description This article argues that interaction within a circular ecosystem should be characterized by a higher degree of cooperation, ensuring the full effectiveness of the ecosystem, taking into account mutual and social effects. The scientific hypothesis of the study is to consider the infocommunication platform as an integrating basis for an effective regional circular ecosystem (CES). An infocommunication platform is understood as an integrated information system that provides the possibility of algorithmic exchange of information and values (products, resources) between a large number of entities through transactions in a common information environment, leading to eliminating transaction costs, reducing transformation costs and achieving full efficiency. The purpose of the study is to provide an analytical substantiation of this hypothesis, as well as to study the most significant aspects related to the implementation of the platform-network approach in the activities of regional CES. Research objectives: to clarify the concept of a digital information platform and to outline the boundaries of this phenomenon; to form an analytical substantiation of the thesis about the fundamental nature of information platforms in the formation and functioning of the regional CES; explore and give a critical assessment of the current situation in the implementation of digital information platforms in Russian practice; show that the implementation of digital information platforms of regional CES is associated with a large number of external effects, and thereby justify the need to use internalizing mechanisms; to determine directions for the development of mechanisms internalizing externalities that ensure the effective formation and functioning of information and communication platforms of regional CES. Based on the results of the study, the following conclusions were obtained: directions for the development of internalizing mechanisms were identified that ensure the effective formation and functioning of information and communication platforms of regional CES. It was proved that the functioning of a digital infocommunication platform, covering the entire field of the circular ecosystem, causes systemic organizational and economic changes in the direction of permanent high-level collaborations, which describes a full-fledged infocommunication basis for an effective regional CES. It has been revealed that the formation and implementation of the digital information platform of regional circular ecosystems is associated with a large number of external effects, which in turn requires the use of internalizing mechanisms, including through the participation of the public. The main promising directions for the participation of the public in the process of formation and functioning of regional CES information platforms were identified.
