摘要：The study of the economic institutions of the diffusion of convergent technologies in the modern economy has a direct connection with sustainable development. The expansion of ultra-modern industries in the course of the "tertialization" of the economy (the growth of the sector of high-tech material and non-material production) makes it possible to significantly reduce resource consumption and the burden on the environment, while maintaining and increasing traditional economic values (income, well-being, employment, quality of life). The expansion of convergent technologies in technologically advanced countries is taking place in parallel with the formation of a "green" economy, which forms an independent technological platform for sustainable development, and may become the main one in the coming decades. The innovative upgrade of the extractive industries up to the Industry 4.0 level, based on this platform, requires special support from the state, primarily in the extractive countries. A special role in this process is assigned to the institutional support for the diffusion of convergent technologies, which is especially in demand in the Russian economy.
