The scientific culture programs of 13 Government-supported Research Institutes in the field of Science and Technology (GRIST) in Daedeok Innopolis are studied and classified according to the activities and operational types of programs conducted by GRIST over the past three years (2017~19). The total 150 scientific and cultural programs of GRIST were operational with annual average of 11.5 programs per institution. Science festival and field trip, as a scientific culture activity, account for 72%. By means of operational entity, the programs were identified as 68(45.3%) for PPOI(Programs Planned and Operated by Institute) and 82(54.7%) for PCPI(Programs Contributed and Participated by Institute). Also the 87.2% of all participants were elementary, middle, high school, and college students and the program for adult participants was none. From this study, we suggest that open lab type of science festival programs, which organized and operated by each GRIST, to inform ongoing and advanced research for public understand of research (PUR) and science concerts for targeting adult audiences.

This paper examines the presence of network structures among convergence technologies focusing on national R&D projects performed by GRIs(Government-sponsored Research Institutes) in Korea. The dataset of convergence technology projects, which were conducted by 24 GRIs over 3 years (2011-2013), are analysed using the network analysis method. In this paper, a convergence technology project is defined as a project that consists of 2 or more then 2 technologies according to the intermediate classification of National Standard Classification of S&T. The research results confirm that convergence researches of government-sponsored research institutes are performed more actively than the entire convergence researches of national R&D projects. Furthermore, technological fields of GRIs' convergence projects are found to be much more varied. This paper also shows that in-house researches are more active than collaborative ones with external organizations. According to the network centrality analysis, it is identified that the network central characteristics of convergence technologies can be classified into internally oriented technologies and externally oriented technologies. Convergence technologies do not just mean simple mixture of different technologies. Therefore Korean government-sponsored research institutes should make more efforts to create convergence research areas which could generate new technologies and industries more effectively than simple multidisciplinary technology researches. From this perspective, some policy suggestions can be derived on the role of government-sponsored research institutes for activating convergence researches through the analysis of status of convergence researches and networks of institutions.

The term research institute spin-offs refers to new firms created by public research institutes. These spin-offs are different from other start-ups in two respects: on the one hand, they should be located in the Special Research and Development Zones and, on the other hand, these firms are supposed to commercialize the results of public R&D activities. These spin-off firms show higher rates of survival and job creation than general new firms, which means that their contribution to economic growth is not negligible. The present study analyzes the factors affecting research institute spin-offs using a random effect panel logit model and negative binomial model. From previous studies, four elements are identified as playing an important role in the commercialization of public R&D through spin-offs, namely their organizational character, research capability, technological character, and geographical location. The empirical results demonstrate that government research institutes with more researchers and patents are more likely to create new firms. In addition, the location of the institutes significantly affects the probability of their creating spin-offs and their number. When the technological stage and TLO size are considered, however, it turns out that the number of researchers and technological stage play important roles in the spin-offs.

본 연구는 과학기술분야 정부출연 연구기관의 자율성과 독립성을 보장하고, 연구기관 간의 협력과 유기적인 연결이라는 정책목표하에 1999년 이후 지금까지 그 목표달성을 위해 정책수단으로 존재하고 있는 연구회제도의 정책변동 사례를 대상으로 하고 있다. 과학기술 연구회는 김대중 정부이후 박근혜 정부까지 네 번의 정권교체기마다 변화과정을 거쳐왔다. 여기서는 그 사례에 Kingdon의 다중흐름모형을 이용하여 각 정부별 정책결정요인과 그 과정을 비교 분석했으며, 그 결과로서 Hogwood & Peters의 정책변동유형을 살펴보았다.
