At the present stage, the knowledge-intensive services sector is one of the key drivers of the global knowledge-based economy. Knowledge-intensive services cover a wide range of market, financial, high-tech, social and other services based on the knowledge and experience of highly qualified specialists. This type of services acts as a catalyst for innovation activities of organizations based on an organic combination of production processes, research and development activities and consumer needs.

The results of the analysis of foreign and domestic trends in the export of knowledge-intensive services allow to assert that Ukraine has a significant human resource potential, the implementation of which can provide high volumes of provision of knowledge-intensive services. The positive dynamics of development of knowledge-intensive services export by Ukraine indicates that our country has real prospects to become a successful innovation region in the near future.
