Abstract:
The article evaluates current trends in the development of
science and innovation in Kazakhstan. Analysis of scientific and
innovation activities in Kazakhstan show that among the main sources of
financing science there are almost no business representatives. An
assessment of the current state of the national innovation system
demonstrates that with the existing system of financing science in
Kazakhstan there is no possibility to increase the costs of research and
development. The overall reduction in domestic R&D expenditures over
the period analyzed had the most negative impact on the financing of basic
research. The results of the study show the need to revise some of the value
settings for building a national innovation system in Kazakhstan.
