To analyze the main topics related to the use of blockchain technology, the Topic Modeling Technique was applied to the 'Blockchain Technology Utilization' big data shown in newspaper articles. To this end, from 2013 to 2019, when newspaper articles on the use of blockchain technology first appeared, the topics were extracted from 21 newspapers and analyzed by time to 15,537 articles. As a result of the analysis, articles related to the utilization of blockchain technology have increased exponentially since 2015 and focused on IT_science and economics. Key words related to cryptocurrency, bitcoin and virtual currency were weighted high, although they differed depending on time. Blockchain technology, which had focused on financial transactions, gradually expanded to big data, Internet of Things and artificial intelligence. As a result, changes in corporate topics were also made together to expand into various fields at banks for financial transactions, focusing on large and global companies. The study showed how these topics were changing, along with the main topics in newspaper articles related to the use of blockchain technology.

This study analyzes determinants of innovation in Korea manufacturing industries from 2005 to 2007. In order to do this, we use raw data from 'Korea Innovation Survey 2008: Manufacturing Sector' conducted by STEPI, and also collect financial statement data from Korea Investors Service. As an analytical method for the empirical test, we utilize Probit model. Empirical results show that firm size and market concentration have positive relationship with firm's innovation activities. These support the ‘Schumpeterian hypothesis’. This would be the most distinguished feature of this study compared to previous literatures.Our study also shows that R&D personnel ratio, R&D intensity, and advertising intensity have positive effects on firms' innovation. Thus, we can say that R&D activities and consumer orientation are the main determinants of innovation. However, profit ratio and growth rate do not have any statistically significant effect on firms' innovation.

최근 무형자산의 중요성과 함께 많은 선진기업들은 지속적인 가치창출을 위한 전략수립 및 수행절차를 통해 경쟁우위를 갖는데 노력하고 있다. BSC는 기업의 전략을 전사조직 차원에서 실행 시킬 수 있는 기반을 조성하며, 기업의 자원을 핵심역량에 집중시켜 전략의 실행력을 구체화하기 위한 경영기법 중 하나로 자리잡고 있으며, 이미 국내 다양한 공공 및 민간부문에서 BSC도입을 통해 기업전략과의 연계를 강화해 나가고 있는 추세이다. 그러나 특정산업에 따라 각 산업의 특성을 고려한 BSC기반의 CSF(사업핵심성공요소)와 KPI(주요성과지표) Pool에 대한 실질적인 연구는 다소 미흡한 실정이다. 국내 건설업인 경우, 관리의 복잡성으로 인해 아직까지 재무적 손익 중심의 성과측정에 주로 의존하고 있으며, 비재무적인 측면의 다양한 성과지표를 포함하지 못하고 있는 실정이다. 이에 본 연구에서는 건설산업에 적합한 BSC관점을 고려한 건설업의 CSF/KPI Pool를 제시하고 도출된 CSF가 기업의 경영성과와 어떤 상관관계를 살펴봄으로써 실제 의미가 있는지 알아보는데 목적을 두고 있다. 본 연구결과는 건설 산업에서의 성과측정의 기초자료로서 활용되어 체계적인 성과관리의 향상에 기여하고 미래 성과창출의 유인을 제공하고자 한다.

The purpose of this study is to grasp the type of network activity and corporate competency based on network theory and to compare and analyze the relationship between these characteristics and business performance. The results showed that the frequency, importance, and reliability of CEO's had a positive (+) effect on business performance, and the mediating effect of corporate competency (industrial information competency, opportunity capture competency, strategic flexibility, and transaction cost reduction) appeared. This study tried to measure business performance by including corporate competency as a direct performance variable of CEO's network activity and found that it is desirable to focus on interacting with the most important network sources and to make efforts to strengthen the qualitative characteristics of network activities rather than expanding the scope of the network in order to improve the performance of CEO's Network Activity.

This study aims at researching whether business founders' psychological characteristics, behavioral characteristics, and career characteristics have influence upon corporate performance and whether business founders' career characteristics and start-up education experience have influence upon corporate performance targeting business founders of start-up business-incubated companies. As a result of this study, business founders' psychological characteristics(achievement desire, risk-endurance propensity) were indicated to have significant influence upon corporate performance. On the other hand, business founders' behavioral characteristics were indicated to have no influence upon corporate performance. Also, it is seen to have clarified that business founders' career characteristics, past practical-affairs experience during start-up education business, and job-life experience are important factors of having significant influence upon corporate performance. These findings are expected to give many implications even to preliminary business founders as well as establishment in supportive direction and effective development of start-up business-incubated companies. Accordingly, the implication is seen to have been suggested that the services, which the business incubator supports the living-in companies, need to be planned and offered by considering business founders' characteristics of start-up business.

Firm’s social network has been known as an important firm strategy because it could promote technological innovation and also minimize economic uncertainty. In this study, we identify four types of firm’s social network activities such as Collaboration, Manufacturing/Marketing/Distribution Agreements, Financing, and M&A, and analyze how these activities affect firm performance using U.S biotechnology firm data. We found that Manufacturing/Marketing/Distribution Agreements increased firm performance in short-run. Also, collaboration with pharmaceutical and biotechnology firms had a positive effect on firm performance, too. However, collaboration with public institutes or universities had a negative effect on firm performance in short run, which implies its collaboration would be mainly focused on research in pure science area. These empirical results provide two policy implications. First, social network strategy should be encouraged in the Korean biotechnology industry. Secondly, governments should consider developing polices that support collaboration of biotechnology with public institutes or universities, to promote technological innovation.

This study investigates the effects of real exchange rate (RER) on firm level mark-up and export. Using firm level data in Daegu-Gyeongbuk manufacturing industries during 2006-2013, we find that firms adjust their markup in response to the RER changes and this adjustment is heterogeneous with respect to firm and industry characteristics. In particular, an increase in markup following the RER depreciation is greater for firms with lower intermediate input import and higher industry concentration. However, productive firms in this region increase their export, instead of markup, during the RER depreciation. This implies that the productive firms in the region may not retain significant market power: They do not change the final price in local currency to increase selling volume during the RER depreciation (the export price in foreign currency decreases).

SMEs and small enterprises are making various attempts to manage SMEs in terms of equipment, safety and energy management as well as production management. However, SMEs do not have the investment capacity and it is not easy to build a smart factory to improve management and productivity of SMEs. In this paper, we propose a smart factory construction algorithm that partially integrates the factory equipment currently operated by SMEs. The proposed algorithm supports collection, storage, management and processing of product information and release information through IoT device during the whole manufacturing process so that SMEs' smart factory environment can be constructed and operated in stages. In addition, the proposed algorithm is characterized in that central server manages authentication information between devices to automate the linkage between IoT devices regardless of the number of IoT devices. As a result of the performance evaluation, the proposed algorithm obtained 13.7% improvement in the factory process and efficiency before building the Smart Factory environment, and 19.8% improvement in the processing time in the factory. Also, the cost of input of manpower into process process was reduced by 37.1%.
