The article deals with topical issues of determining the priority directions of the state policy for the development of the knowledge-intensive high-tech sector of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of the Eurasian economic Union. The main purpose of the study is to recommend public policy measures in accordance with certain priority blocks that are adequate to the existing classification of subjects of the knowledge-intensive high-tech sector and the main trends in the development of indicators in the EAEU countries. The theoretical and methodological basis of this research is the identification of the subject component of the knowledge-intensive high-tech sector in order to develop adequate measures of state support. It has been established that at the present stage, the knowledge-intensive high-tech sector has become more active and includes entities that provide knowledge-intensive services, which is generally typical for developed countries, where the non-material sphere is developing dynamically. The main results of this study are aimed at developing the existing theoretical, methodological, organizational and economic aspects of the development of the high-tech sector in the EAEU countries, and in particular in the Republic of Kazakhstan. It is established that it is the state that plays the most important role in creating conditions and regulating, as well as adjusting the activities of the knowledge-intensive hightech sector. The potential and efficiency of the entire sector and each individual subject depends on the effectiveness and quality of targeted state program documents that form the basis of state policy in the field of high-tech development. Therefore, within the framework of this study, the key priorities for improving the state policy for the development of knowledge-intensive high-tech industries in Kazakhstan are formulated: legal, administrative, financial, informational and motivational. According to these priority areas, activities that create favorable conditions for the activities of subjects of the high-tech sphere to achieve productive performance are grouped. The results of the study can be used by authorized state and supranational structures to improve the state policy for the development of high-tech industries.
Keywords: knowledge-intensive high-tech sector, high-tech industries, state policy priorities, the Eurasian economic Union, Kazakhstan.
