Annotation: In the context of knowledge economy, it seems rea- sonable that the pragmatics of implementing import substitu- tion policy at the regional level from an economic point of view is transformed to the postulates of an existential civilizational strat- egy, when technological sovereignty is interpreted as a symbiosis of technological independence, including achieving technological balancing of internal and external factors of technological devel- opment, but also ensuring the basic values of the state and its citi- zens. In this regard, it is especially important to assess the innova- tive potential of regional economic systems, which are the driver of import substitution. The purpose of the study is to dynamically assess the innovative potential of regional economic systems (using the regions of the Volga Federal District as an example) based on the use of an integral indicator the Russian regional innovation index, as well as its individual components in the field of science and technology. The study includes an analysis of the comparable dynamics of the Russian regional innovation index in the regions of the Volga Federal District; an analysis of the dynamics and a descriptive description of the indicators describing the scientific potential of the region in the field of science and technology; and a modeling of the relationship between the structural components of the innovation potential in regional economic systems. It has been proven that there is uneven development of the innovation potential in the regions of the Volga Federal District. It is established that there is a high positive relationship between such indicators as the number of researchers and scientific organizations; the number of researchers and the share of R & D costs in GRP; the number of scientific organizations and the issuance of patents for inventions; the number of scientific organizations and the advanced produc- tion technologies used. The presented results of the study can be used in the development of regional strategies for import substitu- tion and achieving technological sovereignty at the national level of economic management as a whole.
