Abstract—This paper considers the particular issues associated with expert assessment in the process of fore-
casting and decision making in the innovation sector. The authors introduce the concept of a “forum,” which
they understand as a specific institution designed to gain competent expert knowledge while discussing and
making publicly relevant managerial decisions. The forum’s tasks are discussed in the context of the space
activities in Russia. The authors also formulate the main requirements for the organization of the forum and
expert discussion in the process of prognostication and decision making.
