This study aims at investigating the effectiveness of SME's R&D system empirically. Specifically, this study analyze the relationships among R&D inputs(R&D investment, R&D human resource management), process(R&D planning, external network, internal cooperation), and output(technological innovation). A questionnaire was developed to measure the above variables. To test these relations, data were collected from the small and medium-sized IT firms located in Daegu-Kyungbuk region. The survey data of 154 firms were integrated as the empirical base for testing the relations. Most respondents were from the managers. Structural equation modeling analyses were used to examine the relations. Major results are as follows: Firstly, R&D HRM was positively and significantly influenced on the R&D planning. Secondly, R&D planning was positively and significantly affected on the external network, internal cooperation, and technological innovation. Thirdly, the both relations between R&D investment and R&D planning, and external network and technological innovation were not significant statistically. These results suggest the following implications. First, R&D human resource management is very important for IT SMEs. Secondly, internal cooperation mediates R&D inputs and technological innovation by approaching the other department's unique resources and by sharing the cost of new resource development. Several future researches need to overcome the limitations of this research. First, this study's sample was based on the small and medium-sized IT firms just located in Daegu-Kyungbuk region. This limitation may imply that empirical results can not represent overall small and medium-sized firm's situations. Therefore, future research needs to include different samples. Secondly, this study depends on the latitudinal study.

본 연구는 대표적인 지식기반산업인 생명의료산업클러스터인 첨단의료복합단지 조성정책의 형성과정을 분석하고자 한다. 첨단의료복합단지는 미래첨단산업육성정책, 국가산업진흥정책 그리고 지역균형발전정책이 첨예하게 대립했던 첨단의료산업 발전정책과 그 산물로서 2005년부터 시작한 첨단의료복합단지의 건립과정에 대한 경과를 분석하여 그 과정, 절차 그리고 결과를 분석해 보고자 한다. 첨단의료복합단지를 둘러싼 정책형성과정에 대한 분석은 단지 하나의 이벤트나 사건으로 머물지 않고 우리나라의 미래첨단산업정책, 국가신성장동력육성정책, 및 지역균형발전정책 등과 밀접히 관련되어 있다는 데 그 의의를 두고자 한다. 분석결과 첨단 의료산업분야의 정책형성 과정은 여러 정책행위자들이 간여하였다. 특히 해당 정책형성과정은 경제발전과정에서 보여준 한국 산업정책 고유특성이 반영된 합리적 행위자로서의 정부역할이 강하게 나타났다. 아울러 분석결과 다양한 정책행위자의 역동적인 역할이 정책형성의 여러 지점에 반영되었다는 점을 조명하였다.

번호이동성(Number Portability)은 전화가입자가 사업자, 지역 및 서비스를 바꾸어도 기존에 사용하고 있는 자신의 전화번호를 그대로 유지할 수 있도록 하는 제도이다. 경쟁적인 측면에서 이동전화 번호이동성(Mobile Number Portability: MNP)은 로밍(roaming)서비스와 함께 이동전화시장의 소매 가입부문의 경쟁을 촉진할 수 있다. 우리나라의 경우 2001년 1월 8일에 개정된 전기통신 사업법에서 번호이동성의 국내 도입과 관련된 사항들을 규정하였다. 유선전화 번호이동성의 경우 2003년 말부터 구현이 가능한 지역부터 제공할 예정이며, 이동전화 번호이동성의 경우 3G서비스부터 먼저 실시할 계획으로 복수의 사업자가 3G 서비스를 개시한 이후 6개월 이내부터 도입할 예정이다. 본 연구에서는 호주의 이동전화 번호이동성의 도입사례를 검토하여 국내 이동전화 번호이동성 정책의 수립에 적용될 수 있는 시사점을 도출하고자 한다.

This paper examines the intra-and inter-regional linkages of public research institutes (PRIs) with various innovation actors in Korea. In spite of the general consensus on the role of PRIs as innovation facilitators as well as creators, the attributes of regional spillover effect of knowledge created by PRIs have not been understood completely. Some argue that PRIs play pivotal role in encouraging intra-regional innovation networks through collective learning process. Others argue that PRIs are not necessarily related to intra-regional knowledge transfer, but play more important role in establishing national and international innovation linkages. This study attempts to figure out the current status of innovation linkages of Korean PRIs and to prove how the internal and external attributes of PRIs influence the development of spatial innovation linkages. Furthermore, it also tries to draw policy implication from empirical analysis results.

Innovation clusters have developed a key policy indicator in the level of national competitiveness. Many countries have enhanced their regional competitiveness by fostering innovation clusters at the national, regional, and industrial level. In Korea, the cluster policy has been introduced and employed to a national policy as a means of facilitating a regional innovation for over two decades. This study analyze that the changes of the institutional, physical and social configurations of innovation clusters. In particular, we identified configuration factors which are the growth and development impact factors of individual subjects from the case study of the Daedeok Innopolis. Also, the factors are derived and identified priorities of the configuration factors by using Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method in long term perspective. As a result, we provide the growth of individual innovation subjects, as well as the growth of the cluster caused by the cyclic causality among configuration factors. Also, we can suggest that innovation policy from priorities of configuration factors for innovation cluster which the priorities have lessons for policy implementation and new cluster policy agenda in Korea, in specific, the Daedeok Innopolis.

This paper presents on the project to design an academy for high-growth businesses which is taking place in the East Midlands of the UK, sponsored by the Regional Development Agency (RDA). The research aims to design and commission a learning organisation which will stimulate and support entrepreneurial leadership and management skills in growing companies. The paper attempts to build a policy framework for a learning organisation which is centred on a community of high-growth firms' owners and managers acting as a support network. This approach is compared with existing high growth development programmes and recommendations are made for the development, funding and implementation of high-growth support programmes.

We examined the relationship between innovation capability of R&D and the firm's performance by mainly comparing regional strategy industry with non-regional strategy industry. Also, this analysis involved comparing the relationship by regional strategy industry. For the purpose of this study, we divided innovation capability of R&D into input, process and output. The first of main results in this study was that regional strategic industry was significantly higher than non-regional strategy industry in innovation capability of R&D with the exception of the CEO's mind for technological innovations. However, we found no significant difference in the firm's performance. Second, in the results of comparing innovation capability of R&D and the firm's performance by regional strategy industry, electronic-information equipment industry was significantly superior to other industries. Third, it was found that the relationship between innovation capability of R&D and the firm's performance was different by regional strategy industry. Also, R&D manpower and R&D process were more significant factors affecting the firm's performance rather than R&D input and output.

This study emphasizes that the survival strategy of universities should be a co-evolution strategy based on ecological thinking. Therefore, the purpose of the research is to present a theoretical framework for dividing the university innovation ecosystem into four stages and building a co-evolution strategy for each step, as universities play a prominent role in regional innovation ecosystems. Thus, our research method focused on literature research, and the theoretical framework for the university innovation ecosystem used Moore's Enterprise Ecosystem Model (1996). The university's ecological innovation strategy is divided into four stages of development, and a step-by-step co-evolution strategy is presented. Findings are summarized as follows. The pioneering stage involves the creation of values of the university-led innovation ecosystem. The expansion stage focuses on the establishment of critical mass. The authority stage covers maintaining authority and bargaining power. The renewal stage features continuous performance improvement. In particular, this theoretical model of the university-regional innovation ecosystem is meaningful in that it provides a theoretical basis for enhancing the effectiveness of government financial support projects, and for individual universities, it provides a framework for strategies suitable for their ecosystem building process.
