Today, the new guidelines of strategic planning for the development of Russia and its regions are increasingly determined by science and technological progress. The results of scientifc research, which deserve attention in terms of improving the scientifc, technical, and socioeconomic processes in the Northern and Arctic territorial and economic systems (in our case, the Komi Republic), are usually presented in the form of interdisciplinary projects that generate the results of studies on socioeconomic, humanitarian, and medical and biological problems as well as on the issues of preserving the biosphere and ecosystems with simultaneous development of bioresource economy, rational use of mineral and energy resources, spatial development, and creation and use of innovative technologies. The key idea of this article is implementing the new industrialization in the Komi Republic by taking into account the results of research conducted at the institutes of Komi Scientifc Centre of the Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences. The applied research of the institutes of Komi Scientifc Centre is based on fundamental studies and closely connected with the practice of development and distribution of productive forces. It is focused on implementing the new paradigm of Northern policy aimed at not only the development of mineral and energy resources for external consumers but also at improvement, sustainable development, and creation of appropriate conditions for the people who put their roots in the North. Particular attention is drawn to the reproduction of human and natural resource potentials. The sectoral structure of the economy of the republic, and most other Northern and Arctic regions, will not change dramatically in the future, but the inner content of productive forces will be different in line with the concept of resource-based innovative development.
