시대의 흐름에 따라 창업자본주의(entrepreneurial capitalism)의 경향을 보이고 있는 현대사회에서 혁신적인 아이디어와 도전정신을 바탕으로 글로벌 진출을 도모하는 소규모 기업 또는 개인 창업자의 역동적인 창업활동은 창업생태계(Entrepreneurial Ecosystem)에서 새로운 성장 동력 창출로 이어진다. 이러한 창업에 대하여 대학에서 창출된 기업들은 다른 기업들보다 훨씬 높은 성공률을 보이며, 좋은 일자리를 만들고 경제활동을 촉진한다. 이에 따라 우리나라 정부에서도 대학 창업을 촉진하기 위한 노력으로 "대학창업교육 5개년 계획(2013-2017)"과 "2015년도 정부 창업지원 효율화 방안", 그리고 "산학협력 활성화 5개년 기본계획(2016-2020)" 등을 발표하였고, 대학과 연구소 등에서도 대학 창업 활성화에 대한 많은 노력을 기울이고 있지만 여전히 현실적인 한계가 존재한다. 이러한 한계를 극복하기 위한 방안으로 본 연구에서는 대학 창업교육의 체계화를 목적으로 변화하는 대학의 역할과 클러스터(cluster), 그리고 창업교육에 대한 이론을 고찰한다. 또한, 미국 혁신대학의 대표적 사례를 중심으로 창의적인 대학문화의 요인을 살펴보고, '창업 성공'과는 다른 '성공적인 창업'을 목적으로 클러스터 관점의 창업교육에 대한 개념적 프레임워크를 제시하고자 한다. 대학 기술기반의 창업 활성화를 위한 통합적 창업교육 플랫폼 구축의 기조(基調)가 되는 클러스터 관점의 창업교육에 대한 개념적 프레임워크는 관련 이론과 사례를 바탕으로 창의적 문화 구축과 효과적인 혁신 창출에 필요한 인재, 기술, 관용이라는 세 가지 요소의 역할이 중심이 되어 창업교육에 수반되어야 할 지역의 창업자원, 창업정책, 그리고 리더십의 클러스터링을 강조하고 있다. 이를 바탕으로 향후 후속연구에서는 통합적 창업교육 플랫폼 차원에서 창업보육센터, 기술지주회사, 기술사업화센터, 창업지원단 등과 같은 대학 내에 존재하는 대표적인 창업활동 주체(조직) 간 효과적인 협력체계 구축과 함께 성공적인 창업을 위한 실행 가능한 방안을 모색해야 할 것이다.

The purpose of this paper is to find the success factors for a newly developed marine financial city of Busan. For this, in the paper, we did case studies about advanced marine financial cities such as Hamburg, Oslo, Pireus, Shanghai, Singapore and London. And we made the hierarchical questionnaire for this study from literature reviews and interviews with experts in the field of the marine finance. A hierarchy was made up of 4 factors as the first class and the each factor consisted of four elements as the second class. The results of AHP analysis are as follows. First, the most important factor in the priorities with respect to marine financial city of Busan is "development of marine finance(0.371)" within the four factors as the first class. Next came "business environment(0.248)", "infrastructure(0.206)" and "support of government(0.175)". Second, the most important things is a clustering for marine finance(0.134) within 16 elements as the second class. We also analysed the priorities by the each factor of the second class. The most important element is an industrial clustering of marine finance(0.400) for "development of marine finance" and a clustering of the shipbuilding & marine industry(0.175) for "business environment" factor. And the ICT & transportation(0.326) is the most important element for "infrastructure" and a support of the national government(0.423) for "support of government" factor.

미국의 실리콘밸리와 대만의 신주공업단지는 종종 첨단 산업집적단지의 성공적 모델로 불리어진다. 이들 두 지역의 성공 및 경쟁력에 대한 지배적 설명은 전통적으로 경제활동의 공간적 집적이 가져다주는 경제적 이익을 제시하기 위해 사용된 "외부규모의 경제"에 이론적 기반을 두고 있다. 그러나, 외부경제란 개념만으로 이들 지역의 역동적 발전과 모방하기 힘든 경쟁력을 설명하기에는 부족함이 많았다. 본 논문은 이들 지역에서 역사적으로 전개되어진 기업과 외부 경제주체들과의 관계를 사회적 자본, 네트워크 기반 산업시스템 분석, 자원기반이론 등을 토대로 분석하여 이들 두 지역이 첨단집적단지로서의 성공요인과 경쟁우위에 대해서 살펴보고자 했다. 아울러 본 논문은 이들 두 지역에 있어서 발전적 협력관계를 분석함으로서 국내에서 이러한 첨단산업단지를 개발하고 발전시키기 위해 필요한 것이 무엇인지를 검토하고 이에 필요한 정책적 시사점을 몇 가지 제시했다.몇 가지 제시했다.

