Abstract
In this study, the purpose of the study is to derive the relationship between factors affecting the establishment of start-up companies, technical innovation performance, and technology commercialization, and to confirm the effects of start-up factors and technology commercialization on the technological innovation performance based on the analysis. For this research, a survey was conducted on employees aged 20 or older who were employed in large national enterprises or medium and small-sized enterprises, etc. and the results of the empirical analysis were as follows. Firstly, the factors influencing start-ups were found to have a significant impact on the technology commercialization(manufacturing capacity, producing capacity). Secondly, technology commercialization had a significant impact on the technological innovation performance(business performance, customer performance), and thirdly, technology commercialization had a partial mediating effect in the relationship between start-up factors and technical performance. This study confirmed that the factors of start-up, technology commercialization, and technological innovation performance have statistically significant impact relations, and further research on start-up factors and technology commercialization is necessary for the technological innovation and creation of companies.
