The economic aspects of strategic changes at the national economy level are identified and analysed, considering the features of the country’s innovation, investment, and environmental policies, the productivity of innovations themselves, and the involvement of businesses in the innovation process. An analysis of the level of development of innovation factors that influence the provision of strategic changes in the sectors of the national economy of the studied countries is presented.
