As artificial intelligence (AI) technology is recognized as a key technology that will determine future national competitiveness, competition for AI technology and industry promotion policies in major countries is intensifying. This study aims to present implications for domestic policy making by analyzing the policies of major countries on the start-up of AI companies, which are the basis of the AI industry ecosystem. The top four countries and the EU for the number of new investment attraction companies in the 2023 AI Index announced by the HAI Research Institute at Stanford University in the United States were selected, The United States enacted the National AI Initiative Act (NAIIA) in 2021. Through this law, The US Government is promoting continued leadership in the United States in AI R&D, developing reliable AI systems in the public and private sectors, building an AI system ecosystem across society, and strengthening DB management and access to AI policies conducted by all federal agencies. In the 14th Five-Year (2021-2025) Plan and 2035 Long-term Goals held in 2021, China has specified AI as the first of the seven strategic high-tech technologies, and is developing policies aimed at becoming the No. 1 AI global powerhouse by 2030. The UK is investing in innovative R&D companies through the 'Future Fund Breakthrough' in 2021, and is expanding related investments by preparing national strategies to leap forward as AI leaders, such as the implementation plan of the national AI strategy in 2022. Israel is supporting technology investment in start-up companies centered on the Innovation Agency, and the Innovation Agency is leading mid- to long-term investments of 2 to 15 years and regulatory reforms for new technologies. The EU is strengthening its digital innovation hub network and creating the InvestEU (European Strategic Investment Fund) and AI investment fund to support the use of AI by SMEs. This study aims to contribute to analyzing the policies of major foreign countries in making AI company start-up policies and providing a basis for Korea's strategy search. The limitations of the study are the limitations of the countries to be analyzed and the failure to attempt comparative analysis of the policy environments of the countries under the same conditions.

Using bidding data collected from the World Bank's open database, this research performed a series of competitive analyses of the major countries that have participated in the Bank's engineering consulting services contracts in Vietnam. The goal of the analysis was to evaluate the performance of Korean engineering firms to date, and provide strategic recommendations for future projects. Results showed that Korean firms had a high bid acceptance rate, comparable to major developed countries. The success was attributed to the high technical scores in the selection process. Comparatively, financial scores were not competitive and inferior to developing countries such as China and India. Results of a 'Skitmore' analysis revealed that Korea was competitive in medium size projects and were situated between developed and developing countries. Korea thus needs to increase participation in basic and detailed design services, 2) improve labor costs through 'localization' and latest technologies, and 3) and venture into larger sized projects.

The extant entrepreneurship research has emphasized the development of businesses by recognizing and exploiting new opportunities rather than the development of people in organizations. To remedy this issue, scholars recently suggested the concept of humane entrepreneurship where the traditional view on entrepreneurship is enhanced by the human-centered logic. However, more scholarly work is needed to develop the concept of humane entrepreneurship as a new perspective of the entrepreneurship research domain. In this article, we attempt to enhance the research on humane entrepreneurship by suggesting its theoretical foundations and identifying the underlying dimensions of humane entrepreneurship with empirical data. This study suggests the five disciplines in management studies as theoretical foundations of humane entrepreneurship: strategic entrepreneurship, stakeholder theory, transformational leadership, motivation theory, and humanistic management. Also, we developed the measurement of humane entrepreneurship and tested its reliability and validity by collecting data from 19 countries. The results showed that the concept of humane entrepreneurship is composed of two dimensions, humane and enterprise cycles. Finally, this study provides further research agenda in the domain of humane entrepreneurship research.

절충교역은 국방과학기술의 다양한 획득방법 중의 하나로써 국외로부터 무기체계를 구매할 경우 반대급부로 핵심기술, 방산물자 및 부품 수출 등을 획득하는 국제무역거래의 한 특수형태이다. 우리나라는 방위산업의 발전과 국방과학기술력 향상을 위해 1983년부터 절충교역을 추진하여 오고 있다. 절충교역은 일반적인 상업 무역거래와는 달리 절충교역 추진국가가 기술 수혜국으로서 소기의 목적을 달성하여 성공적인 기술이전을 완수하기 위해서는 절충교역 추진과장상의 운영의 묘미가 절실히 요구된다. 따라서 우리나라는 그동안 절충교역 추진 효율성을 강화하고 실패사례를 줄이기 위해 절충교역 추진 목적과 정책을 전략적으로 개선하여 절차화 표준화해오고 있다. 최근 방위사업청 개청 이후 절충교역 추진 정책의 방향을 목표지향 성과지향적으로 설정하고 다시 한번 제도를 개선하여 적용하고 있으나 아직까지 정책적 방향성에 부합하는 실무적 절충교역 추진 모델은 미흡하여 여전히 개선의 여지가 존재한다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 절충교역 제도의 완성도를 높여 우리나라의 국방과학기술력 향상과 방위산업 육성을 위해 필요한 기술을 최대한 확보할 수 있도록 하는 선순환 구조의 한국형 절충교역 추진 모델을 개발 제안한다. 제안하는 한국형 절충교역 추진 모델은 현행 제도에 대한 심층적인 분석을 통해 도출된 개선 필요사항을 보완할 수 있도록 전체 절충교역 추진절차를 식별(Detecting), 확보(Securing), 이전(Transfer), 활용(Applying), 확산(Diffusion)이라는 다섯 단계로 나누고 각 단계의 성공적인 목적 달성을 위한 제도적 개선 방안을 제시한다.

