In this study, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties of Sargassum patens extracts were identified. Antioxidant experiments included polyphenol concentration measurements, flavonoid concentration measurements, DPPH experiments, ABTS experiment NO experiments, and FRAP experiments. For polyphenols, 18.99±0.69 mg/g was shown. Flavonoids showed 11.89±1.16 mg/g. The DPPH experiment showed an antioxidant function of 19.78 mg ascorbic acid/g extract, the ABTS experiment showed an antioxidant function of 63.64 mg ascorbic acid/g extract, and the NO experiment showed an antioxidant function of 7.966 mg ascorbic acid/g extract. In FRAP, 1 mg of the moxibustion extract showed a reduction of 2.089 ㎍ of ascorbic acid. In the meantime, cell experiments showed cytotoxicity and anti-inflammatory functions against inflammation induced by LPS. In cytotoxicity experiments, Sargassum patens extracts showed a cell survival rate of more than 80% at all concentrations, and an inflammatory inhibition of 30.64±0.23% at a concentration of 100 ㎍/mL. These results indicate that Sargassum patens extract is available as an anti-inflammatory cosmetic material.

New product development(NPD) is imperative management activity for growth and survival of the firm. In the context of the small and medium-sized enterprises(SMEs), the firm became further dependent upon NPD with the increasing turbulence in environments. This research suggests the role of entrepreneurship orientation(EO) and absorptive capacity(ACAP) that affect the success rate of NPD in SMEs. Although each of them has been highlighted as critical resources in the aspect of the sustainable competitive advantage, the relationship and the effect between EO and ACAP have received scant attention. Based on the sample of 261 Korean SMEs, this study examines the direct/indirect effect of EO and ACAP on NPD performance. While innovativeness of EO has the direct effect on NPD performance, both risk-taking and proactiveness of EO show no significance. While realized ACAP has the positive influence on NPD performance, potential ACAP shows no significant influence. In addition, we found that the impact of innovativeness on NPD performance was being partially mediated by ACAP whereas the relationship between proactiveness and NPD performance being fully mediated by ACAP. These findings would provide generic insights that both exploration and exploitation regarding knowledge and resources in SMEs are necessary in order to increase NPD performance and two activities have to align with EO.

제과$\cdot$제빵분야는 대표적인 내수업종이고 보수적 업종성격이 강하다고 볼 수 있다. 연간 성장률이 $30\~40\%$대의 고성장을 구가하던 과거의 좋은 시기도 있었다. 현재 우리가 처한 $\$1$만 소득에서 $\$2$만 소득으로 가는 길목에서 이 분야는 기호식품으로 완전히 변해 있다고 볼 수 있다. 저성장 내지 마이너스 성장도 올 수 있는 시대에 이미 진입했다고 볼 수 있다. 소비자의 기호를 적극적으로 반영치 못한 제품은 시장에서 생존이 어려운 시대를 이미 맞고 있고, 이러한 현상은 차후 더 심하고 세차게 진행되어 질 것이다. 엄밀히 말해 기존의 제품운영계획 그대로 진행하면 그런 기업은 퇴보하게 되어있다고 생각된다. 또 다른 말로 표현하면 이제는 제과$\cdot$제빵 산업은 과감한 변신이 없다면 이미 사양산업화 되어지고 있다고도 볼 수 있다. 과감한 변신은 무엇일까? 소비자 욕구를 정확히 파악하고 이에 부응한 제품운영계획을 충실하게 세워 시행하는 것이다. 세부적으로는, (1) 제품내용물에 좋은 기능성을 도입시키는 것이다. 소위 건강에 좋다는 각종 원료성분들을 사용한 제품을 개발하여서 생산, 판매하는 전략이다. (2) 제품의 포장의 질을 좋게 하고 고급화 시킬 필요가 있다고 본다. BT를 응용한 첨단 포장기술 도입실행이 필요하다. 소비자에게 좋은 이미지를 줄 수 있고, 포장본래의 기능 제품보호가 완벽해야 하고 사용하기에 편리하여야 한다는 것이다. (3) 외국 제품들과의 경쟁은 필수적이다. 가공식품 분야는 이제 거의 $100\%$ 시장이 개방된 상태를 맞고 있다. 외국의 고기능성 내지 고급화제품들과의 경쟁은 피할수 없는 현실을 맞고 있다. 외국시장의 정보를 면밀히 분석하고 이에 대한 대응전략은 물론 더 나아가서 외국제품을 능가 할 경쟁력있는 제품개발이 필요하다고 판단된다. R&D 분야에 투자를 필연적으로 늘여야만 한다. 국내 식품사들의 Ramp;D 투자금액이 구미선진국이 1/10이하 수준에 머물고 있는 것이 오늘날 우리들의 실정이기 때문이다. 일본 등과 FTA 협정쳬결 논의가 국가적과제로 추진되고 있는 현재의 상황에서 이에 대한 우리업계의 대응전략을 지금부터 착수하여야 할 때라고 판단된다. 기본부터 철저히 우리의 장점을 살린 실질적 대응책 마련에 많은 지혜를 발휘할 때 우리 식품산업이 대내외적으로 경쟁력을 가질수 있다고 예상된다. 이러한 상황을 미루어 볼때에 고부가가치 제품을 창출 할 수 있는 여러가지 방안을 기업과 학계 그리고 정부가 종합적으로 강구하여야 할 때인 것이다. 필자는 이에 관한 몇 가지 방안들을 제안하였다.

