Abstract: Abstract— The study examines the effects arising from the activity of industrial and technology parks at the regional level. Based on the financial and economic indicators of residents of industrial and technology parks, the geography of their activity at the federal subject level is considered. For this, the author used his database on residents, created from information for 2013–2018 from the Orbis commercial database, as well as open data from the Federal Tax Service of Russia and Rosstat statistics. It is shown that there is a strong market concentration of industrial and technology parks in several Russian regions, first of all, Moscow, Moscow and Kaluga oblasts, and the Republic of Tatarstan. This is mainly due to objective reasons, including the agglomeration effect, capacious sales markets and labor force, and other investment attractiveness indicators. Most industrial and technology parks currently have no significant impact on the development of the regions in which they are created. This may be due to a number of factors, including an insufficiently competent investment-resident policy of administrative structures. Based on the results of the study, it is concluded that the role of industrial and technology parks in socioeconomic development is significant only in a few regions with highly competitive advantages. In most regions lacking these advantages, parks have no significant impact on development.
