В статье исследуются проблемы трансфера технологий и инноваций в регионе ССАГПЗ. У стран ССАГПЗ есть успехи в привлечении высоких технологий в нефтехимическом производстве, телекоммуникационных системах, системах поддержки гражданских воздушных судов, медицинских услугах и ядерной энергетике. Но остаются проблемы, требующие усилий мирового сообщества для трансформации системы трансфера технологий и защиты интеллектуальной собственности в рамках Соглашения Всемирной торговой организации (ВТО) по торговым аспектам прав интеллектуальной собственности (ТРИПС).
The article examines the processes and problems of technology transfer to the GCC region, which unites Bahrain, Oman, Qatar, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and the UAE. The countries of this region of great strategic importance are making significant efforts to diversify the national economy through the transfer of advanced technologies within the framework of international cooperation. The article shows that there are certain successes of the GCC countries in the process of attracting and subsequent use of high technologies in the petrochemical industry, telecommunications systems, civil aircraft support systems, medical services and nuclear power. At the same time, significant problems remain in the technology transfer system in the GCC countries, as in many other developing countries, the solution of which requires efforts not only by the group of States under consideration, but also by the international community towards some transformation of the existing system of technology transfer and intellectual property protection within trips. In the article the author used the historical method, which allowed to trace the history of the socio-economic situation in the GCC and the evolution of the process of technology transfer. In addition, a comparative analysis method was used to analyze the process of technology transfer to the GCC, with the help of which the author drew conclusions about the achievements of countries in this area. The main purpose of the article is to study the current problems faced by the government and non-governmental structures of the GCC countries in the implementation of innovation policy, to identify promising areas of its formation and the role of technology transfer in this process.
