ABSTRACT:

This article examines the role of human capital and technological development in the innovative economy based on a comprehensive scientific approach. The study substantiates, both theoretically and empirically, the importance of human capital in the transformation of economic systems under globalization, particularly in the transition from an industrial economy to an innovative and digital economy. The paper analyzes the formation and development stages of human capital theory based on the views of representatives of classical economic schools and modern economists. Furthermore, it explores the interrelationship between human capital and technological progress within the framework of innovation development concepts, particularly endogenous economic growth theory. Based on the research findings, scientific and practical recommendations have been developed aimed at modernizing the education system, enhancing digital competencies, supporting r esearch activities, and strengthening public-private partnerships.