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.

In the past, because Korean private venture capital firms could get government support and subsidies, they could be survived in the market without having required management capabilities, advanced venture investment techniques, and professional supporting agencies and institutions. However, business environments have changed a lot recently. Now, only through identifying the optimal financial structures(the ratio of debt to equity), Korean private venture capital firms can minimize investment risks and ensure higher profits. Since Modigliani and Miller(1958) criticized the existence of the optimal financial structure, there have been numerous studies on the optimal financial structure of firms. However, there is no empirical study investigating the financial structure of venture capital firms. The purpose of this article is to analyze the relationship between firm characteristics, financial security indies, and financial profit indices of korean private venture capital firms. We gathered the data from various sources, including the web pages and the financial statements for 2003 and 2004. By using the student's t-test and the correlation analysis, we showed that there are differences in the current ratio and the ratio of net profit to net sales between new and old korean private venture capital firms. Even though it is known that korean private venture capital firms does not have enough knowledge and investment technique to compete with global venture capital firms, our result show that old korean private venture capital firms have already built some knowledge and understanding of venture capital investing.

Since the world's economic and political structures have changed, the term 'globlization' has shown up as a dominant power and as a necessity for regional and national development. Each nation is responding to the globalization process economically and politically in various ways. In general, however, the economic response to the globalization is economic restructuring from the Fordist industries to 'flexible specialization'. And the political response to the globalization is 'global localization' as a new type of local politics(i.e., local policy activism or growth-enhancing local development policies). The crisis of Fordism shifted the role of local governments towards more involovement with local economic development. Local governments are mobilizing for loca economic development, they are taken into a process of institutional change that tends to redefine their responsibilities inside the state. Local governments thus tend to act as an entrepreneur in order to restructure theiir local economies and to compete with other national and international regions. State restructuring towards enerepreneurialism and efficient regional policy pursuing a pro-growth coalition trategy is chosen as a new mode of regulation for the post-Fordism at the local level. The flexible specialization as the post-Fordist economy and the local government as an entrepreneur are the global choice for globalization and a post-Fordist society. The paper focuses on the regulation theory which comprises the political economic perspective on resturcturing. Economic restructuring and state restructuring will be discussed in detail. And the paper tries to combine the economic globalization and the global localization as economic and political responses to globalization.

From the perspective of an entrepreneur, one of the most important factors for understanding the inherent limitations of a startup, reducing the risk of failure, and succeeding is the composition of the talent, that is, the founding team. Therefore, a common concern experienced by entrepreneurs in the pre-entrepreneurship stage or the early stage of startup is the choice between independent startups and co-founding start-up. Nonetheless, in Korea, the share of independent entrepreneurship is significantly higher than that of co-founding start-up. On the other hand, focusing on the fact that many successful global innovative companies are in the form of co-founding start-up, the success factors of co-founding start-up were examined. Most of the related preceding studies are studies that identify the capabilities and characteristics of individual entrepreneurs as factors influencing the survival and success of entrepreneurship, and there is a lack of research on partnerships, that is, co-founding start-up, which are common in the field of entrepreneurship ecosystems. Therefore, this study attempted a multi-case study through in-depth interviews, collection of relevant data, analysis of contextual information, and consideration of previous studies targeting co-founders of domestic startups that succeeded in opportunistic startups. Through this, a model for deriving the phased characteristics and key success factors of co-founding start-up was proposed. As a result of the study, the key element of the preliminary start-up stage was 'opportunity', and the success factors were 'opportunity recognition through entrepreneur's experience' and 'idea development'. The key element in the early stages of start-up is "start-up team," and the success factor is "trust and complement of start-up team," and synergy is shown when "diversity and homogeneity of start-up team" are harmonized. In addition, conflicts between co-founders may occur in the early stages of start-ups, which has a large impact on the survival of start-ups. The conflict between the start-up team could be overcome through constant "mutual understanding and respect through communication" and "clear division of work and role sharing." It was confirmed that the core element of the start-up growth stage was 'resources', and 'securing excellent talent' and 'raising external funds' were important factors for success. These results are expected to overcome the limitations of start-up companies, such as limited resources, lack of experience, and risk of failure, in entrepreneurship studies, and prospective entrepreneurs preparing for a start-up in a situation where the form of co-founding start-up is attracting attention as one of the alternatives to increase the success rate. It has implications for various stakeholders in the entrepreneurial ecosystem.

In order to survive the on-going natural resource war, Korea needs various efforts such as enhancing self-exploitation ratio, increasing the supply of new-reuse energy, strengthening cooperation with resource rich countries. Central Asian countries are geometrically far away from Korea. However, Korea should try to develop political, economic and ethnic relationship with those countries into much higher dimension to secure various natural resources. Major countries including U.S., EU. Japan and China are approaching Central Asian countries with long term perspective. Improving country-image through enlargement of ODA is the first concern of those countries. Korea should try to follow their practices. Government should try to improve Korea's image in the first place and lead economic cooperation with very detailed supportive measures to induce Korean firms' investment into the Central Asian countries. In the due process, a lot of information about those countries' political climate, social situation, ethnical composition, major religions, educational system, current state and structure of economies and industries, etc should be made available to Korean firms.
