The global transformations that have taken place, on the one hand, have led to an increase in business requirements due to the development of the pandemic. On the other hand, the expectations of the state authorities for investment and innovation activity of business have increased due to tightening sanctions pressure. Together, this ensured increased attention of the authorities to assessing the state of the business and investment environment in the regions, which was reflected in the development of the methodology of the National Investment Rating and the inclusion of new indicators in the rating. The paper analyzes the dynamics of the development of the innovation and business environment in the regions of Russia, discusses best practices, and provides a number of recommendations for improving and developing the capabilities of the regions.
