Abstract

Implementation of a «smart» city elements is a serious challenge for all cities of Ukraine, as the competitiveness of cities will determine their development or stagnation in the future. With a purpose to addressing the transformation of cities into «smart» cities, development strategies and new institutions are set up to initiate and transform various elements of the city’s ecosystems in accordance with the challenges of today.An analysis of the best practices of the«smart» cities of the European Union, not only the practical aspect but also the theoretical principles used by the city leaders in the region to form effective innovative ecosystems, is relevant not only for scientists but also for employees of regional development agencies of Ukraine.The purpose of the article is to review the best practices of a higher education institutions participation in regional innovative ecosystems.The article gives an overview of theoretical principles for the formation of effective innovative ecosystems and the necessary actions of state regulators, as well as local self-government bodies.Also, reviewed regulatory acts on the creation of innovative ecosystems and«smart» cities in the European Union.
