Abstract

The relevance of the study has been determined by the acceleration of innovation growth, which encourages companies to use imitation strategies in response to disruptive technological changes. The study used the Cobb-Douglas production function to evaluate the effectiveness of the used production factors of Russian IT companies. A high-quality 3-cluster model of IT companies was built, as well as highly significant two-factor production functions of Cobb-Douglas, which made it possible to identify the contribution of the main factors (wage and fixed assets) to the production volume (revenue) for each cluster.
