BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVES. The strategy of innovation development in Ukraine envisages the creation of innovative ecosystem of higher education institutions. Analysis of the current state of interaction between science, business and the state in Ukraine shows that most of the technologies and developments created as a result of scientific and technical activities of higher education institutions have not yet been implemented in the real economy. Communication interaction between representatives of higher school and enterprises involves the initiation of the innovation ecosystem. Practical implementation of conceptual model of Hackathon-ecosystem of technology transfer in higher education institution will allow to move to a new level of innovative development of higher education institution.

METHODS. The study used: the DFD method for constructing a context diagram and diagram 1 level of functioning of the Hackathon ecosystem of technology transfer in higher education institution; information and technological approaches to the project management of HETT creation in the university to ensure effective management of project data flow; qualitative and operational communication between the project stakeholders.

FINDINGS. The developed conceptual model of Hackathon-ecosystem of technology transfer in higher education institutions allows to take into account the specifics of functioning of higher education. The proposed block diagram of the initialization project of the creation of the Hackathon-ecosystem of technology transfer consists of 7 stages, which allows to take into account the specifics of the university. The optimal composition of stakeholders of the Hackathon-ecosystem of technology transfer in higher education institutions is defined: initiator, manager, team, customer, curator, owner, competitors, sponsor, authorities, community groups, consumers, organizations, suppliers and contractors.

CONCLUSION. Practical implementation of the developed conceptual model of Hackathon-ecosystem of technology transfer in higher education institutions allows to generate ideas in accordance with market requirements and implement the most effective; to determine the needs and interests in establishing cooperation between representatives of higher education and business; to determine the compliance of the prototypes created with the needs of stakeholders and will provide feedback regarding the functioning of Hackathon-ecosystem of technology transfer.
