Making efforts to break down the barriers between the intra-company departments as well as cooperating with external partners can become the driving force to create a successful innovation in the new product development (NPD) process. This study deals with how the key factors of collaborative innovation success are working in the process of NPD collaboration. Using case analysis of the NPD process, where a large retailer and small and medium-sized suppliers cooperate, we found that the small and medium-sized suppliers achieved greater 'short-term' performances in the collaboration than the large firm, although the long-term performance is not clear. Among the six antecedents of innovation success, relationship-specific investment played a critical role in motivating the supplier's participation in the NPD process. Adopting a 'closed' network in which the two suppliers interact directly with each other and create new knowledge for the NPD process played an important role in producing a quality product in a reduced development time. Unlike previous studies about the retailer-supplier cooperation for NPD in the food industry suggesting that position differences cause communication problems which is a major obstacle to the NPD success. This study suggests that large retailer's initiative role is a critical success factor in the NPD by the cooperation between small and medium-sized suppliers and large retailers.

계속 높아지는 기업가정신과 창업의도에도 불구하고 2017년 OECD 보고서에 따르면 한국은 실패에 대한 두려움이 높은 국가로 전체 7위롤 기록했다. 실패 후 신용 불량으로 인한 재기 불가능에 대한 인식이 여전히 팽배해 창업을 저해하는 요인으로 아직까지 큰 비중을 차지하고 있다. 그러므로 실패에 대해 관용적인 문화와 실패를 통한 학습 독려, 실패 기업인의 재도전 지원 활성화 정책은 한국을 진정한 창업국가로 변모하게 할 것이다. 그러나 무엇보다 실패를 경험한 창업가 본인 자신이 새롭게 재기에 임하는 마음가짐이 중요하므로 본 연구의 목적 역시 재창업자가 다시 창업에 어떤 자세로 임해야 하는지 찾고자 하는데 있다. 따라서 본 연구는 재기에 성공한 4명의 사업가와 재도전을 했으나 여전히 성과를 못 내고 있는 5명의 사업가를 인터뷰하여 재도전의 성공 요인을 탐색하고자 한다. 연구 결과, 재기 창업가가 재도전 성공을 위해 가져야 할 자세와 역량을 1) 지식(knowledge), 2) 인지(cognition), 3) 감정(emotion) 이상 3가지 관점에서 기존의 연구가 다루지 못한 접근법을 제안한다. 먼저, 지식 관점에서 보면 기존 사업과의 동질성 여부가 중요한 것이 아니라, 새롭게 진출하는 영역에 대한 준비성이 재도전의 성공 여부에 영향을 미쳤다. 다음으로, 인지적 관점에서는 과거 실패의 원인에 대한 분석과 자기 실책으로의 귀인은 차이를 보이지 않았고 오히려 앞으로 영위할 사업에 대한 여러 사람들의 지적과 충고에 대한 수용 역량(coachability)이 성공과 실패를 나눴다. 마지막으로 감정 관점에서 선행연구는 실패로부터 슬픔을 빨리 극복하는 사람이 학습과정도 빨리 이뤄지는 것으로 여겨졌으나, 슬픔의 극복은 재기 후 성과와는 관련이 없었으며, 본 연구에서는 재기 전 생계유지가 가능한 상태 여부가 성공의 선행조건이 될 수 있음을 발견하였다.

Gentrification is the process by which a working class or other disadvantaged area of a city changes into a middle class residential or commercial district. Gentrification, which has received much attention in arts management in recent years as part of a concern with urban regeneration, carries a generally negative connotation. In this paper, we interrogate this negative view of gentrification to explore ways arts entrepreneurship can convert the perceived threat of gentrification into opportunity. To this end, we examine the Mullae Cultural Salon in the gentrifying district of the Mullae Creative Village. Through a literature review of gentrification and arts entrepreneurship, we propose seven elements of art entrepreneurs responding to gentrification as an analytic framework for research. Our findings indicate that arts entrepreneurs were able to extend the maturity phase of gentrification and thus enhance the cultural and artistic value of the region for other artists and arts entrepreneurs.

