Fixed capital reproduction as the basis for the technological potential of enterprises in modern economy

Introduction. Reproduction of fixed capital is a key element determining the technological potential of enterprises in modern economy. The purpose of the work is to identify the place of fixed capital in the formation and increase of the technological potential of enterprises in modern economy. Theoretical analysis. The process of fixed capital reproduction includes the renewal and modernization of equipment, which allows enterprises to introduce new technologies and increase production efficiency. Reproduction of fixed capital is the basis for the formation and development of enterprises’ technological potential in modern economy. However, there is need to accelerate the pace of industrial enterprises’ fixed capital reproduction to increase the technological potential of the country and form a self-sufficient national economy. Empirical analysis. In the process of writing the work, a system analysis was used to identify the factors and interests of entities that contribute to an increase in the technological potential of industrial enterprises in the country. The use of the historical research method made it possible to determine the evolution of the understanding of the term “technological potential”. Analysis of statistics showed the current state of reproduction of fixed capital of industrial enterprises. Results. The analysis of the theory showed the importance of integrating environmental and social aspects into technological potential, which leads to the development of the sustainable technologies and innovations concept. The concept of open innovation emphasizes the importance of cooperation between various economic entities, such as industrial enterprises, scientific and educational institutions, government agencies and financial organizations, to achieve maximum technological potential. The growth of technological potential is impossible without coordinating the interests of all participants, as well as the presence of a system that promotes the development of each of them and an increase in national wealth as a whole. Government structures serve as the basis for the development of the country’s technological potential. Stimulation of this development occurs through the implementation of industrial and innovation policies. It was found that under the conditions of accelerated primary reproduction, outstripping the disposal of fixed capital, the technological potential of industrial enterprises in the country increases.
