The study examines the key vectors of economic intensification of the formation of support complexes for the regions of the Arctic zone of the Russian Federation. In the high latitudes of the country, Russian scientists conduct research in a wide range of scientific areas related to the study of the climatic state of the Arctic, the availability of natural resources, changes in the natural landscape, the application of high-tech methods in the industrial production of strategic products and materials. Climatic and environmental components are the main focus of Arctic scientific research, ensuring the sustainable development of the Far North regions. An important role is given to international cooperation within the framework of the Arctic Council, which is responsible for implementing timely decisions to promote situational approaches related to rapid climate change and other urgent tasks in the Arctic. The study presents newly created industrial facilities in the areas of large open deposits, the construction of new ports and port infrastructure, implemented investment projects in the Arctic agglomerations, on the basis of which it is possible to conclude that the system of state support has been optimized and that businesses are ready to assist in the development of existing and promising projects. It is specified that the economic potential of natural resources and the degree of their use depend on the effectiveness of the applied measures of technological and regulatory nature. The role of the cities of the Far North as large industrial and energy centers with a diversified economy, developed urban environment, high-quality medical care and decent educational activities, which are the basis of the supporting economic complexes of the Arctic zone of the country, is noted. The main directions for transport and logistics support, development of mineral resource centers, energy and infrastructure support are presented in order to form the support economic complexes of the Arctic region of Russia.
