Journal Title: Регіональна Економіка - Year 2016, Vol 80, Issue 2

Abstract

Under the conditions of today’s global economic integration and institutional transformation the processes of metropolisation are the most important processes of spatial development. Formation and development of metropolises as powerful poles of economic growth, the spread of their influence on the socio-economic development of the surrounding areas, as well as their inclusion into the network of supranational social, financial, and institutional linkages are essential prerequisites to building reasonable and effective mechanisms for spatial policy of regions’ development. It is argued that synergy interaction and concentration of social development potentials (financial, economic, innovative, informational, educational, cultural) in the metropolitan cities provides connectivity of regions with global communications and processes through the transfer of metropolises development impetus arising from international communicational, organizational and informational links onto the surrounding area and the transformation of its economic structure. Development of powerful metropolitan cities is a development catalyst of the advanced forms of business spatial organization and organization of business activities, such as network structure, innovative clusters, technology parks, industrial parks, business incubators, online businesses, holding companies, multinationals and so on. It is argued that the development of business spatial organization and selection of its best forms is one of the main factors of regional economy competitiveness, as it helps the localization of business activity, the formation of «points of growth», the development of interregional and intraregional cooperation and the activation of local entrepreneurship.