The purpose of this paper is to examine the relationship between entrepreneurship and management with respect to research and education. There has been scholars who argue entrepreneurship is, and should be, different from management. Most famous example is Shane, who strongly advocate the distinct domain of entrepreneurship clearly distinguishable from (strategic) management. In spite of the argument, it is true that in most universities, entrepreneurship research and education are encompassed as part of a business school. In Korea, however, where entrepreneurship education has been supported and in part led by government, the situation is different. In this paper, we examine such phenomena and then investigate the related papers published in Korea since 2000. We categorized the papers according to the research context, theory and methodology adopted, and variables used for empirical study. The result illustrate that there exist a substantial number of entrepreneurship papers, distinguishable from management papers, focusing the narrow topic of 'entrepreneurial intention'. However, the other papers with titles or keyword of entrepreneurship are on the borderline of entrepreneurship and management. Futhermore, in-depth research on the entrepreneurial process which is often argued as unique topic of entrepreneurial research is very rare. Therefore, the quantity and quality of future study on the entrepreneurial process will be the touchstone to judge whether or not the entrepreneurship and management are differentiated.

Startups are recognized as the vitality of the economy, and countries are competing to attract competitive overseas entrepreneurs and startups to their own startup ecosystem. In this global trend, entrepreneurs cross the border without hesitation, expecting abundant available resources and a startup friendly environment. Despite the increasing frequency of start-up migration between countries, studies related to this are very rare. Therefore, this study has chosen the cross-border migration of startups between countries as a research topic, and those who have been involved in the cross-border entrepreneurial migration to South Korea as a research sample. This study consists of two stages. The first research stage hires a Delphi method to collect expert opinions and find major factors related to the global startup migration. Drawing on the prior literature on the regional startup ecosystem at the national level, this stage is to conduct expert interviews in order to discover underlying factors and subfactors important for global migration of startups. The second stage measures the importance of the factors and subfactors using the AHP model. The priorities of factors and factors were identified hiring the overseas entrepreneurs who moved to Korea as the AHP survey samples. The results of this study suggest some interesting implications. First, a group of entrepreneurs with nomadic tendencies was found in the trend of global migration of entrepreneurs. They had already started their own businesses with the same business ideas in multiple countries before settling down in Korea. Second, important unique factors and subfactors in the context of global start-up migration were identified. A good example is the government's support package, including start-up visas. Third, it was possible to know the priority of the factors and subfactors that influence the global migration of startups This study is meaningful in that it preemptively conducted exploratory research focusing on a relatively new phenomenon of global startup migration, which recently catches attention in the global startup ecosystem. At the same time, it has a limitation in that it is difficult to generalize the meanings found in this study because the research was conducted based on the case of South Korea

In young entrepreneurs, the individual situation of opportunity discovery is very important. It is very important that the opportunities that are created for a particular individual entrepreneur are also recognized and assessed through the process. The need for the development of entrepreneurial opportunity competencies, which have a low proportion of opportunistic entrepreneurship, is low in the entrepreneurship education. In particular, young entrepreneurs are in desperate need of opportunistic entrepreneurship. The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of entrepreneurship motivation on entrepreneurial opportunity competence, using entrepreneurial orientation and entrepreneurship orientation as mediation variables for preliminary young entrepreneurs (19-39 old). In the case of young entrepreneurs, there is a tendency to study entrepreneurship policies and education through the system of youth entrepreneurship schools, mainly on college students and youths, and on the effects of institutional support on entrepreneurship. There is little research on the effect of a entrepreneurial motivation on the entrepreneurial opportunity competence needed to promote an entrepreneurial venture in a model with multiple mediators. The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of start - up motivation on the entrepreneurial opportunity competence. To do this we analyzed 374 questionnaires collected from preliminary young entrepreneurs in Seoul and Gyeonggi provinces. The results of the analysis using SPSS v22.0 and Process macro v3.0 showed that the motivation of start - up had a significant effect on both opportunity recognition and opportunity evaluation of entrepreneurial opportunity competence. Second, motivation of entrepreneurs has a significant effect on entrepreneurial efficacy. Third, entrepreneurial efficacy has a significant effect on entrepreneurial orientation. Fourth, entrepreneurial orientation has a significant effect on entrepreneurial opportunity competence. Fifth, there is a significant indirect effect between entrepreneurial motivation and entrepreneurial opportunity recognition when passing through entrepreneurial orientation, entrepreneurial efficacy and entrepreneurial orientation at the same time, But indirect effects was insignificant when only entrepreneurship efficacy is passed. There is a significant indirect effect on all mediators between entrepreneurial motivation and entrepreneurial opportunity valuation. It is suggested that strengthening education on entrepreneurship is necessary to cultivate awareness of entrepreneurship opportunities and strengthening education on both entrepreneurial efficacy and entrepreneurship is necessary to cultivate evaluation of entrepreneurship opportunities by type of entrepreneurial motivation.
