Abstract

Introduction. Digital industries are significantlyahead of traditional sectors of the economy in terms of growth and capitalization. Each state is trying to create favorable conditions for the promotion and development of new industries as a factor in a highly efficient, competitive innovation economy.
Problem. One of the steps in the development of the digital economy in the country is the proper legal support of investment projects in this area.
The aim of the article is to identify and comprehend the content of the legal regime of Action City in the context of promoting investment activities in the digital economy.
Methods. The set of general scientific and special methods of scientific research is chosen as the methodological basis: dialectical, system-functional, comparative-legal.
Results. The definition of the legal regime of Action City in the Law of Ukraine «On Stimulating the Development of the Digital Economy in Ukraine»is narrowed and limits its effect only to legal norms that define the rights and obligations related to the residence of Action City. Some of the general principles on which the legal regime of Action City is based contradict other legal norms of domestic law. Positive in the context of investment promotion are the provisions on self-government of residents of Action City, as well as the application of a special tax regime. The relationship between an Action City resident and an employee may be formalized by a special gig contract that is not an employment contract.
Conclusions. The law creates stimulating and encouraging conditions for attracting investments in technology and innovation, but some of its provisions need to be improved.
