최근 대학교 내 창업친화적 학사제도의 활성화 등의 정책적 노력과 지원에 따라 다양한 형태의 창업교과목 신설 및 운영이 이뤄지고 있다. 일반적인 정보전달 위주의 창업교육보다 실제 창업가에게 요구되는 다양한 역량과 문제해결 능력 등을 체득할 수 있는 체험형 창업강좌가 교육의 효과에 더 긍정적인 역할을 하고 있음은 여러 연구에서 밝혀진 바 있다. 창업교육의 대표적 학자인 Michael H. Morris(2014)에 의하면 창업교육은 학생들의 역량 개발을 기준으로 설계되고 평가되어야 하며, 기업가에게 필요한 역량 강화를 위해서는 모의 창업 시뮬레이션을 포함한 다양한 과제, 협업활동, 체험학습 요소 등을 접목시킨 몰입적 참여형 체험학습으로 커리큘럼을 구성해야만 기업가적 역량을 향상시킬 수 있다고 제시하였다. 본 연구는 대학교 내 창업교육 유형을 실전형, 혼합형, 특강형으로 구분하여 창업교육 수업유형에 따른 창업의지 영향요인인 교육 만족도, 자기효능감, 기회인식, 창의성의 차이를 비교 분석하였다. 아울러 창업교육의 수업유형이 교육 수강 후 창업의지 영향요인과 창업의지에 미치는 조절효과에 대해 실증분석을 실시하였다. 본 연구결과는 창업교육이 지향해야 체험중심의 창업교육 표준모델의 제안하고, 창업교육 효과에 대한 연구 확산에 기여할 수 있을 것이다.

세계적으로 창업 생태계가 구축되면서 기술창업 분야가 두각을 보이고 있다. 기술창업은 기술력을 통한 지속력뿐 아니라 혁신적으로 변화를 진행시키므로 기술에 대한 투자 동향을 날이갈수록 높아지고 있다. 하지만 기술이 발전하면서 함께 주목되고 있는 분야가 사회적 가치를 가지고 있는 소셜벤처이다. 특히 UN에서 발표한 지속가능한 발전목표(SDGs)의 경우 필수적으로 사업 비즈니스 모델적으로 채택된 분야를 갖고 있어야하며 비재무적성과를 판단하는 기준인 ESG 또한 필수적인 사회적 가치 요소로 떠오르고 있다. 이러한 흐름 속에서 기술 역량을 내세웠을 때와 사회적 가치를 내세웠을 때 투자자들은 어떤 역량과 특성을 더 선호하며 투자 유무가 결정되는지를 분석해보고자 한다. 결국 기술 역량 또는 사회적 가치 둘중 하나를 내세운다는 것은 기업의 이미지를 나타내는것과 같은 의미이다. 이에 기술역량과 사회적 가치가 기업이미지를 유능 또는 따뜻함 중 어떻게 나타나는지 알아보고 투자 유무에 미치는 영향을 보고자 한다. 본 연구에서는 기술창업 기업 기술 범위를 인공지능(AI), 빅데이터, 사물인터넷(IoT), 바이오(Bio)로 총 4개로 분류하였다. 기술 창업의 기술범위를 독립변수로 설정하였으며 기술창업에서 기술역량 또는 사회적 특성을 내세웠을 때 기업이미지가 유능하게 보여지는지 따뜻하게 보여지는지를 알아보고자 한다. 기업이미지가 유능함 또는 따뜻함으로 비춰졌을 때 벤처투자에서 투자 유무가 결정되는지를 검증하고자 한다. 검증 방법에서는 벤처투자자가 아닌 창업교육을 이수하는 대학생들을 대상으로 모의투자를 통해 연구를 진행하고자 한다.

