기술혁신은 끝없이 지속적, 반복적으로 발생하지만, 최근의 기술혁신은 자체적인 혁신의 한계에 직면하고 있는 것처럼 보여진다. 국가경제의 발전은 개별적으로 진행되어 온 기술혁신에 크게 의존하지만, 이제 개별적인 혁신의 한계를 극복하기 위하여 이종간 기술 및 산업융합이 활발하게 모색되고 있다. 융합이라는 새로운 환경은 개별적인 기술이나 산업에 다양한 기회와 위험을 제공하게 될 것이다. 융합이라는 것이 단지 하나의 영역에 머무르는 개념이 아니라 여러 분야에 걸쳐서 대단히 광범위한 영역에서 발생하게 될 것이라는 점에서 그렇다. 이미 초기적인 융합의 현상들은 도처에서 발견되고 있으며, 이제 이를 더욱 확대 발전시키고 심화시켜 나가기 위한 노력들이 진행중이다. 융합을 가속화시키고 심화시켜 나가는데 필요한 요인은 무엇일까? 다양한 방법과 수단들이 거론될 수 있겠지만, 융합 발생의 광역성이라는 측면에서 개인의 창의력이 대단히 중요하다. 제한적인 인간의 역량으로 모든 분야에서 창의력을 발현한다는 것은 쉽지 않기 때문이다. 이러한 관점에서 우리나라 전체 기업의 대다수를 차지하는 중소기업의 역할은 대단히 중요하다. 국민소득 3만불 이상을 달성하기 위해서는 대기업과 중소기업의 육성을 위하여 다양한 정책을 입안하고 집행하여 왔지만, 중소기업의 경쟁력은 아직도 취약한 것이 회피할 수 없는 현실이다. 개인의 역량과 창의력 발현이 중시되는 융합환경에서 중소기업 육성을 위한 정책은 기존의 물적자원 중심의 지원방식과는 달리 다양한 협력네트워크의 구축과 네트워크 기반의 정보 공유 및 활용을 위한 방향으로 전환될 필요가 있다. 정보의 공유와 활용을 통하여 창의적인 아이디어의 발현이 더욱 확대되고 심화될 수 있기 때문이다.

The firms must perform both exploitation activities that efficiently use current resources and exploration activities that capture new opportunities. A company that simultaneously performs two opposite attributes, exploitation and exploration activities, is called an 'Ambidexerity Organization' or 'Organizational ambidexterity', which is called the Ambidextrous organization. This study examines whether the key factors of entrepreneurial orientation affect a firm's performance using two-handed strategies, and empirically analyzes the moderating effects of environmental dynamics. The results show that the entrepreneurial orientation has a significant effect on a firm's performance in the Ambidextrous organization. In addition, the moderating effect of environmental dynamics showed a moderating effect on the relationship between entrepreneurial orientation and organizational ambidexterity. This study not only suggests practical implications for SMEs, including venture firms and startups, but also has a significant impact on the relationship between organizational ambidexterity and a firm's performance. It is expected to make academic contributions by introducing variables and analyzing influential relationships.

Due to the recent mid- to long-term slump and falling growth rates in the global economy, interest in organizational structures that create new products or services as a new alternative to survive and develop in an opaque environment both internally and externally, and enhance organizational sustainability through changes in production methods and business innovation is increasing day by day. In this atmosphere, we agree that the growth of small and medium-sized venture companies has a significant impact on the national economy, and various efforts are being made to enhance the technological innovation capabilities of the members so that these small and medium-sized venture companies can enhance and sustain their performance. The purpose of this study is also to investigate how the technological innovation capabilities of small and medium-sized venture companies correlate with the performance of knowledge management and to analyze the role of network capabilities to organize the strategic activities of enterprise to obtain the resources and organizational capabilities to be used for value creation from external networks. In other words, research was conducted on the impact of technological innovation capabilities of small and medium venture companies on knowledge management performance by using network capabilities as parameters. Therefore, in this study, we would like to verify the hypothesis that innovation capabilities will have a positive impact on knowledge management performance by using network capabilities of small and medium venture companies. Economic activities based on technological innovation capabilities should respond quickly to new changes in an environment where uncertainty has increased, and lead to macro-economic growth and development as well as overcoming long-term economic downturns so that they can become the nation's new growth engine as well as sustainable growth and survival of the organization. In addition, this study was conducted by setting the most important knowledge management performance within the organization as a dependent variable. As a result, R&D and learning capabilities among technological innovation capabilities have no impact on financial performance. In contrast, it was shown that corporate innovation activities have a positive impact on both financial and non-financial performance. The fact that non-financial factors such as quality and productivity improvement are identified in the management of small and medium-sized venture companies utilizing their technological innovation capabilities is contrary to a number of studies by those corporate innovation activities affect financial performance during prior research. The reason for this result is that research companies have been out of start-up companies for more than seven years, but sales are less than 10 billion won, and unlike start-up companies, R&D and learning capabilities have more positive effects on intangible non-financial performance than financial performance. Corporate innovation activities have been shown to have a positive (+) impact on both financial and non-financial performance, while R&D and learning capabilities have a positive (+) impact on financial performance by parameters of network capability. Corporate innovation activities have been shown to have no impact on both financial and non-financial performance, and R&D and learning capabilities have no impact on non-financial performance. It could be seen that the parameter effects of network competency are limited to when R&D and learning competencies are derived from quantitative financial performance. It could be seen that the parameter effects of network competency are limited to when R&D and learning competencies are derived from quantitative financial performance.
