In other words, this means public policy management towards such regional initiatives, activities and projects that will make a particular specialization in that region or country real, or the development of some technologies or products and services using these technologies. The realization of the goal of SMART specialization defines the possibility of achieving the goal of socio-economic development of the regions, which is to increase competitiveness and innovation activity at the regional level. Since the presence of innovations in the modern globalized world is the main factor of economic growth. Considering the significant results of the SMART specialization, as well as the need to deepen our country's cooperation with the EU countries within the framework of the European Neighborhood Policy and the Association Agreement with the EU, it is necessary to implement the analyzed concept in the field of regional policy in Ukraine.
