Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This paper presents economic analysis of the dynamics and current state of the innovation potential of small and medium-sized enterprises of the Republic of Kazakhstan in the following areas and components: the resource component of the innovation potential (production, financial, HR, R&D and technical resources) and the efficiency component of the innovation potential (a number of innovative SMEs and the volume of their innovative products). For this analysis, the authors use the official statistics of the Committee on Statistics of the Ministry of National Economy of the Republic of Kazakhstan for the period of 2007 to 2017. The presented approach can be applied for comparative analysis, identifying the causes, factors and trends in the development of innovation potential of other developing economies.
