Abstract The study of the effectiveness of spatial innovation development is a highly topical issue today due to the increased impact of innovation on economic growth. In order to assess the structural dynamics of regional innovative development, an analysis of the innovation indicators for Russian regions in 2010–2018 was carried out. Cluster analysis and the correlation-regression method were used to assess the structural changes in the innovative development of Russian regions. The analysis demonstrates an increased number of entities in the innovative leading region cluster by 2018, which can be considered as a positive result of innovation policy and the growth in indicators of regional innovative development. The research results can be used to develop regional innovative strategies and decision making for the further development of innovative activities.
