description The peculiarity of the current development stage of the world economy is manifested in the growing level of internationalization in research and innovation, as well as in deepening international scientific and technological cooperation and exchange. This is especially true for Europe, where a holistic innovation system (IS) of the European Union (EU) has been formed. The integration in the EU IS is of strategic importance for Ukraine and requires appropriate scientific, practical and conceptual foundations. The article aims at presenting the strategic principles of Ukraine's integration into the EU innovation system. The peculiarities of the EU IS formation, its boundaries and main elements (participants; organizations supporting innovation; trans-European "chains" of knowledge generation and transformation, etc.) are considered. The necessity to choose the convergent vector of development for Ukraine’s national innovation system and the relevant advantages of this direction while reforming the R&D sector, supporting research and innovation are substantiated. The conceptual basis for including Ukraine’s science and technology complex in the EU IS is spelled out. It is determined that the main point here is the development of cooperation in science and technology between Ukraine and the EU in such a way that a number of principles are observed (taking into account the uniqueness of the EU IS, its advantages and disadvantages; the use of the European paradigm to support innovation, etc.). The preconditions for integration into the EU IS are identified, in particular, ensuring high-level protection of rights and intellectual property. It is also important to develop a mechanism for deepening international cooperation in science and technology between Ukraine and the EU, which should implement special measures of state support. The principle of cumulation, as well as differentiated approach, should become the grounds for stimulating cooperation. The necessity for Ukraine to participate in the EU programs is proven, and general preconditions for it are substantiated. The process of strengthening scientific and technological ties should be based on new information platforms. To stimulate international partnership, it is also advisable to create various infrastructure organizations (technology transfer centers, project expertise, training and research centers).
