As the global patent collection is widening, the complexity of patent documents search for assessing technique novelty, i. e. revealing the relevant art or prior art from public patent data, is increasing, too. Searching for this information, vast and complex, is challenging. Research findings evidence on the increasing scale of NLP use for more accurate and integrated patent search. Despite many achievements, the automated patent search system for appropriate accuracy and completeness has not been introduced. The author argues that development of new effective approaches to designing these systems is significantly limited due to the lack of the datasets ready for educating and testing. The automated acquisition of datasets of arbitrary configuration (with consideration for various selection criteria, i. e. documents by patent agency/agencies; all published documents for a limited period of time: document types; patent classification classes, etc.) would enable to eliminate limitations and build the datasets meeting the needs and goals set up by the systems designers. The author proposes new approaches to dataset acquisition, testing of automated art patent search systems, and assessment of these systems.

The relevance of the topic is due to the strengthening of the Asian vector of Russian interaction. In the context of increasing cross-country interaction, when building ESG policy, it is important to determine the strategy and tactics of ESG-interaction, points of contact and factors for further growth, which will be the purpose of this work. The theoretical basis was the work of domestic and foreign authors. This study uses not only general methods of dialectical cognition, logical analysis and synthesis, but also methods of sociological research in the form of surveys and interviews. The expert opinion of experts, including one of the author, who has direct experience in trade cooperation with the People’s Republic of China, will allow the full coverage of the entire range of problems on the designated topic.The results of the study showed a commonality in the strategy of socio-economic development and innovative growth of the two countries. Tactically, the features of the implementation of the ESG policy are highlighted, which are the basis for the further growth of ESG cooperation between Russia and China. Specific projects are presented, and prospects for cooperation are outlined.The scientific novelty consists in finding the specificity and commonality of ESG interests of the two countries in the process of building ESG policy, which will be valuable for individual researchers and the scientific community. Assessing the prospects for further growth points, this will make it possible to take into account ESG tactics and adjust strategies for further interaction. This is certainly important for businesses and decision makers in the field of ESG and sustainable development. The indicated practical significance is not limited to these areas.

The article provides information regarding patenting statistics in the field of compositions and methods of production of redispersible polymer powders. It is demonstrated that a patent is primarily a profit-making tool, and patent research is a mechanism for making long-term forecasts in a technological niche. The main mistakes of Russian patent holders when protecting their developments are discussed and ways to prevent them are proposed. Comparative examples of claim writing are offered, and issues of comprehensive patent protection are also discussed.

Introduction. Currently, a unified methodological concept for assessing the processes of intellectual property development at the regional level has not been formed. The predominant number of methods assessing the development of the sphere are based on the rating assessment of integral indicators. The methodology of strategic mapping is also be­ing applied. This paper proposes a methodological approach to assess­ing the maturity of intellectual property management processes based on the "IP portfolio of the region" model. In the practice of modern man­agement, the portfolio method is used to collect system reflection on the evaluated activity and present its results. In the field of intellectual property, this approach is successfully applied in the corporate prac­tice of RID management. For the purposes of managing the intellectual property sphere at the regional level, this method can be considered as innovative. Methods. The research methodology was based on the ap­plication of general scientific methods, such as: analysis and synthesis, induction and deduction, construction and verification of hypotheses, comparison, modeling. Empirical data were processed using economet­ric models. Logical means of cognition were used in the formulation of conclusions. Results and Discussion. The developed methodological approach makes it possible to assess the maturity of intellectual prop­erty management processes at the level of the subject of the Russian Federation. The subject matter of the objects of the "IP portfolio of the region" includes: objects of patent rights, means of individualization, computer programs, databases. The model is based on a system of co­efficient-type indicators. The scales of ranking of regions based on the estimates of the "IP portfolio of the region" model are substantiated. The source of information for calculating the values of indicators are the databases of Rospatent and Rosstat. Conclusion. The results of the study are of practical significance and can be applied in the develop­ment of intellectual property development policy at the national and regional levels.

Unsolved methodological problems of creating a single digital
 knowledge space are considered. The methodology of information space intellectualization is presented as one of the priority trends of modern information development. The characteristics of the information infrastructure of
 the digital economy are defined: intellectual type of scientific knowledge storage, visibility. Actual theoretical problems that require operational solutions
 in the context of designing a single digital space of scientific knowledge are
 formulated. Solutions to the problems of selecting objects of information
 modeling and reflection, dialectics of individual and system objects in the
 structure of a single digital space of scientific knowledge, industry-specific
 and differentiated approaches to the design of a single digital space of scientific knowledge are proposed. Organizational models of the unified digital
 space of scientific knowledge are considered. The idea of a single digital space
 of scientific knowledge is considered through the prism of the experience of
 organizing inter-organizational projects in the Russian information market.

Si la propriété industrielle s’est imposée comme un élément indispensable à toute démarche d’innovation, elle est encore trop méconnue : y remédier est l’un des objectifs de l’écosystème des dispositifs de formations en propriété industrielle, animé par l’INPI. La formation des professionnels a longtemps été réservée à des juristes spécialisés, avant de voir progressivement son champ d’action s’élargir et concerner aujourd’hui des métiers des plus variés : des chercheurs, bien sûr, mais également des acheteurs, des managers, des spécialistes du marketing , des financiers, des professionnels des ressources humaines… Cette transformation a eu un impact à la fois sur les contenus enseignés et sur la pédagogie.

With the acceleration of technological development and the digital transformation of economies, the impact of intellectual property on economic growth will increase. The article shows that the forms and means of legal protection and use of intellectual property will evolve in line with the opportunities that will be provided by the infrastructure (production, fixation, management, tracking and protection of intellectual property rights) in this area. In Russia, the “digitalization” of legal protection and use of intellectual property rights will make it possible to form public-private platforms for rights management, which will create additional opportunities for authors to effectively manage their rights. This will attract investors to the non-raw-material sector of the economy and may become an important driver for the development of the digital economy in the country as a whole.

In the framework of the implementation of the import substitution policy, the Ministry of Industry and Trade issued an order No. 655 dated March 31, 2015 "On approval of the action plan on import substitution in the medical industry of the Russian Federation" according to which the share of imports in the majority of medical devices in 2015 amounted to 80–100%, but by 2020 should be reduced to 10–20%. To assess the competitiveness and export potential of Russian developments, providing technical solutions for the production of new types of crosslinking goods and wound retractors, there is performed a patent analysis of the global patent portfolio of documents created over the last 20 years. The data obtained does not allow to characterize scientific and technological backlog of the Russian Federation in the field of wound retractor production and crosslinking products as competitive.
