초록

전 세계적으로 농식품 벤처에 대한 관심과 투자가 증가하고 있다. 국내에서도 농식품 벤처창업이 늘고 있으나 산업적 특성으로 인한 제약요인과 함께 성장으로 이어지기 위한 인프라와 투자가 부족한 현실이다. 본 연구는 기술사업화역량 및 경쟁전략이 농식품 벤처기업의 성장전망에 미치는 영향과 비즈니스모델 혁신의 매개효과를 확인한 후, 선행연구와의 비교를 통해 전체 벤처기업과 다른 농식품 벤처만의 산업적 특성을 파악하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 2021년 벤처기업정밀실태조사 원데이터로부터 농식품 벤처기업만을 추출하여 실증 분석하였다. 연구 결과, 기술사업화역량의 생산화역량과 경쟁전략의 원가우위수준, 차별화수준은 성장전망에 정(+)의 영향을 미치며, 이 중 생산화역량과 차별화수준은 비즈니스모델 혁신의 매개효과를 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 농식품 벤처의 장기적 성장 전망을 위하여 산업적 특성을 고려한 차별화된 영향요인을 규명하였으며, 비즈니스모델 혁신과 연계한 실무적 시사점을 제공하였다. 향후 연구에서는 객관적 측정 도구의 개발, 업력 및 규모에 따른 세부 분석 등이 필요할 것으로 보인다.

Interest and investment in agri-food ventures is increasing worldwide. Agri-food venture startups are also increasing in Korea, but there are constraint factors due to industrial characteristics, and infrastructure and investment for growth are insufficient. This study confirmed the effect of technology commercialization capability and competitive strategy on the growth prospects of agri-food venture companies and the mediating effect of business model innovation. And, through comparison with previous studies, the industrial characteristics were identified by confirming the difference between all venture companies and agri-food ventures. For this, only agri-food ventures data were extracted from the original data of the Research on the Precision Status of Venture Firms 2021. And empirical analysis was conducted. As a result, manufacturing capability, cost leadership and product differentiation had a positive(+) effect on growth prospects. The mediating effect of business model innovation between manufacturing capacity, product differentiation and growth prospects was verified. Through the research results, factors affecting the long-term growth prospects of agri-food ventures were identified in consideration of industrial characteristics. In addition, practical implications in connection with business model innovation of agri-food ventures were presented. In future research, it is necessary to develop an objective measurement tool and to conduct a detailed analysis according to business history and company size.
