefits. Moreover, it has the ability to independently form key combinations of resources that is, the region’s core competencies. The region’s core competencies are understood as the ability of the subjects of a region to establish conditions for sustainable economic development of the territory. Results. The region carries out activities in various areas of society in the face of state and municipal authorities, business and science, which makes it possible to consider the core competencies of these subjects, taking into account the criteria of universality and functionality. Universal competences are identified as following: 1) managerial competencies - the ability to organize the work of a subject (institution), the ability to form teams for solving professional tasks; 2) communicative competences - the ability to develop communications in the field of professional activity, taking into account multiculturalism and multilingual territory and markets; 3) project competences - the ability to introduce and adapt innovations in a certain field of activity; 4) digital competencies - the ability to verify and structure information obtained from various sources. As a working tool for the study of region’s core competences, a matrix of competencies was proposed. It reflects both the universal abilities of government, business, science, and the necessary functional skills. Conclusion. The analysis of theoretical concepts of foreign and domestic scientists revealed the prospects for the study of the regional systems based on the concept of core competencies. The region’s core competencies can be represented with the competencies of its subjects, including management institutions (government), business, and science. The core competences of the subjects are their abilities to provide facilities for the development of a regional socio-economic system due to the ability to develop communications and attract investment, and the ability to form teams for the development of innovations.
