Abstract
The increasing number of global natural disaster has been raising people's concerns, and at the same time, disaster prevention technologies have been developed and advanced continuously. At this stage, it is necessary for the natural disaster prevention industry to be aware of the current status of the disaster prevention technologies and strength their competitiveness of technologies. This study investigates not only the current situation on the domestic natural disaster prevention industry, focusing on competitiveness of technologies, but also analyzes technologies based on type of disaster and type of technology by survey. The analyses reveal that there are differences in a way that companies categorized by annual revenue feel based on their competitiveness of disaster prevention technologies. This paper provides with suggestions, and policy implications are discussed.
