초록

우리나라는 국가 경제와 산업발전을 위해 정부주도의 창업정책을 추진하여 높은 수준의 창업률을 달성하였다. 그러나 창업률만큼 높은 수준의 창업기업 폐업률은 국내 창업생태계의 질적 성장이 미흡하다는 것으로 판단할 수 있다. 본 연구는 창업기업이 죽음의 계곡을 극복하여 생존율을 높이는 방안을 입지환경 관점에서 연구하고자 한다. 창업기업의 기술지향성과 시장지향성이 경영성과에 미치는 영향과 입지환경을 구성하는 경제성, 접근성, 네트워크 요인의 조절효과를 분석한다. 본 연구목표를 달성하기 위해 혁신중개자의 기업지원사업을 받은 창업기업 대상으로 실증 분석하였다. 연구결과를 살펴보면, 기술지향성의 연구개발역량은 경영성과에 유의한 영향을 미치며, 시장지향성의 시장정보생성과 시장정보대응은 경영성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 입지환경의 하부요인인 접근성은 기술혁신성과 경영성과 간의 관계에서 정(+)의 조절효과를 미치고, 입지환경(경제성, 접근성, 네트워크)은 시장정보생성과 경영성과 간의 관계에서 정(+)의 조절효과를 미치는 것으로 확인할 수 있었다. 본 연구는 창업기업 성공실패 선행연구를 비교·분석 후 공통요인을 도출하였다. 실증분석과 관계자 인터뷰를 통해 창업기업의 지속적 성장을 위한 정책적 시사점을 제시하였다. 향후 연구에서는 수도권·비수도권 창업기업을 대상으로 비교·분석이 필요하며, 지역을 이탈하여 수도권 이전한 창업기업 대상으로 연구하여 지역창업생태계를 발전시키는 방안을 모색해야 할 것이다.

Korea has achieved a high startup rate by promoting government-led startup policies for national economic and industrial development. However, as high as the startup rate is, the closure rate of startup companies can be judged to be insufficient for the qualitative growth of the domestic startup ecosystem. This study aims to investigate how to improve the survival rate of startups by overcoming the valley of death from a location environment perspective. It analyzes the effects of technology orientation and market orientation of start-ups on management performance and the moderating effects of economic, accessibility, and network factors that constitute the location environment. To achieve the research objectives, the empirical analysis was conducted on start-up companies that received corporate support projects from innovation intermediary organizations. The results show that R&D capability of technology orientation has a significant effect on management performance, and market information generation and market information response of market orientation have a significant effect on management performance. As for the moderating effect, accessibility, a sub-factor of the location environment, has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between technological innovation and managerial performance, and the location environment (economy, accessibility, and network) has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between market information generation and managerial performance. This study compared and analyzed previous studies on the success and failure of start-ups and identified common factors. In addition, this study provides policy implications for the sustainable growth of startups through empirical analysis and interview with stakeholders. For future research, it is necessary to compare and analyze start-ups in metropolitan areas and non-metropolitan areas. In addition, it is necessary to study startups that have moved out of the region and into the metropolitan area to find ways to develop the regional startup ecosystem.
