This study addresses the question of how to design the research system for national R&D programs that aim to promote creative innovation. This paper attempts to analyze the case of Creative Research Initiatives(CRI), a new national R&D program recently launched by the Ministry of Science and Technology of Korea. CRI is a strategic program intended to shift the national R&D paradigm from imitative innovation to creative innovation. The key features of the research system of the program include: a research-centered system, long-term research funding, the sunset approach, a dynamic and flexible research organization, and a centralized research system. This paper suggests theoretical rational of these key features based on the literature review on creative innovation. Based on an analysis of the results of implementing the CRI in 1997, this paper also examines how the research system design is reflected and embodied in the program implementation process. Finally, policy implications and future research directions are also discussed.

The creative class is the class of workers whose job is to create meaningful new forms. Recently, much attention has been focused on the role of the creative class in regional development. Many policy makers have invested to amenities to attract more creative class into their cities or regions for regional economic growth. However, there are only a few studies about the migration of the creative class in Korea. The purpose of this study is to make an analysis of the movement of the creative class by using the 17th Korean Labor & Income Panel Study. According to empirical results, the creative class are more likely to move than the non-creative class. The characteristic of creative class who moved is related to married man aged 20s and 30s without own house. Also, there is the difference between determinants of migration of the creative class and the non-creative class. It was founded that the most important determinants of migration of the creative class are housing related reasons such as home ownership and job reasons. Relationship, convenient facilities are not important factors when the creative class make a decision to move.

The study aims to synthesize the discussion of the innovation district and suggest an alternative to the governance system of the innovation district. Cluster policies that focus on industrial specialization, networking, value chains, and industrial ecosystems have shown some problems and limits in advanced industrial economies. The innovation district, suitable for the era of urban innovation, convergence of industry, housing, leisure, and related variety, emphasizes cooperation through the convergence of various innovations, workshops and industries, and communities. It is important to build a quintuple helix based on cooperative governance through public-private partnerships, integrate the physical and cultural atmosphere, and service industries that strengthen the place prestige. Beyond the industrial aspect, innovation districts can facilitate changes in urban amenities and lifestyles and creative atmosphere, such as diversity, lifestyle, charms, and openness, and promote social vitality and economic interactions. The governance of innovative districts can promote inter-organizational exchanges, and combinations. When knowledge is created through exchanges between companies, it also affects changes in the governance system, evolving from a rigid and centralized system to an open, dynamic, and organic system. Through the innovation policy, the existing Central Business Districts (CBD) can be able to be transformed into a Central Lifestyle Districts (CLD).

Up to present science and technology (S&T) policy in Korea has focused on producing academic papers and patents through the increase of investment on research and development (R&D). However, as the role of science and technology on boosting national economy has been emphasized and the current government has established 'creative economy' as a main policy agenda, 'technology commercialization' has been moving onto the center of S&T policy. Technology commercialization policy encourages R&D outcomes of public R&D institutions to be utilized in private firms for their new business development, and this concept is in line with out-bound open innovation, in the sense that it involves the flow of technological knowledge from public R&D institutions to private firms. Based on this understanding, this paper analyses government technology commercialization programs and attempts to suggest policy implications. The results suggest that future technology commercialization policy (1) be specialized in a way of reflecting the characteristics of each government ministry, (2) strongly support technology licensing-out, (3) strengthen the linkage between each programs, and (4) nurture expert groups, such as accelerators who can help and foster technology start-ups.

지적 창의경영은 지식의 공유와 생성으로 나눌 수 있는 데, 지식 생성 분야에서 창의성 연구에서 나온 창의적 문제해결 방법론이다. 이 글에서는 공학 분야에 주로 사용되는 TRIZ 이론을 비공학 분야와 비즈니스 분야, 지적 창조경영의 지식 생성 분야에서 응용사례와 활용 가능성을 기술하였다. TRIZ는 공학분야의 전세계 특허와 기술혁신 사례들을 분석하여 개발하였으나, 이 창의적 문제해결 이론은 러시아 공산주의 사회라는 특수한 상황에서 개발되어서 경영과 비즈니스를 다루고 연구하는 일에는 많은 어려움이 있었다. 그러나 러시아가 개방되면서 최근 TRIZ의 다양하고 강력한 기법들을 비공학 분야와 선진기업 경영이나 비즈니스에 접목시켜 연구되고 있다. TRIZ연구는 변화와 경쟁이 기본이라고 여겨지는 비지니스 활동에서 강력한 문제 해결능력과 아이디어를 가지도록 도와주고 있다. 이 글에서 비즈니스에서 성공과 실패라는 모순을 일으키는 문제를 고전적인 TRIZ의 모순 해소 매트릭스와 비슷한 비즈니스 매트릭스를 이용해서 해결되는 선진 기업의 창조적 경영 응용 사례를 살펴 보고 향후 활용 가능성을 연구하였다.

