FORMS OF INTERACTION BETWEEN SMALL ENTERPRISES AND LARGE BUSINESSES AND GOVERNMENT SUPPORT FOR THIS INTERACTION

This article discusses the topic of interaction between small and large enterprises. Their interaction is based on mutually beneficial cooperation and is possible in various forms. But usually small businesses are more interested in such interaction. And since small business plays an important economic and social role in any country, it is important for government authorities not only to support small business in principle, but also to stimulate interaction between small and large enterprises. In the article, various forms (methods) of interaction are considered from the point of view of the relevance of their additional government stimulation. It has been established that there are forms of interaction that do not require additional government intervention (outsourcing and franchising); there are those where it is relatively effectively stimulated by the current legal regulation (subcontracting); There are those where, despite a general negative background, some positive experience has been accumulated (industry regional clusters). It is also proposed to single out “interaction within the framework of the implementation of socially significant projects” as a new form of interaction (an example of additional gasification of regions is considered).
