Abstract

Knowledge network is considered to be an important factor in securing regional economic performance and competitiveness. In addition, research institutes that are capable of absorbing knowledge tend to form a global knowledge network regardless of geographical factors, and those that are not, are heavily influenced by regional factors. In this study, we examined how much influence of geographical factors of knowledge network is influenced by lower knowledge absorptive capacity in Korea. As a result, it was shown that the higher institutes of knowledge absorption, the more international collaborative research is being carried out. In other words, a region where science and technology has developed means that regional factors are no longer important factors. The results of this study correspond with the discussion of the preceding theories. In addition, it is worthy of study in that the precedent study was carried out in the case study in Korea.

지식 네트워크는 지역의 경제적 성과와 경쟁력을 확보하는데 중요한 요소로 간주된다. 또한 지식을 흡수할 수 있는 능력이 높은 연구기관들은 지역적 요인에 상관없이 글로벌 지식 네트워크를 형성하려는 경향이 강하며, 그렇지 않은 기관들은 지역적 요인에 많은 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 한국의 지역을 중심으로 지식 흡수능력이 낮은 기관일수록 지식 네트워크의 지리적 요인에 얼마나 많은 영향을 받는지에 대해 검증하였다. 그 결과, 지식 흡수능력이 높은 기관일수록 국제 공동연구를 추진하고 있는 것으로 나타났으며 수도권을 제외한 다른 지역에서는 거점 대학을 중심으로 연구가 진행되고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 즉, 과학기술이 발전된 지역은 더 이상 반드시 지역적인 요소가 중요 요인이 아니라는 것을 의미한다. 이러한 연구결과는 상당부분 선행이론들의 논의와 부합하는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 사전연구에 대해 한국 지역을 중심으로 사례연구를 진행하여 이를 검증하였다는 점에서 연구의 가치가 있다.
