 Re-distribution of knowledge for innovation around RussiaAnna A. Mikhaylova and Andrey S. Mikhaylov International Journal of Technological Learning, Innovation and Development, 2016, vol. 8, issue 1, 37-56 Abstract: This article reveals research results on comparative analysis of the subjects of the Russian Federation in terms of accumulation of new codified knowledge with a high degree of readiness for commercialisation, i.e., the commercially ready knowledge (CRN). The study is based on two scientific approaches: 'ideas are embodied in patents' and 'ideas are concentrated in the regions'. The method of cluster analysis was used to identify four types of regions according to the share of CRN accumulated in the respective regions on a national scale. Within the first three clusters - the major, large and medium, the following sub-clusters were identified: 'largely creators' and 'largely consumers'. The relationship between the level of innovative economic development of the region and the need for CRN is confirmed. Conclusions are made on comparability of generated and absorbed flow of new knowledge within regional innovation systems. Keywords: regional innovation systems; Russia; new knowledge; commercially ready knowledge; CRN; knowledge distribution; commercialisation; cluster analysis; economic development; regional development.
