Abstract. The article aims to substantiate enterprise architecture as a factor in the growth of a knowledge-intensive organization in the context of technological sovereignty. The study is driven by the need to strengthen Russian research universities, engineering centers and R&D units under sanctions, import substitution and growing requirements for digital independence. The methodological basis includes the concept of dynamic capabilities, enterprise architecture approaches, PEST analysis, Porter's five forces model and weighted assessment of key success factors. The empirical basis consists of open strategic documents of ITMO University, regulatory documents of the RF and academic publications on enterprise architecture, digital transformation and technological sovereignty. The scientific novelty of the study lies in a three-level conceptual model of how enterprise architecture affects the growth of a knowledge-intensive organization. The model links architecture domains, dynamic capabilities and growth outcomes. The article also proposes a five-level scale and a set of indicators of architectural maturity. Drawing on the case of ITMO University and comparing it with Russian and international universities, the article shows that achieving strategic goals requires a shift from fragmented digital solutions to an integrated architecture-driven ecosystem. The practical value of the results is that the proposed model and maturity scale can be applied when developing architectural roadmaps for universities and other knowledge-intensive organizations.