With the introduction and expansion of 'maker movement', maker culture captured attention and saw itself as an emerging culture. This study aims to analyze published books, policy report, columns and news articles related to maker culture through the perspective of critical discourse analysis. Maker movement led by the government gives meaning to the maker culture as the force of 'creative economy' that can overcome the economic crisis. Following this meaning making, one-man digital fabrication start-ups have been actively promoted by government policies. In the case of Seoul, it criticizes government led maker movement that only focuses on economy and institutionalizes maker movement by focusing on the maker culture's aspect as 'digital social innovation' that can resolve social problems. In the world of art, it tries to rediscover the value craft, that is, 'creative craftsman'. Moreover, resistance movement that tries to fight against dominant technology structure through constructing 'critical making' was also spotted. Nonetheless, it is rather untimely to definitely find dominant discourse's power effect in reality and sign of rupture in dominant structure as the result of resisting discourse's struggle. Thus, maker movement is the field of struggle where an ongoing clash can be found: between discourse strategy that tries to make maker culture a social or economic asset by combining with dominant power structure, and alternating or resisting practice of signification that focuses on its cultural techno-political potential.

IT와 산업간 융합이 가속화되고 있다. 그 범위도 확대되어 일부 산업에서 모든 산업으로, 국민생활 깊숙이 스며들며 IT가 일상화되고 있다. 이에 따라 IT와 비IT의 경계가 사라지면서 완제품 경쟁력의 핵심으로 IT부품과 소프트웨어(SW)가 부각되고 있다. 또한 IT기기와 완제품의 구분이 모호해지고 하드웨어(HW) 소프트웨어(SW)를 최적화하는 제조기술 역량도 중요한 경쟁력으로 부상하고 있다. 이러한 시대 흐름은 글로벌 IT시장 구조에 영향을 미쳐, 과거 개별 기업간 경쟁이 생태계간 경쟁으로 변화하고 있다. 그간 우리나라 IT산업은 뛰어난 하드웨어의 경쟁력을 기반으로 글로벌 IT생태계에 적극 참여하였으나 취약한 소프트웨어 역량, 인력부족 등 복합적 한계로 인해 주도적 역할 수행은 미흡하였다. 따라서 우리나라 IT산업이 글로벌 경쟁우위를 강화하고, 미래 환경변화에 적극 대응하기 위해서는 우리의 장점을 강화해 나가면서 부족한 부분의 경쟁력을 끌어 올려야 할 것이다. 이를 위해 창의와 혁신을 기반으로 하는 다양한 창조기업이 세계적인 기업으로 커 나갈 수 있도록 IT를 새로운 성장동력으로 만들어 일자리를 창출하고 창조경제의 꽃을 피울 수 있는 방안을 제시하고자 한다. 특히 하드웨어와 소프트웨어의 균형발전과 이를 통한 융합역량 강화, 해외의존도가 높은 부문의 원천기술 개발을 추진하면서, 클라우드 빅데이터 산업을 주도해 나감으로써 세계 최고의 IT강국으로 도약해 나갈 것이다.

The main point related to the entrepreneurial ecosystem is that in an environment where a good entrepreneurial ecosystem has been established, startup companies can generate good results. From this perspective, this study examined the perception of entrepreneurs regarding the entrepreneurial ecosystem in the Daegu by conducting an analysis of importance and satisfaction towards the Daegu entrepreneurial ecosystem, using the results of the Innovation Entrepreneurial Ecosystem Establishment and Operation Project of the Daegu Creative Economy Innovation Center, which is a key member of the entrepreneurial ecosystem. The analysis results showed that the importance and satisfaction of the entrepreneurial infrastructure were classified as high, while the importance and satisfaction of finance (investment and support) and securing human resources were shown to be low. Based on the results of this study, we confirmed the perception of entrepreneurs regarding the entrepreneurial ecosystem in Daegu and provided implications for improving the regional entrepreneurial ecosystem and policy directions.
