Abstract:

In industrial sectors, digital economy is implemented within "Industry 4.0" concept, which is an element of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Digital economy grows rapidly in Russia: according to the report of the World Economic Forum, in terms of availability, use and influence on economy and public relations of respective technologies, our country belongs to 30 % of the most advanced countries. Digital economy programs adopted around the world refer to digitalization of conventional industries as one of key indicators. As regards manufacturing sectors, their digitalization is substantially defined by the Industrial Internet of Things and level of its use. Many players – industrial and telecommunication companies, equipment suppliers, and also new special associations and unions, are interested in development and introduction of these technologies. The article describes purposes, models and algorithms of digital laboratory creation within the national innovative digital ecosystem. The frontier of organizational development of digital transformation processes is creation of a laboratory which will allow carrying out analysis, assessment and engineering of existing processes at manufacturing enterprises from the perspective of digitalization, performance, project orientation and efficiency. The analysis of international and Russian experience of creation of similar laboratories within a national innovative digital ecosystem has been carried out. Digital laboratory speeds up creation of new innovative products and services for business growth and successful competition in Russian and international markets: it is possible not only to imagine business future in 10-20 years, but also to simulate it: to create prototypes of digital products, test them, check their future work and refine them, if necessary
