Entrepreneurship and innovation are highlighted as a way to overcome limitations and risk factors caused by today's uncertain business environment. As the uncertainty in the business environment increases, organizations are required to adapt to ever changing business dynamics. For this adaptation, entrepreneurship and innovation are crucial factors. This study proposes a model to explain a structural relationship between entrepreneurship, technological innovation, and innovation performance. The unit of analysis focus is small and medium-sized businesses. Empirical results show that there are positive causal relationships from entrepreneurship to technological innovation, and from technological innovation to innovation performance. Additionally, no direct relationship from entrepreneurship to innovation performance can be achieved through innovation activities such as technological innovation. This study points out the importance of entrepreneurship and technological innovation, and suggests that entrepreneurship along with technological innovation should be internalized as business practices leading to increased performance.

This study examines the effects of entrepreneurship and organizational innovation capacity(strategic planning capacity, R&D capacity, technology commercialization capacity) and strategic directionality (customer orientation, technology orientation) The relationship between corporate entrepreneurship and innovation capacity. First, the research model and the hypothesis were set up based on the literature review, and 400 questionnaires were distributed and retrieved for the manufacturing workers in Gyeongbuk province. As a result of the study, it accepted that the corporate entrepreneurship had significant influence on organizational innovation capacity. And confirmed a significant moderating effect of strategic directionality. However, the moderating effect of customer orientation was rejected in relation to entrepreneurship and technology commercialization. These findings can provide guidelines for organizational management in terms of culture by identifying the effects of corporate entrepreneurship and strategic orientation at organizational level.

This study empirically investigated the influence of entrepreneurship and technological commercialization capabilities of domestic small and medium-sized manufacturing enterprises on financial performance by mediating technological performance. To achieve this, a survey was administered to their hands-on workers in charge of R&D. The survey results were analyzed through the structural equation model as follows. Entrepreneurship had an effect on technological and financial performance. Technology commercialization capability had an effect on technological performance. However, technological commercialization capabilities were evaluated to be inferior to financial performance, which can be interpreted as financial performance being judged as different between individuals or organizations in terms of technological commercialization capabilities. Technological performance had an effect on financial performance. Technological performance played a mediating role in the effects of entrepreneurship and technology commercialization capability on financial performance. Consequently, it is very important for entrepreneurship and technology commercialization capability to develop new products and improve corporate performance with insufficient financial status or operating system completion.

4차 산업혁명 시대에 접어 들어 불확실성이 높아지고 변동성의 상시화로 세계 경제가 급변하면서, 기업가정신 교육의 중요성은 점점 더 높아지고 있다. 이러한 시대의 흐름에 따라 최근 청소년 기업가정신 교육이 확산되었다. 지속가능한 청소년 기업가정신 교육이 이루어지기 위해서는 시대의 변화와 함께 부모들의 인식과 태도도 함께 변화해야 한다. 부모는 새로운 지식과 그 시대가 요구하는 바람직한 자녀관을 형성해야 하며, 사회 전반적인 변화에 따른 학교에서의 기업가정신 교육이 가정에서도 일관성 있게 유지되어야 한다. 이에 본 연구는 부모교육의 중요성을 확인하고, 교육을 통해 부모의 인식을 변화시키기 위해 필요한 역량 도출하기 위해 델파이 조사를 실시하였다. 기업가정신 교육 전문가와 청소년 교육 전문가로 구성된 전문가 패널들을 대상으로 3회에 걸쳐 델파이 조사를 실시하였다. 델파이 조사 분석 결과, 부모 인식 전환을 위해 필요한 최종 8가지 역량(환경의 변화, 도전정신, 주체성/자울성, 창업에 대한 이해, 직업의 다양성, 기업가정신에 대한 이해, 개인의 다양성, 팀/협업에 대한 가치)을 도출하였다. 향후 후속 연구를 통해 도출된 역량을 함양할 수 있는 부모 기업가정신 교육 모델 및 프로그램을 설계하고자 한다.

As incipient organizations progress from formation to become larger entities, the procedures and rules that provided managerial and structural advantages in having established the organizations and promoting the growth impede the innovation and creativity vital to maintain the competitive advantage. Adopting Corporate Entrepreneurship (CE), large corporations have tried to overcome the dilemma and to sustain the innovation and creativity in order to effectively cope with harsh competitive realities. Recently, some advanced corporations are trying to enhance CE by setting up an internal venture program as a seed organization for CE. By making an in-depth analysis of the internal venture program, 'C-Lab' of Samsung that is promoting CE-related characteristics for enhancing CE, we attempt to shed light on (1) what kinds of environments should be built around the seed organization for CE (2) what are the major characteristics that should be promoted through the seed organization in relation to CE (3) What kinds of achievements can be made from the promoted characteristics (4) How the characteristics are spread over the entire organization. Based on the analysis, we suggest a generalized process in which CE can be enhanced. Since different approaches should be taken for managing the seed organization and spreading the characteristics depending on the strengths and weaknesses of a corporation, there must be the step, 'evaluation of corporate internal capabilities' in the process. We believe that each corporation can enhance CE by taking advantage of the process with reference to the C-Lab case study.

This study reviews the current status of entrepreneurship education programs in elementary and secondary schools, and analyzes the following educational needs among teachers. We have made the following conclusions from the study. First, career development teachers shared a strong need for entrepreneurship education programs. Second, the programs provided by these teachers were substandard despite the strong need expressed. In particular, insufficient training period and incentives were provided to teachers involved in the programs, and the teachers exhibited low standards in job specialization and class evaluation abilities. Third, the awareness of people involved in the education scheme was most critical in the cultivation and activation of entrepreneurship educations-according to the Borich educational demand calculations comparing the required and actual entrepreneurship education standards. In summary, the general educational conditions, such as the teachers' job specialization, educational support and environment, and partakers' awareness, were lacking in entrepreneurship education programs aimed at the youth. To stimulate the programs' effectiveness, teachers must be better trained; the programs should be better advertised; and specialization should be cultivated during training. Furthermore, the government's support towards program development and diversification through appropriate policies should aim to help the education's recipients in their proactive career development during the current 4th industrial revolution.

4차 산업혁명을 준비하는 창업자들의 경우 대부분 창업자가 보유한 기술을 기반으로 ICT관련 기술을 활용한 사업을 시작하는 경우가 대부분이다. ICT창업의 경우 보유한 기술에 대한 가치에만 초점이 맞추어져 보유한 기술의 수준이 높으면 기술성과가 높을 것이라는 막연한 생각을 하기 마련이다. 하지만 ICT창업의 경우도 다른 창업과 다르지 않게 많은 성공하기 위해서는 다양한 요인이 필요합니다. 본 연구는 ICT기반 창업자의 기업가정신과 기술혁신역량이 기술개발성과와 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 검증함을 통해 ICT창업자가 갖추어야할 역량과 다양한 요인에 대해 밝히고자 합니다. 기존연구는 일반 중소기업을 대상으로 한 연구가 대다수였으며 최근 급속도로 늘어난 ICT기반 창업자에 대한 연구가 부족하다. 그렇기 때문에 ICT기반 창업자에 대한 적용은 시기적절한 연구라 할 수 있다. 선행연구를 통해 다양하게 정의된 기업가정신 및 기술혁신역량의 구성요인을 이론적으로 고찰하였고 이를 독립변수로 하여 기술개발성과와 경영성과에 어떤 영향을 미치는지 대해 실증 연구하였다.
