  6. Data on Transition to STS Companies may use the Simplified Taxation System. As of June 8, 2011, 223 entities submitted information on transition to STS, including: - 41 entities that did not confirm transition to STS, and - 4 entities that are not recorded in the Register (mistakes made by tax inspectorates).

  7. Data on Companies as of June 8, 2011 346out of973companies ( 35.56%) meet the requirements of FZ-217 and may be, therefore, included in the Register of Notifications on Established Companies provided they comply with the STS provision formulated in FZ-272, dated October 16, 2010. The sample is structured using the selected criteria of compliance with FZ-217, dated August 2, 2009: 1. Completeness of information on companies as required by MOES Executive Order # 718, dated December, 2009. 2. Results of the review by Rospatent. 3. Compliance with legislation (Civil Code, Part 4; Federal Law on LLC; Federal Law on Registration of Legal Entities; …) 4. Inclusion in the Register of Notifications on Established Companies provided they meet the STS provision formulated in: FZ-310, dated November 27, 2010; FZ-272, dated October 16, 2010; and Tax Code, Art. 346.

  8. Companies’ Legal Status 950 out of 973entities (97.6%) are established as limited liability companies while 23 entities (2.4%) have the status of closed joint stock companies.

  9. Companies’ Conformity with National Science /Technology Development Priorities(one of five priorities under Federal Law # 244, dated September 28, 2010)

  10. Use of Critical Technologiesby Companies

  11. Company Establishment and Operation Monitoring A survey conducted in December 2010 (244 questionnaires completed by companies) and studies on the topic carried out by the MOES Center for Science Research and Statistics for 1.5 years helped identify the key operation issues facing companies established under FZ-217. The output included a list of issues requiring further study and resolution (Table 4).

  13. The Table summarizes the results of companies’ business activity monitoring as of December 1, 2010 (based on responses by 244 companies)

  14. Difficulties of Company Establishment by Federal Universities and Federal Governmental Autonomous Education Institutions Pursuant to FZ-217, dated August 2, 2009, the right to establish companies shall vest in budget-financed research and education institutions. A number of large HEIs (Siberian Federal University, Southern Federal University,…) enjoy the status of autonomous institutions (AI). However, all national research and federal universities have been directed to become autonomous institutions. Pursuant to the Federal Law on Autonomous Institutions (# 174-FZ, dated November 3,  2006), the latter may establish companies without meeting the provisions of Federal Law # 217 which does not apply to them as it regulates only budget-financed institutions. Therefore, companies founded by HEIs after they acquired the AI status formally are not covered by the registration system and are not eligible for any type of program support or finance designed only for companies established under FZ-217. The federal universities acquired the AI status in June 2010. The federal university performance assessment indicators include the number of small innovative companies established by HEIs pursuant to FZ-217. HEIs do establish such companies but they act outside the scope of FZ-217, and the companies cannot be formally taken into account under the above criterion. In this case, there is evident inconsistency between the substance and form that may be eliminated via amendment of Federal Law # 217: the words “budget-financed” shall be replaced by the words “federally owned” or “governmental” or “budget-financed and autonomous”.
