FOREIGN EXPERIENCE IN MANAGING INNOVATIVE DEVELOPMENT OF THE TOURISM INDUSTRY

Abstract

In the context of global competition, the introduction of innovations for economic sectors is a priority. This is due to the fact that the innovative direction ensures high intensity of economic development. Managing the innovative development of the tourism industry is characterized by a number of difficulties, in particular, problems of resource provision and organizational and managerial nature, the lack of management tools during the implementation of programs and projects for the development of this industry, etc. Although the tourism industry is not one of the priority areas in terms of innovative development, it is the initiator of the introduction of various innovations. However, there is a low level of coordination between government authorities, tourism business, science and the local community. The problem of managing the innovative development of the tourism industry in Kazakhstan is a relevant, but currently insufficiently studied area. Therefore, this research topic requires deep theoretical research and comprehensive analysis, scientifically based methodological and practical recommendations.
