Among the main problems were highlighted such issues as: coherence of science and production, poor infrastructure, necessary for enterprises engaged in the development of innovative solutions, low qualification ofpersonnel, low demand of enterprises for the results of innovative activities. The main focus of the article is on the educational sphere, as the first stage in the development of innovative activities of the city of Sevastopol, because it is there that the students who are subsequently engaged in development are trained. Logistical and transport problems of the city were identified, both in terms of the interconnectedness of different areas of the city, and the interaction between enterprises, which slows down the development of the city.
