- Abstract
Under the present conditions of economic development and in the age of new industrialization, urban communities of a new industrial type come in place of industrial cities of the past. New industrial cities are notable for the predominance of advanced production facilities, the education system intended to provide professional training required by the present day industries, and the management system based on the active involvement of a municipal community. In fact, new industrial cities and their impact on economic development of regions remain beyond many scholars’ interest and consideration. In order to fill the information gap, the authors, with reference to the official statistic data available, explore the significance of new industrial cities in regional economy in two directions: socio-economic and technological development of a Russian Federation subject. The study suggests that the economic development of Russia in 2010-2015 was driven by regions with new industrial cities and their contribution into the process. Twenty new industrial cities with 18 out of the total top Russian technology companies can be considered the nuclei of the concentrated accumulation of the national technological potential and technological advancement. The authors come to the conclusion that new industrial cities, even now contributing notably to the economy of their regions and the country as a whole, are supposed to lay the foundation for the national economic development of the future.
