Abstract

The international trends in activities of government R&D performance measurement is evolving into evidence-based approach to support the verification of objective policy implementation. The European Commission has been implementing KETs (Key Enabling Technologies) policy that incubates nanotech based emerging technologies to support the fourth industrial revolution/revitalization of high-tech manufacturing, and resulting innovations are quantified by KETs Observatory project. The European Commission also built Innovation Radar system that monitors potentially innovative projects within FP7 and Horizon2020 by data analysis. The United States is also upgrading its Federal RePORTER system to quantitatively monitor federal R&D investments with outcomes (including nanotechnology). In the field of Korean nanotechnology, basic statistical data by analyzing NTIS (National Science & Technology Information Service) information is applied in policy field. Developing innovation measurement methodology beyond basic statistical analysis is an international policy issue, and a long-term R&D investment area of a government. The objective of this model study is to quantify the innovation potential of nano R&D investments conducted by Korea government, using input-output based efficiency measurement model and NTIS (National Science & Technology Information Service) that is comprehensive data portal for national R&D investments/outcomes including nanotechnology.

국제적으로 정부의 연구개발 성과분석 활동은 증거기반 데이터를 통해 혁신성을 파악하고, 또한 객관적인 정책이행의 타당성을 확보하는 방향으로 진화중이다. 유럽연합의 경우 4차산업혁명/첨단제조업 부흥을 지원하는 나노기술 기반의 KETs(Key Enabling Technologies) 정책을 추진하여 왔으며, KETs Observatory 프로젝트를 통해 KETs가 도출한 정량적 혁신성과들을 유럽연합 홈페이지를 통해 공개하였다. 유럽연합은 또한 FP7 및 Horizon2020이 지원한 혁신적 연구과제들을 데이터 분석을 통해 파악하는 Innovation Radar 시스템을 구축하였다. 미국 역시 Federal RePORTER 시스템을 통해 나노기술을 포함한 연방의 연구개발 투자/성과를 정량적으로 집계/분석 하는 체계를 고도화 중이다. 한국 나노기술 분야의 경우 NTIS(National Science & Technology Information Service) 정보를 분석한 기초통계 자료들이 정책 현장에서 활용되고 있다. 기초 통계자료 수준을 넘어선 혁신성 분석 방법론의 고도화는 미국 유럽을 포함한 세계 각국의 정책 이슈이며, 또한 정부의 장기적인 연구개발 투자 영역이다. 본 연구는 한국 NTIS의 나노기술 연구개발 투자 결과와 투입-산출 기반의 효율성 분석 모형을 활용하여, 정부 R&D 투자의 혁신 특성을 정량화 하는 연구를 시도하였다.
