Nowadays the role of region has been increased, as knowledge, science and technology become important in economic development. This paper argues that a system approach is needed to enhance regional S&T capabilities. Under the this approach, we can identify a concept of regional innovation systems as sub-systems of a national innovation system. This paper investigates Korean regional innovation systems based on R&D budget of regional governments. According to this paper, Korean regional governments' R&D investment is very insufficient. There were no co-relationship between regional governments' fiscal autonomy from the central government and their R&D investment. This paper argues that such a poor investment will restrict the future development of Korean regional innovation systems. Therefore, this paper suggests some strategic options for the development of regional innovation systems as follows. First, regional governments should increase their R&D budget. Second, their R&D efforts should be related with their specific industrial sectors. Third, they should target not only to create new promising industrial sectors but also to enhance technological capabilities of existing sectors. Fourth, their target group should be small and medium-sized enterprises. Finally, regional governments should adopt small and incremental approach to improve their innovation systems.

The Korean Government has recently been pushing ahead with a variety of programs to support regional innovation. This paper examines whether the variety of regional innovation programs of the government are efficiently managed and effectively functioning in regions. To make the assessment, questionnaire surveys were executed targeting innovation actors in fourteen regions and evaluated the efficiency of government regional programs. Key points of assessment were the appropriateness of the program organization and the efficiency of program management for the effectiveness of program results. It was found that the appropriateness of the program organization and the efficiency of program management were related positively to performance of programs, but the performance of regional innovation programs overall was not high. Some problems were found in program organization and program management such as the overlapping of program objectives and functions, the inadequate synergy among programs, insufficient reflection of the needs of industry in planning, the overlapping investment in facilities and equipment, and low effectiveness of evaluation.

This study is estimates telephone service demand based on empirical studies of telecommunication service demand model. First, the telephone charge(call price index) by each location and subscription fee bring about a negative effect to telephone distribution rate: while the other explanatory variables bring about a positive effect. Second, the flexibility of telephone charge in A location(relevant location) and the flexibility between the distance of A location and B location are negative values, while the flexibility of other explanatory variables is represented in a positive value. This means that the long distance call numbers from A location to B location are in inverse proportion against the phone charge(call price index) of A location and against the distance between A location and the distance of other locations except A location, while they are in direct proportion with an average call number per minute from A location to other locations except A location, and also with subscription numbers of A location, other subscribers in locations other than A location, and the total expenditures of A location.

The venture firms originating from the government-financed research institutes of Taeduk Science Town play a dominant role in Taejon. Those venture fm have the following characteristics. First, they are innovative in the growth stage, although not so innovative in the beginning stage. Second, they still largely depend on the domestic market because of their import-substitution strategy. Third, they mostly lack administrative capabilities. Finally, the infrastructure of venture firms is not good in spite of many supporting government policies. The efficient management of the existing business incubators, the establishment of special venture capital, and continuous supports by the incubating organizations should be warranted to encourage the spin-offs from the government- financed research institutes.

신정부의 탈원전 정책에 의해 급속하게 원자력계를 둘러싼 환경이 변하고 있다. 지금까지의 정부가 추진해온 원자력 중심의 전원계획이 신재생에너지 확대를 위한 계획으로 변화되어 가고 있다. 그리고 이러한 정부 정책 추진의 중심에는 매우 높은 대통령 지지율이 기반이 되고 있다. 하지만 여러 여론 조사 결과를 살펴보면 대통령은 약 65% 내외의 지지를 기록함에도 불구하고 원자력 활용에 대해서는 찬반 의견이 매우 팽팽하다. 즉, 원자력에 대한 이슈가 최근 에너지, 경제 문제가 아닌 정치 이슈가 된 상황에서도 원자력에 대해 지지를 보여주는 집단이 존재한다는 것을 뜻한다. 하지만 원자력을 지지하는 일반인들이 정치권과 탈핵 시민단체에서 원자력 분야를 소위 '적폐'로 규정하고 '원자력 마피아'로 명명한 상태에서 원자력에 대해 드러내놓고 지지하는 것은 쉽지 않다. 따라서 본 연구는 우리나라의 어떠한 계층에서 원자력을 지지하는지, 즉 'Shy Nuclear'를 찾고 이 지지층들의 특징에 대해서 분석하였다. 지지층 분류를 위해서 머신러닝의 분류분석 기법인 Decision Tree Analysis(의사결정나무) 방법론을 활용하였다. 분석 결과 Shy Nuclear를 결정하는 주 요인은 거주지역으로 나타났다. 아울러 수도권에 거주하고 있는 사무/관리/전문직/퇴직자 집단이 가장 원자력에 높은 호감도(긍정 76.1%)를 보여주었다.

