초록

본 연구는 기존연구들을 분석하여 벤처기업의 성공개념을 정리하고 통합적 성공요인 모형을 도출하였다. 성공요인으로는 크게 창업자/팀 요인과 기업요인, 환경 요인 및 창업과정 요인으로 구분하여 각 요인들의 하위 구성요인들을 규명하였고, 기업성과로는 지표의 계량화 여부에 따라 정성/정량적 성과를 측정하거나 응답자의 주관적 평가 여부에 따라 주관/객관적 성과를 측정하는 것으로 통합모형을 설계하였다. 한국 벤처기업에 대한 실증분석으로는 성공 요인 중 하나인 벤처기업의 일반적 특성(업종, 규모, 소재지, 발전단계, 업력)을 주변에서 용이하게 수집할 수 있는 2차 자료를 활용하여 살펴보았다. 분석결과, 2016년 동안 기업의 평균 매출액이 가장 많은 업종은 음식료/섬유/(비)금속이며, 당기순이익이 가장 큰 업종은 컴퓨터/반도체/전자부품, 매출액 증가율이 가장 큰 업종은 정보통신/방송서비스와 소프트웨어 개발, 매출액 당기순이익률이 가장 큰 업종은 에너지/의료/정밀이었다. 종사자규모 측면에서 100인 이상 종사자의 벤처기업이 매출액과 당기순이익이 가장 많았으나, 일반적으로 종사자수와 매출액 및 당기순이익은 높은 상관관계를 보이기 때문에 이러한 결과는 큰 의미가 없으며, 오히려 매출액 증가율이나 매출액 당기순이익률이 의미가 있을 수 있는데, 특히 50~99인의 벤처기업이 이들 지표가 높았다. 소재지 측면에서 매출액이 가장 많은 지역은 서울/인천/경기였고, 당기순이익이 가장 큰 지역은 광주/전라/제주와 서울/인천/경기가 거의 비슷하였다. 매출액 증가율과 매출액 당기순이익률이 가장 큰 지역은 광주/전라/제주였다. 기업의 발전단계와 기업성과와의 관계에서는 예상대로 성숙기와 쇠퇴기의 매출액이 가장 많았다. 당기순이익도 성숙기가 가장 많았으며, 매출액 증가율은 창업기, 초기성장기, 고도성장기, 성숙기, 쇠퇴기의 순으로 전형적인 패턴을 보이고 있었다. 업력 측면에서는 매출액과 당기순이익이 가장 많은 업력은 21년 이상이었고, 창업 3년 이하가 가장 높은 매출액 증가율을 보였으며, 4~10년이 가장 높은 매출액 당기순이익률을 보였다. 연구의 논의사항에서 이들 분석결과에 대한 해석과 시사점들을 제시하였다. 본 연구는 벤처기업의 통합적 성공요인 모형을 제시하고, 한국 벤처기업의 경영성과를 분석함에 있어서 2차 자료의 활용방안을 실증적으로 보여줌으로써 여러 가지 유용한 시사점을 제시하고 있다.

This study examines the relationship between the organizational general characteristics (industry, size, location, development stage, and company age) and success factors of Korean venture firms using secondary data. Among the industries with the highest sales figures in 2016 are food / fiber / (non) metals, and the smallest category was software development. The sectors with the highest net profit were computer / semiconductor / electronic components, and the smallest category was telecommunication equipment / broadcasting equipment. The industries with the largest sales growth rate are IT / broadcasting services and software development. The industries with the highest net profit margin of sales are energy / medical / precision, and the smallest is telecommunication equipment / broadcasting equipment. In terms of the number of employees, venture firms with more than 100 employees have the largest sales and net profit, with employees between 1 and 9 have the smallest. However, these results are predictable. In general, the number of employees is highly correlated with sales and net profit. Rather, the sales growth rate and the net profit margin of sales may be meaningful. In particular, with employees between 50 ~ 99, the growth rate of sales and the net profit margin of sales were high. In terms of location, Seoul / Incheon / Gyeonggi were the regions with the highest sales and Daejeon / Sejong / Chungcheong / Gangwon were the least regions. Gwangju / Jeolla / Jeju and Seoul / Incheon / Gyeonggi were almost similar in the areas with the largest net profit. However, Daejeon / Sejong / Chungcheong / Gangwon had the lowest net profit. Unusually, the areas with the highest sales growth rate and the highest net profit margin of sales were Gwangju / Jeolla / Jeju, and the smallest areas were Busan / Jeonnam / Ulsan In the relationship between the stage of development and the performance of the company, the sales of maturity and decline stages were the highest and establishing stage was the lowest. Net profit was also the highest in mature stage and the smallest in establishing stage. The sales growth rate shows a typical pattern in the order of establishing stage, early growth stage, high growth stage, maturity stage, and decline stage. In terms of business performance, sales and net profit are the highest with 21 years or more of company age, and the smallest is less than 3 years. In addition, the sales growth rate was the highest in three years or less, and the net profit margin of sales was the highest in 4 to 10 years. This study can present lots of useful implications by suggesting integrated research model and examining the success factors of Korean venture firms and presenting the application methods of secondary data in analyzing the current status of venture industry in Korea.
