Abstract:

The study focuses on the creative potential of key actors in leading innovative technology platform companies, aiming to understand the intricate internal interactions within these platforms. While researchers have extensively explored transactional platforms, there is a gap in understanding the mechanisms of interaction in innovative technological platforms. The article highlights the institutional-priority creative determinant in the economic trends of platform-network development. Using the methodology of interdisciplinary synthesis, the author develops an integrated model based on the creative potential of internal actors, competitive intellectual products, and the total creative potential of both internal and external actors. The study concludes by outlining potential applications of the developed model in shaping national champions for scientific, technological, and economic security, along with discussing the prospects and risks of state regulation for innovative technology platform companies.
