Subject. The relationship between the structural transformation of innovation infrastructure and the dynamics of entrepreneurial trajectories of technological start-ups, as well as the institutional conditions for the formation of sustainable models for the development of technological projects.
Objectives. To determine how a change in the configuration of innovation infrastructure affects the nature of entrepreneurial trajectories of startups, as well as to identify key institutional constraints that hinder the transition from quantitative expansion of infrastructure to improving the effectiveness of technological entrepreneurship.
Methods. Methods of systems and comparative analyses, as well as logical typologization of entrepreneurial trajectories were used. The empirical research base is based on the generalization of the results of domestic research on innovation infrastructure, startup ecosystems, university entrepreneurship, acceleration programs and venture investment.
Results. It is shown that the transformation of the innovation infrastructure is expressed not only in the growth of the number of support institutions, but also in the change of their functional specialization, interrelationships and role at various stages of startup development. The typology of entrepreneurial trajectories of technological startups is substantiated and the relationship between the type of trajectory and the configuration of the innovation infrastructure is revealed. The institutional gaps that arise when support tools are inconsistent at various stages of the project life cycle are highlighted. It is noted that the greatest losses of projects occur during the transition from the prototype to the market and at the stage of attracting growth capital.
Conclusions. The sustainability of entrepreneurial trajectories is determined by the degree of consistency of infrastructural support contours. In order to increase the effectiveness of technological entrepreneurship, it is advisable to move from "object-based" infrastructure expansion to the formation of a coordinated startup support system that ensures the continuity of the project's movement from idea to commercialization and scaling.
