초록

기업 간 기술제휴 성공요인으로 적합한 기술제휴 파트너 선정이 중요함에도 불구하고, 그간 기술제휴 파트너 선정기준 및 성과에 영향을 미치는 선정기준에 대한 연구는 미흡하였다. 이에 본 연구는 마케팅, 국제, 유통, 생산 제휴 등과 같은 일반적 제휴에 관한 파트너 선정 기준의 선행연구를 바탕으로 기술제휴 파트너 선정 기준을 도출하고, AHP 기법을 활용하여 총 12명의 국내 벤처기업의 기술제휴 담당자를 대상으로 기술제휴 파트너 선정기준의 중요도를 도출하였다. 또한, 총 215개 벤처기업 기술제휴 담당자에 대한 인식조사를 통해 기술제휴 파트너 선정기준과 기술제휴 성과와의 관계를 분석하여 제시하였다. 연구 결과 4가지 선정 기준인 과업기준, 파트너기준, 학습기준, 위험기준 및 14개의 세부 항목이 도출되었으며, 기술제휴 파트너 선정기준에 대한 상대적 중요도는 위험기준, 학습기준, 파트너기준, 과업기준 순으로 나타났다. 또한, 기술제휴 파트너 선정기준과 성과와의 관계는 파트너기준과 과업기준이 기술제휴 성과에 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 조절변수로 포함한 기업규모, 이전제휴관계, 제휴 경험, 국적은 조절효과가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 마지막으로 연구결과와 시사점 및 향후 연구방향에 대해 논의하였다.

Although the impact of technological partner selection on the success of technological alliance is critical, little attention has been paid to the area of technological alliance partner selection criteria and the relationship between partner selection criteria and success factors of alliance. This study bridges this gap by understanding previous studies of general alliance partner selection criteria such as marketing, international, logistics and production alliances. I drew technological alliance partner selection criteria using AHP method with 12 experts who are currently in charge of technological alliance activities at Korean Venture Companies. This study found 4 criteria such as 'task-related', 'partner-related', 'learning-related', 'risk-related' criteria with 14 items and the relative importance of technological alliance partner selection showed as follows: 'risk-related', 'learning-related', 'partner-related', 'task-related' criteria. In order to test the relationship between technological partner selection criteria and performance, I used 215 survey data of Korean Venture Companies. The results showed that 'partner-related' and 'task-related' criteria had strong positive impacts on the success of technological alliance. Further, I put 4 moderating variables into the study model in order to see their moderating effects. However, no moderating variable showed significant effects. In conclusion section, I discussed the findings and implications of this study and directions for future studies.
