The article reveals the expediency of the transformation of gas stations into AGCNS on the example of the Republic of Tatarstan. The trend towards an increase in the number of vehicles requiring the expansion of gas station operations by providing gas installations and related gas equipment is explained. The composition of the gas infrastructure necessary to expand the activities of the gas station has been determined. The main key components of the expediency of expanding the number of CNG stations both in the central districts of Kazan and in the outskirts of the city and access roads are identified. The technical characteristics of the DTRA-NGX gas dehumidifier are provided as the most in-demand model in the gas equipment system in relation to a potential CNG station in one of the central districts of Kazan and on the outskirts, depending on the traffic flow. The characteristics of the compressor, which is suitable for the DTRA-NGX dehumidifier, taking into account the specifics of performance, have been determined. Based on the average investment volumes in CNG stations, economic indicators for one gas station were determined and key parameters were identified that determine the financial efficiency of CNG stations during the planned payback period. Due to these indicators and against the background of the new M-12 highway, the potential for a significant reduction in the payback period of the investment project under consideration has been identified.

The competitiveness of industry is an essential factor and condition for the economic development of the Russian Federation. The work characterizes the state of development of Russian industrial production in the context of sanctions pressure, identifies the main factors hindering the development of this industry in recent years, such as the severance of cooperative ties, restriction of the activities of most foreign companies in Russia, import dependence, low level of digital infrastructure, local implementation of technologies, technological unemployment, lack of highly qualified employees, low level of automation and innovation activity, poor technology uptake, low level of digital literacy of specialists and management personnel in the industrial sector, insufficient financial resources for the development of the industry, underdeveloped social responsibility of companies, etc. With the help statistical indicators, the dynamics of the development of regional industrial production were analyzed, and the directions for the development of this sector were determined. It has been proven that, despite a number of destructive factors, the total volume of industrial production in Russia has increased over the past five years. The industry of the Ulyanovsk region demonstrates similar dynamics. Among the key sectors for increasing the level of competitiveness of the region's industrial sector, one can highlight the development of high-tech industries, technical re-equipment, and growth in labor productivity.

The article is devoted to the study of the possibilities of managing the financial stability of Russian business entities in modern conditions of an unstable business environment. The purpose of the article is to study methods for managing the prerequisites for the occurrence of financial insolvency to manage the financial stability of an economic entity in an unstable business environment. The idea is relevant, since external economic restrictions, high inflation, rapid changes in exchange rates, sales markets, and restructuring of supply chains have a direct impact on the activities of modern Russian business entities. The strategic goal of an economic entity is the introduction of an integrated system of financial and non-financial indicators that characterize the resources it has for successful functioning in an unstable economic environment. There are many models for diagnosing insolvency and insolvency of business entities. However, there is no single approach to selecting and adapting models for diagnosing the financial insolvency of business entities. Financial stability management is largely implemented taking into account the specifics of various sectors of the economy. The article provides a classification of the main areas of financial stability management for each type of anti-crisis management, a management system, levels of financial stability management, and proposes for consideration an emphasis on identifying the crisis field of an economic entity.

The paper discusses issues related to the motivation of inventive activity in higher education. To identify the main motives of inventive activity, a survey was conducted among scientists of Kazan State University. The survey was attended by 25 respondents from among the most inventively active scientists of the university institutes with a larger number of patents for inventions. During the period from 2018 to 2022, the Institute of Fundamental Medicine and Biology, the Institute of Geology and Oil and Gas Technologies, the Engineering Institute and the Institute of Physics showed the greatest inventive activity. It is in these areas of science that fundamental and applied research and development are carried out, which are identified at the university as priority and promising. The results of the survey showed that among the factors contributing to inventive activity, the main one is internal motivation (70,8 % of respondents’ responses), which includes, among other things, material incentives for inventors (64 %) and determined the respondents’ desire to provide a material and legal basis for stimulating (moral and material) the author – creator of the intellectual property object (52 %). Factors hindering creative activity were named: lack of time for inventive activity (47,8 %); non-implementation of developments (30,4 % of respondents); problems related to the organization of business, its financing and marketing (all 32 %).
