Abstract

The study aims to assess and predict the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of the impact of digital platforms on the internationalization of technology transfer and the knowledge economy in general. The study's theoretical basis is the methodology of integrated assessment of the functioning of the international platform Enterprise Europe Network which is a component of the macroeconomic system in its classical sense. The multifactor analysis provides a predictive assessment of the role of digital platforms in the knowledge economy's internationalization process and outlines typical scenarios for the formation of an innovative paradigm for managing the internationalization of technology transfer. The integral value of the index of the impact of digital platforms on the process of internationalization of the knowledge economy was obtained, which allowed the separation of an innovation cluster to enhance technology transfer in three countries: Great Britain, Poland and Ukraine, i.e., the countries with high correlations of knowledge economy activation. The binary influence of the Covid-19 pandemic on the development of high-tech solutions in the knowledge economy is proven.
