Abstract

The Korean economy has undergone growth based on manufacturing end products. The Korean government aims to advance industry by strengthening the materials and components industry, which is attracting more attention in terms of maintaining the competitiveness of existing key industries, and fostering new industries required in the era of the Fourth Industrial Revolution. Despite this importance, there is insufficient related research on the efficient R&D of the materials and components industry. This study analyzed the R&D efficiency. In addition, exploratory research was conducted on the impact of corporate size and type of cooperation on R&D efficiency. Output variables were set to reflect economic performance and the empirical analysis revealed that overall R&D efficiency is low. Small firms were found to perform better than large firms in terms of firm-size, and the efficiency of business-university-research cooperation is worse than other types of cooperation. This study is exploratory research considering the materials and components industry, and the results provide implications for research institutions and regarding types of cooperation. This is expected to help develop polices for qualitative growth and R&D strategies for investment and allocation.

완제품 제조업 중심의 성장을 진행한 한국경제는 소재부품산업의 경쟁력 강화를 통한 산업고도화를 지향하고 있다. 소재부품산업은 기존 핵심산업의 경쟁력 유지 및 4차 산업혁명 시대에 요구되는 신산업의 육성 측면에서 더욱 주목받고 있다. 이러한 중요성에도 불구하고, 소재부품산업의 효율적인 R&D를 위한 연구가 매우 부족한 현황이다. 본 연구는 정부의 소재부품기술개발사업 성과 데이터를 기반으로 R&D 효율성 분석과 이에 기업규모와 협력유형이 미치는 영향에 대하여 탐색적 연구를 진행하였다. 분석결과, 전반적으로 R&D 효율성은 낮은 것으로 나타났으나, 이는 경제적 성과가 반영된 산출변수 설정에 기인한 결과로 판단한다. 중소기업이 주관기관일 경우가 대기업보다 규모 성과가 우수한 것으로 나타났으며, 산학연이 협력할 경우가 그렇지 않은 경우와 비교하여 성과가 저조한 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구의 결과는 연구개발 수행기관 및 협력유형에 따른 R&D 성과 창출에 대한 시사점을 제시하였다. 이는 국내 소재부품산업이 당면한 질적 성장을 위한 산업정책 기획, R&D 투자 및 배분 전략 수립에 도움을 줄 것으로 기대한다.
