Agnessa O. Inshakova - Smart Technologies for the Digitisation of Industry: Entrepreneurial Environment

The Smart Innovation, Systems and Technologies book series encompasses the topics of knowledge, intelligence, innovation and sustainability. The aim of the series is to make available a platform for the publication of books on all aspects of single and multi-disciplinary research on these themes in order to make the latest results available in a readily-accessible form. Volumes on interdisciplinary research combining two or more of these areas is particularly sought.

The series covers systems and paradigms that employ knowledge and intelligence in a broad sense. Its scope is systems having embedded knowledge and intelligence, which may be applied to the solution of world problems in industry, the environment and the community. It also focusses on the knowledge-transfer methodologies and innovation strategies employed to make this happen effectively. The combination of intelligent systems tools and a broad range of applications introduces a need for a synergy of disciplines from science, technology, business and the humanities. The series will include conference proceedings, edited collections, monographs, handbooks, reference books, and other relevant types of book in areas of science and technology where smart systems and technologies can offer innovative solutions.

High quality content is an essential feature for all book proposals accepted for the series. It is expected that editors of all accepted volumes will ensure that contributions are subjected to an appropriate level of reviewing process and adhere to KES quality principles.

Indexed by SCOPUS, EI Compendex, INSPEC, WTI Frankfurt eG, zbMATH, Japanese Science and Technology Agency (JST), SCImago, DBLP.

All books published in the series are submitted for consideration in Web of Science.

The book is designed to fuse technology and a body of knowledge through the elaboration of theoretical concepts and conceptual frameworks to ensure the economic growth of the Russian Federation by utilizing the huge potential for innovative and environmental entrepreneurship in Russia. The research is intended to solve the most challenging problems facing digitalization in the field of environmental entrepreneurship in the country: the need for specialized personnel training; the considerable financial resources needed for the maintenance of digital technologies; how to market environmentally focused enterprises and organizations, as well as the environmental goods, works, and services that they provide; the greening of consumer preferences; and the emergence and development of a green economy and green investment and financial instruments designed to support greener industrial development and agricultural projects. The proposed results will create the conditions for a systemic approach to tilting the Russian economy toward supporting new eco-businesses through an improved regulatory frameworkcurrently virtually absent in the field of environmental entrepreneurship at the national level.

The book will make it possible to identify new common points of law and economics and to define the prospects for investment in renewable energy sources, circulation of energy resources, and energy efficiency improvements to gain positive economic effects from the introduction of new eco-friendly technologies in Russia. The aim is to create conditions and incentives for energy efficiency improvements and support the energy and environmental security of the Russian Federation by balancing private and public interests in renewable energy sources (RES), circulation of energy resources and energy efficiency improvements, and to define the prospects for improvement of the Russian legislation.

To solve particular problems that have been identified in the Strategy for the scientific and technological development of the Russian Federation, it is necessary to collect empirical evidence on the current interactions between society and nature, interdisciplinary studies on the impact of sophisticated technologies in the field of renewable energy sources (RES), information on the circulation of energy resources and energy efficiency improvements on the state of the environment, the health and safety of citizens, and the current state of public and state institutions designed to contribute to environmental protection. The study of the dynamics of interactions between economic and legal institutions in the field of RES development, the circulation of energy resources, and energy efficiency improvements make it possible to formulate some specific proposals to enable the consistent expansion of RES as one of the green sectors of the economy.
