Abstract

The feasibility of implementing the model of smart specialization for Ukrainian regions aimed on the providing the sustainable regional development on an innovation basis and improving the households’ living conditions were grounded based on the research of European cohesion and regional policy. The EU approaches, as well as the international organizations’ and researchers’ approaches to understanding the essence of smart specialization were presented at the article. The main principles of regional smart specialization were outlined. This model of regional development is aimed on solving such problems as: boosting the innovation and competitiveness potential of European regions, as a basis for a sustainable growth model; increasing interregional cooperation, which is a key element in globalized economies; strengthening the focus on less developed and industrial transition regions; improving and building on joint work across EU policies and programs supporting innovation. The examples of smart specialization of the individual EU regions were provided in the article. It is substantiated, that smart specialization is a new model of regional and interregional partnership, which has significant potential for providing the sustainable development of the Ukraine’s regions. The priorities of this model’s implementation were grounded.
