Abstract

This study aims to examine the results of start-up policies of the previous government (2013-2017) and the current government (2017-2022). We would like to compare the perceptions of founders on the domestic start-up environment in 2016 and 2021. Based on the data (GETR) that surveyed the perception of the startup environment in 2016, a trend survey was conducted to compare the perception of the start-up environment of founders in 2021. As a result of the study, the founder's perception of the domestic start-up environment changed positively overall, but there was no significant change in the perception of 'tax adequacy', 'easy to recover investment', and 'easy to transfer technology'. In addition, the perception of the start-up environment of livelihood founders was negative compared to opportunity-type start-ups. As such, different results were found for each type of start-up. This study analyzed the difference in perception of the past and present start-up environment from the perspective of founders. In particular, I would like to propose a plan to improve the quality of the domestic start-up environment by seeking support measures for livelihood-type start-ups that have collapsed due to COVID-19.

본 연구는 '창조경제 추진을 위한 창업 활성화 및 저변 확대'를 목표로 창업정책을 추진한 박근혜정부(2013-2017)와 '혁신을 응원하는 창업국가 조성'을 추진한 문재인정부(2017-2022)의 창업 정책결과를 살펴보고자 한다. 이를 위해 정책 결과가 드러나는 각 정부의 후반기인 2016년과 2021년의 국내 창업환경에 대한 창업자들의 인식을 비교하고자 한다. 2016년 창업환경에 대한 인식을 조사한 데이터(GETR : Global Entrepreneurship Trend Report)를 기초로 하여 2021년 창업자들의 창업환경에 대한 인식을 비교하기 위해 종단연구방법(Longitudinal Analysis) 중 하나인 추세조사(Trend Study)를 진행했다. 연구 결과, 전반적으로 국내 창업환경에 대한 창업자의 인식은 긍정적으로 변화되었으나, 세금적절성, 투자회수용이성, 기술이전용이성 등에 대한 인식개선은 큰 변화가 없는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 창업환경에 대한 창업유형별 인식 차이에서 생계형 창업자들이 갖는 창업환경에 대한 인식은 기회형창업에 비해 부정적으로 나타나면서 창업유형별로 다른 결과가 나타났다. 본 연구는 창업자 및 창업경험자를 대상으로 2016년과 2021년도 국내 창업환경 및 창업 인식을 비교함으로써 창업자 입장에서 과거와 현재의 창업환경에 대한 인식 차이를 분석하였다. 특히 COVID-19로 인해 붕괴된 국내 생계형창업 및 소상공인창업에 대한 지원방안을 모색함으로써 국내 창업 활성화 및 창업환경의 질적 제고 방안을 제안하고자 한다.
