The paper aims to develop and apply a methodological approach that could help to reveal incentives and future strategies of key National Innovation System (NIS) players considering the influence of global social, economic, scientific, technological and ecological trends. To fulfil this aim, a blended foresight methodology was applied, grounded on the platform of economic and classic foresight theory and considering four possible directions for using foresight methods: investigating and building a common vision; supporting evidence-based decisions; promoting communication and participation; inducing transformation and integration into the decision-making process. The main results and findings of the research include a list of 19 global trends, defined from literature analysis and the author’s expert knowledge, a short description of their influence on key NIS players, including society, business, infrastructure and institutions, science, education and government; and mapping more than 35 different foresight methods that could be used for revealing incentives and future strategies of key NIS players. The article’s theoretical contribution to economic theory consists of several parts. First, a NIS conception is examined through the prism of global trends and a dynamic aspect, whereas it is mostly investigated from statistical and static perspectives. Second, applying foresight as an instrument for researching NIS as a system is a developing academic area with some theoretical gaps, considered in this article by designing a conceptional research framework. Third, blending different foresight methods is always a craft, and the approach applied in this article contributes to it. Finally, the article presents several important trends which will appear in NIS and its key players’ transformation in the nearest 5–10 years. From practical implications, this article could be useful for proactive policymakers in the field of science, technology and innovation policy at national and regional levels for designing and providing measures for supporting innovation systems effectively. Foresight practitioners and experts are offered useful, practical ideas of different foresight methods and their possible combinations for everyday activities.

The article contains a cross-country analysis of the effectiveness of innovation management based on information from the Global Innovation Index among the countries of the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). From the analysis, it follows that the problem in the EAEU countries is low demand for innovations and its inefficient structure: it is more profitable for enterprises in the EAEU countries to purchase ready-made equipment abroad than to engage in their own innovative activities. A comparative analysis of the Global Innovation Index shows that indicators of the development of institutions and infrastructure ensure the relatively high positions of Kazakhstan, first of all, with a significant lag in all measurements of the efficiency of resource use of innovation.

Artykuł zawiera ogólnokrajową analizę skuteczności zarządzania innowacjami opartą na informacjach z Global Innovation Index wśród krajów Eurazjatyckiej Unii Gospodarczej (EAEU). Z analizy wynika, że problemem w krajach EAEU jest niski popyt na innowacje i jego nieefektywna struktura: bardziej opłacalne jest dla przedsiębiorstw w krajach EAEU kupowanie gotowego sprzętu za granicą niż angażowanie się we własną działalność innowacyjną. Analiza porównawcza Global Innovation Index pokazuje, że wskaźniki rozwoju instytucji i infrastruktury zapewniają stosunkowo wysokie pozycje Kazachstanu, przede wszystkim ze znacznym opóźnieniem we wszystkich pomiarach efektywności wykorzystania zasobów przez innowacje.

Introduction - the purpose of the article is to determine the theoretical and legislative bases for the definition and construction of the national innovation system and its subsystems, to establish gaps in the regulatory legal regulation of the economic activity of individual elements - subjects of the NIS. Methods of research - structural and functional methods of analysis are used to determine the existing competence of the participants of the national innovation system of Ukraine and the ability to perform the necessary functions for the system. Methods of analysis and synthesis were used in the study of theoretical models of innovative systems and their structure. The normativist method (formal and legal) was used in the study of the actual state of legislative securing of the NIS. Results of the research - Based on the analyzed scientific sources and on the basis of regulatory acts of Ukraine, it is necessary to distinguish the following NIS subsystems, which require significant legislative regulation: subsystem of generation of knowledge and education, subsystem of production of products and services, subsystem of innovative infrastructure, subsystem «National network technology transfer», Territorial (regional) subsystems. Discussion with the other scientists - most views on the essence of a NIS can be divided into the following groups: structural approach, subsystem approach, functional and structural. However, these models do not sufficiently address the role of the lowest level of the administrative system - the united territorial communities as the only one as close as possible to the governmental structure. In this direction, it is necessary to extend the limits of financial capacity of territorial communities on the principles of transparency, accessibility, sufficiency. Summary and conclusions - for the harmonious and timely development of the National Innovation System it is necessary to comprehensively approach the legislative regulation of relations in the innovation system and its subsystems, as well as to formulate guidelines for the formation of the system of regulation of innovative activity in the laws.

The international competitiveness of the national economy largely depends on the innovative abilities of companies and domestic industry. In this context, adequate shaping of national innovation policy is of crucial importance. It is essential to direct innovation policy in such a way that it should lead to the development of opportunities associated with current and future competitive advantages of the economy. The article contains an assessment of the impact of selected public support instruments used in Poland in the period 2007-2013 for the intensification of the innovation processes in the domestic economy. The purpose of the research is to analyse and assess the effectiveness of selected public support instruments implemented in Poland in the 2007 – 2013 period. This leads to the following research hypothesis: public support instruments implemented in Poland in the years 2007 – 2013 had an impact on the level of innovativeness of Polish economy when compared to 2004 – 2006 period. The research method included the evaluation of: 1) the compliance of the aims of the investigated instruments with the general and detailed objectives of “Dynamic Poland 2020” strategy and 2) the influence of the investigated instruments on the changes of the indicators that measure innovation performance (innovation enablers and innovation results).

The paper presents and compares organisation of national innovation systems in Poland and Israel focusing on the role of innovation, entrepreneurship and technology transfer centres, as the intermediaries between the R&D and the industry. The paper argues that close cooperation and mutual interactions between the world of science and business accelerate innovation commercialisation processes and stimulate innovative and competitive growth of the economy.
