Globalization as an objective process touches all spheres of life of the world community. One of its manifestations is technological globalization (technoglobalizm), which finds its expression in the growing internationalization of technology transfer, international technological cooperation, and global exploitation of technology. In the world market of innovations there have occurred some changes that consist, first of all, in the reduction of the role of the USA and other G-7 countries as major leaders in R&D spending and an increase of the role of BRICK countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China and South Korea – according to the latest research of Intellectual Property & Science Department of Thomson Reuters Corporation) in financing scientific and technical developments, as well as some other developing countries. Five major centres of R&D concentration and development, namely the USA, the European Union member states, Japan, and a group of developing countries, China, India, South Korea (in Asia-Pacific region) and Brazil and Mexico (on the American continent) are being formed. It is possible to predict that in the near future they can come out on top by the volume of R&D investment. In conclusion, technological globalization has led the to the formation of major centers of R&D concentration - namely the United States, the European Union, Japan, and a group of developing countries, BRICK countries in particular. Leader countries are gradually losing their positions, and against this background one can observe the growth of highly competitive economies in the newly industrialized countries. Benefiting from their own competitive advantages and effective state policy in the field of stimulating foreign investment, they become global producers of new technologies.
