Роль китайских инвестиций в нефтегазовом секторе в развитии экономики Западного Казахстана

Предпосылки исследования: Западный Казахстан, обладающий природными ресурсами, культурным наследием, туристическими курортами и геополитическими преимуществами, играет важную роль в экономическом развитии Казахстана. Предпринимательство рассматривается как один из важнейших факторов, способствующих экономическому росту и развитию.

Цель исследования: Данное исследование направлено на изучение роли предпринимательства с китайскими инвестициями в нефтегазовом секторе в стимулировании региональной экономики Западного Казахстана и, следовательно, в дальнейшем содействии развитию национальной экономики.

Методология: В исследовании применяется метод качественного вторичного анализа, использующий существующие данные для изучения взаимосвязи между предпринимательством, ориентированным на возможности и инновации, и экономическим ростом в Западном Казахстане.

Результаты: Исследование показывает, что китайское предпринимательство в нефтегазовом секторе является важной движущей силой регионального экономического роста. Предложенная модель роста может быть применена как парадигма экономического развития и в других секторах бизнеса Казахстана.

Оригинальность/ценность исследования: Разработана модель роста, объясняющая, каким образом предпринимательство с китайскими инвестициями в определённом секторе и регионе способствует развитию местной экономики. Интегрированная в статье модель экономической оценки представляет собой дополнительный вклад в общее исследование экономического роста.
