development (TPDs), based on cost-effective integration with the APR countries. The data presented indicate that after the first years of the implementation of these projects within the framework of the adopted Federal laws: № 473-FZ, № 212-FZ, the created preferential
regimes significantly increased the investment attractiveness of almost all Far Eastern regions with the intensification of the formation of a large number of new enterprises of various industry specializations with their general orientation towards the production of hightech

the number of jobs created in the region, which made it possible to draw a conclusion about the outlined innovative shift in the development of the Far East under the influence of TPDs.