With the increase of data and the development of AI technology, the strategies and policies related to integrated data are being actively established to increase the usability of data all over the world. Recently, in the research field, infrastructure projects and management systems are being prepared to utilize research data at the initiative of the government. Also, in Korea, platforms for searching and sharing research data are being actively developed. The National Disaster Management Research Institute (NDMI) has been conducting extensive research on disaster & safety as a national institute, but data-oriented management and utilization are insufficient. Because it still lacks consistent data management systems, metadata for outcomes of research, experts on data and policies for utilization of data to research. In order to move to the data-based research paradigm, we defined the master plans and verified a target model for the integrated management and utilization of disaster & safety research data. In this study, we found out the need to establish differentiated data governance, such as data standardization and unification of the data management system, and dedicated organization for managing data, based on the necessity and actual demands of NDMI. In order to verify the effectiveness of the target model reflecting the derived implications, we intend to establish a pilot mode. In the future, major improvement measures to establish a disaster & safety research data management system will be implement.

The considerable budgets for the 2nd-phase NGIS projects are allocated to the projects for developments of the GIS applications. Especially, the 78 local governments are major users of GIS application systems. In spite of GIS necessity in local government, whether a GIS is 'good' or bad, depends on its implementation and operation. How to implement GIS in effective wav and how to measure GIS effect for justifying GIS funding can be major concerns. Because it takes minimum 3-4 years to equal the costs and benefits of GIS, the long-terms implementation strategies for GIS project in local government are required. In order to establish a proper implementation model for the GIS application projects and to promote activities in the projects, this study considers several problems in accordance with the phases of GIS evolution and solutions of these problems. Based an the GIS auditing and consulting experience in local governments, this study constructs a GIS implementation and maintenance model in long and comprehensive perspective. This model can be a key to affective and realistic implementation for the future GIS projects.

An economic evaluation was conducted using cost-benefit analysis for an integrated service platform of open access research articles. The data needed for benefit measurement were collected by conducting a series of surveys to service beneficiaries, including 1,313 academic researchers, 49 bio-industry researchers, and 102 researchers in various industries. Cost-benefit analysis and sensitivity analysis were conducted after estimating the total costs for system construction and operations, anticipated direct and indirect benefits. With respect to the cost-benefit analysis limited to direct benefits, the estimated benefit was KRW 82 billion, which is about 14 times of the total costs for eight years of the entire business period. With respect to the cost-benefit analysis for both direct and indirect benefits, BCR was estimated to be about 98.9 and NPV to be KRW 538.8 billion, indicating that economic feasibility of the project was sufficiently secured. The results of this analysis may help securing the investment to the integrated service platform for OA research products, and the benefit estimation model developed in this study would be utilized as an assessment tool during the rest of this project.

With the advancement in digital transformation with smart technologies and the collapse of industry borders, increasing is the importance of understanding customer problems, fostering employee capabilities, and enhancing the partner capabilities to properly provide the best service to customers. This is what is called the humane entrepreneurship in the 4th Industrial Revolution. Humane entrepreneurship is believed to play a critical role in developing business ecosystems and thus economic growth of nations. We empirically tested the ideas that 1) entrepreneurship as a meta-structuring action shape the healthiness of business ecosystem and 2) subsequently both entrepreneurship and business ecosystems affect economic development of a country. The results indicate that humane entrepreneurship does not directly affect healthiness of business ecosystem, but the balanced humane entrepreneurship together with opportunity in business ecosystems has a positive relationship with GDP growth. In other words, opportunity can be appropriated by entrepreneurs who have balanced sense between human and enterprise dimension. Data collection and methodologies are discussed further in the paper.
