The paper examines the processes of harmonization of intellectual and innovative activities with the priorities of achieving ecologically balanced development. It is found that there is an intellectual convergence of regional development in Ukraine and the growth of innovation output in initially less intellectualized regions is faster, than in initially more intellectualized regions (in our case, regions with higher values of innovation output, thousand UAH). Increasing the rate of output of innovative products in the initially inactive regions is a factor in equalizing regional development and increasing the stability of the entire economic system. It is noted that intellectual convergence is a factor that will help balance both the economic component of regional development and environmental. Intellectual convergence and increasing the level of intellectualization of production and consumption is the basis for further environmentally sustainable development of the national economy as a whole. The paper notes that with regard to human capital, for long-term sustainable development it is necessary to ensure its alignment in the educational and intellectual component. All economic agents must have universally recognized human moral qualities and demonstrate environmental awareness in the processes of production and consumption. The article notes that the increase in the rate of output of innovative products in the initially inactive regions is a factor in equalizing regional development and increasing the stability of the entire economic system. However, one should not overestimate the success of the national economic system in this type of economic activity, as hostilities in eastern Ukraine have undermined the innovative potential of Ukraine's industrial regions. It is here that more research will be needed in the future to see whether the less innovative regions initially managed to cover the losses on the production of innovative products that were lost by the country's industrial regions.