Innovation clusters have different factors depending on different stages. Innovation clusters in Gyeonggi now are early stages, which are necessary to investigate factors so that they go into upstages. Silicon Valley is known as one of the best innovation clusters, which are now represented as the forms of related variety. The purpose of the paper is to investigate current situation of innovation clusters in Silicon Valley and suggest appropriate policies for the development of innovation clusters in Gyeonggi. In order to do this, we visit several representative institutions regarding infra, human-training, industry-academic-institution cooperation, start-up assistance and local government. Throughout the case study, we propose implications, and produce policy tasks for the development of cluster policy in Gyeonggi.

The term, Mittelstand, has no exact english translation for the definition, but, today, Mittelstand refers to small and medium-sized enterprises(SME), mostly family-owned firms in Germany. The Mittelstand is called the backbone of the German economy because it drove the economic miracle after World War II. During the global recession and the euro zone's debt crisis in recent years, in which european businesses have faced the near-collapse of competitiveness particularly in manufacturing, the German exports are booming and exceeded exports of China in 2012. Most importantly, the Germany economic performance has been widely attributed to the strength of the Mittelstand. Many of countries, even some leading public companies are seeking to emulate the success of the Mittelstand. Investors evaluate that many of Germany's investable "hidden champions" are Mittelstand companies. The purpose of this study is to present some of answers to the following questions: Firstly, what makes the German Mittelstand so successful? Secondly, what does the success of the German Mittelstand mean for the Korean SMEs in global competitiveness? Thirdly, what Korean government has to do improve the global competitiveness of the Korean SMEs? Some discussions in this study mention the managerial implications for Korean exporting SMEs particularly in manufacturing. Several factors that account for the success of the German Mittelstand are technological excellence and the tradition of family-owned management, concentration on niche market and globalization, and institutional supports. There are some of important lessons to be learned from the German Mittelstand. If the purposes of Korean SMEs want to remain in the sustainable competitive advantage and withstand unforeseen economic turbulences in the future, they must be able to meet the followings: 1) Technology that meets the global standard or exceeding it 2) Competitiveness in price in the global market 3) Active involvement in the globalization process, utilizing various entry modes Innovative products at globally competitive price are a crucial point for Korean exporting SMEs to achieve their competitive edge over others in the target markets abroad. It is time for Korean SMEs to cultivate a core competence in manufacturing in order to position Korea as a global manufacturing hub with SMEs leading.

This research examines strategic preference of domestic and foreign brick-and-mortar companies in an industrial cluster in S. Korea. This paper also examines the relationships between the anticipated benefit factors of introducing online business activities by brick-and-mortar companies and their competitive strategies. Six major honest factors were derived including easiness of obtaining information, online intermediary, online distribution, online communication, sharing information and knowledge. Comparing domestic and foreign companies operating in S. Korea, the analyses show that the benefit factors influence on firms' choosing one or some combination of the competitive strategies. The result also shows that there was no big difference between domestic and foreign companies in terms of strategic preference and anticipated levels of benefit factors by introducing online business activities.

This paper examined opportunities and limitations of building an innovation cluster based on large scale research facilities (LSRF). For this purpose, success factors of innovation clusters were drawn from the literature, and categorized into knowledge & technology, transaction cost & agglomeration economies, hardware & software infrastructure, and government policy & strategy. Utilizing the categorization as an analytic framework, case studies of CERN and SPring-8 were performed. The results showed that there were various innovation processes for both cases, creating opportunities for developing innovation clusters in terms of knowledge and technology. On the other hand, in the case of SPring-8, there were disadvantages in the transaction cost and agglomeration economies, being located in a remote area due to the nature of the facility. Software & hardware infrastructure of SPring-8 limited its potential for innovation clusters. Regarding government policy and strategy, CERN, as a multinational institution, did not consider an innovation cluster in a specific region despite some advantages. An innovation cluster around SPring-8 was promoted by government policy despite some disadvantages. In other words, the advantages and disadvantages were enhanced or complemented by software & hardware infrastructure and government policy & strategy. Based on the results, this paper provides the implications for the Korean International Science-Business Belt.
