Abstract

Patent application as achievements from R&D institutions in public sector have quantitatively increased by expanding R&D investment for enhancing competitiveness but there have been few tangible outputs from the investment. From this reason, TLO(Technology Transfer&Licensing Organization) and its operation becomes more important to implement technology transfer and commercialization and to bring success in the related business. To get work done more efficiently and to improve utilizing products of the R&D in the TLO, this research is to draw domains and activities of TLO and establish its task systems by prioritizing activities. From literature reviews and expert interviews, we generated 6 work domains and 21 task items. Applying AHP analysis, we discriminated the relative importance from task items and analyzed its priority. The finding of this research can provide implications for TLO to increase work efficiency and improve its performance.

과학기술 경쟁력 확보를 위한 R&D 투자 확대로 국내 공공연구기관의 특허출원 성과는 양적으로 증가했지만, 연구 성과의 활용수준은 아직 미비하다. 이로 인해 공공연구기관의 성과 활용을 위한 기술이전사업화의 원활한 추진 및 관련 사업의 성공적 수행을 위해, 전문성을 바탕으로 한 기술이전 사업화 전담조직(Technology Transfer&Licensing Organization)의 운영이 중요해지고 있다. TLO 조직의 효율적인 업무 수행 및 연구개발 성과물의 활용 개선을 위해 본 연구에서는 TLO조직의 업무 영역별 활동을 도출하여 업무 체계를 정립하고 업무 활동에 따른 활동 우선순위를 분석하고자 한다. 이를 위해 선행 연구와 전문가 인터뷰를 통해 업무 활동 체계를 정립하고, 6개 업무영역과 21개의 업무 활동을 도출하였다. 도출된 TLO의 업무 영역별 활동을 AHP 분석으로 각 업무 영역별 활동에 대한 상대적 중요도를 계산한 후에 업무 우선순위를 분석하였다. 본 연구의 결과가 기술이전 사업화 업무 활동을 정립하고 업무 활동별 주요 업무의 우선순위를 파악하여 대학 및 출연연구기관의 기술이전 사업화 조직의 업무 효율성과 기술이전 성과를 높이는 데 시사점을 제공 할 수 있을 것으로 기대된다.