A aim of this study is to show that trust formed among actors in clusters effects on the innovation for firms. This paper finds that trust is not enough formed. firms feel trust in relationship between firms and universities and between firms and research institutes. However, trust not to be formed in relationship between firm and public agencies and between firms and other firms. By mean of the finding, the various network types which can facilitate trust must be made by policy support.

정부는 '한국판 뉴딜 1.0'(2020.7)과 '한국판 뉴딜 2.0'(2021.7)을 발표하여 국가의 새로운 미래를 설계하고자 디지털뉴딜, 그린 뉴딜, 휴먼 뉴딜, 지역균형 뉴딜 분야에 집중 지원 중이다. 이 중 디지털 뉴딜은 사회, 경제 전반에 걸친 디지털화의 확산 및 디지털 신사업 육성이 목표이다. 본 논문에서는 디지털 뉴딜과 관련해 인공지능(AI)과 이동통신(5G) 분야에 대해 국가R&D 지원 현황 등을 분석하였다. 분석 데이터는 2015년부터 2020년까지 NTIS에서 서비스하는 총 61,356건 과제와 총 198,355건 성과정보를 키워드 추출을 통하여 수집하였다. 데이터 분석 결과 각 분야의 과제와 연구비, 논문 성과는 지속적으로 증가하고 있으나, 특허 성과는 최근 소폭 감소하는 것을 알 수 있었다. 정부가 추진하는 한국판 뉴딜 정책의 혁신성장 성과분야에 대해 이용자가 바로 파악할 수 있도록 다양한 분석을 통하여 향후 NTIS에서 서비스할 계획이다.

Despite the fact that Daejeon has excellent technology infrastructures such as government-funded research institutes, Daedeok Innopolis, and KAIST, the infrastructure for initial investment and growth support for technological start-ups is not sufficient. In particular, the amount of venture capital supply in Daejeon is relatively low compared to other innovation infrastructures. The purpose of this study is to suggest the implications of the venture capital ecosystem in Daejeon area through the analysis of what evolution process has been undergoing and what improvements and complementary points are needed in the future. First, the role of public finance system should be strengthened in order to stimulate angel investment and private capital inflows to start-up companies. Second, in order to cultivate investment professionals in the region, it is necessary to grant local funds to local institutions, and to run investment expert training courses in universities. Third, cooperation between related agencies is needed to add accelerator functions to existing incubators and to foster new accelerators. Fourth, in order to expand the role of local governments, it is necessary to establish funds, to open innovation mindset of public officials, and to communicate effectively with the central government. Fifth, basic venture ecosystem infrastructures such as inflow of excellent manpower, prevention of technology deception, improvement of rechallenge environment should be expanded. Sixth, it is necessary to reorganize the step-by-step start-up financing policy of 'Establishment - Growth - Exit - Rechallenge'. This study is meaningful in that it has grasped the current status of venture start-up financial ecosystem in Daejeon, which is changing rapidly. In particular, it is different in that it identifies financial difficulties venture companies in Daejeon and finds ways to utilize existing financial ecosystem efficiently.

This paper analyzes the effects of government-sponsored R&D on firm's employment and management performance, using the panel data of manufacturing firms in the area of Busan, Ulsan and Gyungnam. The paper applies PSM to estimate the treatment effects(ATT) without sample selection bias. The findings show that government-sponsored R&D in the area has positive effects on the participating firms' employment and R&D for several years after completing R&D projects.
