Summary/Abstract: Under the influence of globalisation and technological innovation, the focus of economic development at a national and regional level is on increasing competitiveness. According to studies by the Organisation for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), global value chains (GVCs) create significant economic opportunities for companies and for the regions in which they operate. The paper presents the results of a Delphi survey on the views of experts on the opportunities, risks, and challenges of enterprise participation in GVCs for regional development. The presented results are based on analyses from Project „Development and implementation of a model for assessing the innovation potential of global value chains as a basis for increasing regional competitiveness” financed by the National Science Fund, contract No КП-06-Н55/8 from 16.11.2021.