Recently, many start-up failures occur as the number of attempts to start a business increases in a social atmosphere that encourages start-up. In particular, young entrepreneurs have a lower survival rate than general entrepreneurs because young entrepreneurs are challenging just with a simple idea to overcome the difficulties of employment while lacking prior knowledge and experience of business. Therefore, the reason for the failure of start-up is lack of preparation for start-up and lack of entrepreneurship. The purpose of this study is to develop a measurement tool to build a basic framework for entrepreneurship development and start - up preparation activities for young people. To develop an entrepreneurship measurement tool, researchers developed a preliminary question through qualitative research methods such as literature research, focus group interview, and expert verification. After that, researchers surveyed 102 entrepreneurs using quantitative research method and to verify the construct validity of the measurement tool, the final entrepreneurship measurement tool was completed through exploratory factor analysis and confirmatory factor analysis. The entrepreneurship measurement tool developed through this research process consists of 7 components and 15 measurement items. First, in the step of 'confirming entrepreneurial intention', two items of 'self-analytic competence', three items of 'ability of establishing start-up philosophy'are contained. Second, in the step of 'drawing up a start-up model', two items are contained in each category such as, 'ability of eliciting entrepreneurial idea,' 'ability of analyzing idea validity,' 'competence of planning a venture start-up model'. Third, in the step of 'planning the venture start-up,' two items are contained in each category such as, 'business-plan presentation competency,' 'ability of implementing organizational system.'. The measurement tool of entrepreneurship is meaningful as it could help young entrepreneur find out their lacking competence in preparing their start-ups and strengthen necessary competences by measuring their own entrepreneurship. Rather in the entrepreneurship education, basic data that can diagnose the entrepreneurship of young entrepreneurs is provided.

This study is about the effect of the founder's self-efficacy on the sales of the founding company by focusing on the factors that are currently emphasized in the founding education. In particular, this paper starts from the consciousness of the problem that the education that is being implemented to achieve the purpose of successful start-up among various government-based start-up support projects is failing to produce many start-up failures. Entrepreneurs cannot be assessed by objective financial data, but there is a high degree of uncertainty that should be determined based on their personal and learning abilities. In addition, many previous studies, which are likely to be successful when there is a high self-efficacy in a specific field due to the influence of factors such as personal experience or learning, will answer the direction of support for start-up companies. This study focuses on the impact of the founder's self-efficacy on the sales of the founding firms, especially the sales that are the key to the survival of the founding firms. This study has six major studies. First, to analyze whether the self-efficacy of entrepreneurs with respect to entrepreneurship affects the sales of entrepreneurs. Second, to analyze whether the self-efficacy of entrepreneurs with respect to market orientation affects the sales of entrepreneurs. Analysis of whether the founder's self-efficacy affects the sales of the founding firms. Fourth, analysis of whether the founder's self-efficiency affects the sales of the founding firms' understanding of management environment changes. An analysis of whether efficacy affects the sales of a start-up company, and sixth, an analysis of whether the founder's self-efficacy of business model building ability affects the sales of a start-up company. As a result of the empirical analysis, this study found that the self-efficacy of entrepreneurs on product differentiation capability and business model building capacity had a positive influence on the sales of entrepreneurs. The self-efficacy had a positive effect on self-efficacy, and the customer orientation had a positive effect on self-efficacy on business model building capacity. Also, it was confirmed that a path exists between the components of self-efficacy and that self-efficacy through the path has a positive effect on the sales of the start-up company. Therefore, the results of this study suggest the implications of establishing such a path and strengthening self-efficacy to create the survival and start-up performance of a start-up company if the goal of the start-up company is to survive when implementing various support projects for the start-up company.

This paper suggested a plan to increase the start-up survival rate by identifying independent variables that significantly affect start-up success through analysis of the founder's internal and external factors. As a result of this study, it was found that internal factors (financial ability, risk sensitivity) and external factors (start-up environment, start-up support policy) had a direct positive (+) effect on start-up success. Meanwhile, self-efficacy for business models partially mediated the relationship between factors(financing ability, risk sensitivity, start-up environment and start-up support policies) and start-up success. Self-efficacy for business models fully mediated the relationship between factors(start-up expertise and challenge spirit) and start-up success. Finally, trust in business models partially mediated the relationship between factors(start-up expertise, risk sensitivity, and start-up support policies) and start-up success. And the trust in business models fully mediated the factors(the spirit of challenge, start-up environment) and start-up success.
