Personnel component of the regions innovation infrastructure as a driver for the development of smart technologies

The processes of digitalization and development ofsmart technologies todayset a new paradigm for the development ofeconomyand societyas a whole. From year to year, the market capitalization ofcompanies in the field of digital and smart technologies is growing, which reflects the rapid development of this sphere, but in Russia, the pace of development of the digital sphere is lower than in the leading countries in this area, one of the reasons for the lag is insufficient staffing and brain drain. The purpose of the article is to consider the possibilityof developing personnel for digital and smart technologies using the personnel component of the regional innovation infrastructure. As a result of studying the experience of Krasnoyarsk krai, it is concluded that the regional law does not set tasks for the development of the regions human resources infrastructure, although the region has a basis for such development and the human resources component of the innovation infrastructure can act as a driver for the development of smart and digital technologies. However, this requires building a model of the network interaction between postgraduate, higher, secondary, general and additional education, as well as direct coordination with regional authorities and regional innovation infrastructure areas of training that are relevant to development in the region. In addition, coordination may consist in generating demand from the business communityfor personnel in the field of smart and digital technologies.
