When discussing a company's technology management, manufacturing companies' innovation strategy is vital because it is connected to each company's competitive advantage in various ways, such as technology acquisition, R&D, and product innovation. The research on manufacturing companies' innovation strategies has been studied in various ways, such as performance and resources for innovation; however, very little research has been done to synthesize existing research outcomes. In this study, we conduct a systematic literature review of 51 articles related to manufacturing companies' innovation strategies. By doing so, we synthesized the results of extant studies based on three perspectives: the research target, the research focus, and the types of innovation strategies. In addition, I derived the unique properties of the research on manufacturing companies' innovation strategies. The analysis indicated that Korea's research on manufacturing companies' innovation strategies had been unequally distributed. Based on this, we suggested research agendas for future research on manufacturing companies' innovation strategies.

This study analyzed the technology innovation strategies of knowledge-based companies in the semiconductor IP industry. The theoretical approaches of this study are to i) the creation, protection and utilization of knowledge and innovation, ii) value creation from innovation, iii) modularity, timing of market entry, and the emergence and competition of standard (dominant design). Based on the theoretical analysis, I presented exploratory research hypotheses. Ultimately, this study examined the proposed hypotheses by conducting case studies on the technology innovation strategy of two leading knowledge-based companies in the semiconductor IP industry: ARM and INTEL. First, knowledge-based companies entering in the early stage of the technology cycle select the vertically-integrated technology strategy because of lower access to complementary knowledge assets, and maintain the vertically-integrated technology strategy despite the environmental change-driven differentiation of industry's value chain. Second, knowledge-based companies entering in the later stage of the technology cycle prefer the contract-based technology strategy because of its increased accessibility to complementary knowledge assets, and choose a different path of innovation strategies depending on whether their asset has the feature of discontinuity or not.

기업의 성장동력 전략으로 내부 개발역량에 의존하는 자생적/유기적(Organic Growth) 방식과 전략적 제휴나 인수/합병을 통해 외부 자원을 활용하는 비유기적 성장(Inorganic Growth) 방식을 나눌수 있다. 하지만 이러한 혁신전략 안에는 성공과 실패가 공존하고 있으며 특히 최근에는 조직내 혁신을 달성하기 위해 연구 및 개발, 상용화에 이르기까지 혁신 과정을 개방하여, 외부 자원을 적극활용함으로써 혁신의 비용을 줄이고 성공가능성을 높여 부가가치 창출을 극대화하는 혁신활동중 하나로 개방형혁신(Open innovation)을 많이 활용 하고 있다. 하지만 더 나아가 사업의 지속 가능한 성장을 위해서는 External Organic Innovation을 같이 활용하는 새로운 혁신전략 활동 전개가 필요하다. 그래서 본 연구에서는 이러한 혁신 전략들의 성공-실패 사례분석을 통해 4차 산업혁명시대에 맞는 혁신전략을 살펴보고자 한다.

This paper reviewed outline of Strategic Niche Management(SNM) and its usefulness and limits as policy tool. SNM is based on Multi Level Perspective(MLP) that traces technological innovation and makes transition of lock-in socio-technical system. This approach is one of systematical then traditional one, market failure approach. SNM had get a attention not only as a analytical frame of technological development, but also tool of radical innovation, although its limits of theoretical and empirical immaturity. SNM could provide a new perspective to analysis and action within urgent needs of alternative innovation policy for aging society, news energy policy for sustainable and disaster policy in danger society.

The objectives of this study is to analyze the impact of open information innovation which consisted of external technology acquisition and external technology exploitation on export performance by integrating with strategic alliance factors. This study empirically analyzed six hypotheses in 201 sample using the PLS (Partial Least Square) of the structural equation model to verify the moderating effects of organizational culture on the relationship among open information innovation, strategic alliance and export performance. As a result, external technology acquisition dose not affect strategic alliances. On the other hand, external technology exploitation has a positive impact on strategic alliances. Strategic alliances also have a positive impact on export performance. As a result of the moderating effect analysis, the interaction between organizational culture and external technology acquisition has positively influenced strategic alliances. In addition, the moderating effect of organizational culture and external technology exploitation has a significant effect on strategic alliances. However, moderating effect of organizational culture and strategic alliance dose not affect export performance. This study has a contribution to the analysis of the moderating effects of organizational culture. In the future, integrated analysis of open information innovation and external factors is needed.

Firms should seek greater profits and corporate growth through new businesses. New businesses contribute realizing creative economy that creates good jobs, and expanding the company by securing new markets and creating new profits and growth. However, new business is risky management decision-making to have a high failure rate because it involves the adaptation of new business environment and the burden of new investments, including the uncertainty of success in business. Therefore, innovation strategies play important roles for the new business entry, using product innovation, process innovation, business model innovation, disruptive innovation, and strategic innovation, etc. and company will get huge economic results by pushing them into successful business. It is essential that innovation strategy and IT development strategy along with business strategy of a firm are linked, and their strategic alignment is considered to be a critical success factor for new business success. Hyundai Heavy Industries(HHI) pursued marine engine business for the development of precision machinery industry and shipbuilding industry of Korea, and the company recognized the importance of new business strategy, innovation strategy, and IT strategy inter-linked, and pushed strategic alignment boldly. As a result, HHI won the competition in European and Japanese engine manufacturers and climbed into the world's largest engine manufacturer. This study suggests investigating and analyzing a case that HHI succeeded in marine engine business expansion using strategic innovation strategy as a way of the introduction of CNC machine tools and the development of HEMAPT system.

For this study, a survey was conducted with the employees of small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) located in Seoul and in Gyeonggi province. In the end, a total of 328 valid questionnaires were received and used in the analysis. The data of this study were analyzed using two statistics programs: SPSS Statistics 22.0 and AMOS 22.0. As for the method to verify the hypothesis, we used a structural equation model. The key findings of this study are as follows. First, the results of correlation analysis between management strategy factors, innovation activities, and business performance showed that the factors that were at a higher level of correlation were the technology differentiation strategies, marketing differentiation strategies, and the cost-driven strategy. Second, the strategic management factors that influenced innovation activities were in the following order: marketing differentiation, technology differentiation, and the cost-driven strategy, while the valid factors that affected business performance with significance were only the marketing differentiation strategy and the cost-driven strategy. Third, while the analysis showed that the technology differentiation strategy did not have a direct effect on business performance, it was shown that the relationship between the technology differentiation strategy and business performance was completely mediated by innovation activities.
