Abstract: The article deals with the methodical approach to evaluation the level of knowledge economy development. It's based on a three-level structure of the complex index, wich is consisting of components: an innovative component, an educational component and the component of ICT. This approach is also based on calculation of integral parameters by entropy method. It's aims to grouping regions according to the level of the knowledge economy components. The results indicate a significant regional differentiation in Ukraine, which is due to their different levels of socio-economic development and deepening of inter-regional disparities and the concentration of innovation, information and education activity in the more developed regions.
