Management of innovation processes is one of the functions of local governments and, therefore, they should be the initiators and moderators of communication between research organizations and enterprises. The program formation of agglomeration innovative development involves the creation of promoting innovation body, which allows to achieve the maximum involvement degree of all the participants in the innovation process. The article is devoted to the research of urban agglomeration innovative development, the need to create a special body or center for innovation, which will form a set and interconnected, and will be integrated into the urban agglomeration and carry out innovation and technological activities as part of research and production infrastructure. The article develops a method for predicting the effectiveness of the advancement of this body through the digital space using trend models. It is expected to receive three forecasts: optimistic, realistic and pessimistic. This will accelerate the establishment of links between the players of the regional innovation market and contribute to a qualitative change in the spatial and functional structure of urban agglomerations. The development of information and communication technologies allows to create effective systems that will stimulate the agglomerations innovative development . Therefore, the communicative activities of regional governments should be carried out through the use of information and communication technologies. Thus, the urgency of developing a methodology for assessing the increase of the innovative component of agglomeration economic development is due to the low percentage of implementation research results, low science-intensive gross value added in the Ukrainian regions, the possibility of using information and communication technologies. Increasing the number of targeted visits will simplify and speed up the process of establishing links between innovation market players at the agglomeration spatial level in both the short and long term
