본 연구는 중소기업의 해외진출요인이 기업 경제적 성과에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구모형을 수립하고, 중국진출 진출 기업 48개를 대상으로 이에 대한 영향관계를 실증분석 하였다. 해외진출요인으로 기업의 현지화전략, 기업특유우위, 경쟁전략을 경제적 성과는 매출액을 대용변수로 사용하여 회귀분석을 통해 영향관계를 검증하였다. 동 연구결과에서 도출된 성과요인과 경제적 성과의 영향관계는 향후 기업들의 중국진출 계획에 도움이 될 것으로 판단된다.

This research develops a theoretical model of the influence of firm's internal and external characteristics on foreign knowledge learning and international performance. To verify research hypotheses, 222 cases were collected as samples and the data was tested by structural equation modeling analysis. The result of the analysis shows that the CEO's foreign experience, entrepreneurship, technological innovation and use of foreign network have positive influence on the international performance. Besides CEO's foreign experience and use of foreign network affects the foreign knowledge learning, which shows the useful relationship of international performance and accordingly it is proved that the foreign knowledge learning has mediating effect between the firm's internal and external characteristics and international performance.

This paper investigates the Moderating effect of entrepreneurship on the relationship between market orientation and international performance in Korean Ventures. Literature revealed that an appropriate alignment between firm strategic orientation and market positioning is critical because of its impact on firm performance. The alignment is especially crucial for SMEs as a result of their limited resource base. However, studies have not adequately accounted for the joint effect of entrepreneurship and market orientation on firm performance in different environments as foreign markets. Drawing upon a sample of 217 internationalized Korean Venture Business, it presents evidence related to mainly moderating effects of entrepreneurship on market orientation-international performance. The Key conclusion from the evidence is that market orientation, alone and in conjunction with certain entrepreneurship dimensions, is positively related to firm international performance. More specifically innovativeness and proactiveness have positively moderated the relationship between market orientation and international performance in Korean Ventures.

This study analyzes the determinants of the choice of foreign direct investment mode by Korean fashion firms in entering into foreign markets. We have established hypotheses regarding their choice among three classical entry modes including a wholly-owned subsidiary, a joint venture and an M&A based on factors such as the investing firm's size, international experience and international strategy type, host market potentials, cultural distance and foreign investment risk. By conducting multiple logistic regression over secondary data on 100 Korean fashion firms, we found that all variables but cultural distance were statistically significant. The results may contribute to advancing international business theory on the fashion industry and developing fashion firms' global strategy.

본 논문은 한국 및 독일 보험회사의 해외 진출 모델을 비교 연구한다. 특히, 독일 법률비용보험회사의 한국 진출 사례를 분석하여 국내 보험회사의 해외진출에 주는 시사점을 제시한다. 연구방법론으로서 한국 및 독일 보험회사의 해외 진출사례를 수집하여 비교 분석한다. 이를 위하여 각 보험회사의 해외진출 담당자와 면담, 이메일(e-mail), 전화상담 방법을 사용한다. 그리고 문헌연구를 통하여 연구의 이론적 배경과 기존의 연구결과를 분석한다. 본 연구에서는 보험회사 해외진출의 이론적인 배경으로서 고객지향 현지화전략, 수익지향전략, 신규특화시장 개척전략, 성장시장 진출전략 4개 요인으로 구분한다. 국내 보험회사는 해외 성장시장 진출 측면에서 긍정적인 반면에 수익지향, 현지화전략과 해외 신규 특화시장 개척 부분에서 아직 개선될 부분이 있는 것으로 분석되었다. 독일 보험회사는 한국 시장에 진출하면서 철저한 현지화전략, 특화시장 개척, 성장시장에 진출의 3개 부분에서 모두 긍정적인 것으로 분석되었다. 보험회사 해외진출의 이론적 배경 4개 요인을 적용하여 비교 분석한 결과 독일 보험회사의 사례와 같이 한국 보험회사가 해외에 진출할 경우에 보다 철저한 현지화 전략과 특화시장 개척 전략이 필요하다는 점을 제시한다. 본 연구의 한계점은 독일 법률비용보험회사 1개사를 대상으로 하고 있다는 점이며, 진출 초기라서 아직 경영실적이 뒷받침되지 않고 있다는 점이다. 향후 연구과제로서 일정시점이 지난 후에 국내 보험시장에서 독일 법률비용보험회사의 발전추이를 분석하여 시사점을 분석하고 법률보험시장에서 도덕적 위태 방지 연구, 소비자 보호를 강화할 수 있는 방안 연구를 향후 연구과제로 제시한다.

유니콘기업을 목표로 하고 있는 국내 스타트업들이 아직까지 국내 투자유치와 코스닥시장 IPO를 목표로 삼고 있고, 해외 판로개척, 해외투자 유치 및 M&A를 통한 글로벌 진출이 활성화 되어 있지 않기 때문에 현재까지의 제2벤처붐은 절반의 성공이라 볼 수 있다. 현 정부에서도 스타트업의 글로벌 진출을 중요한 정책 아젠다로 보고 있는 바, 중소벤처기업들의 글로벌 진출 및 사업화 성공 요인을 분석하기 위한 연구가 필요한 시점이라 할 수 있다. 본 논문은 중소벤처기업의 글로벌 경영성과에 미치는 요인들을 살펴보기 위해 국제경영이론 중, 글로벌진출 성공요인과 관련된 자원기반관점과 동적역량관점의 선행연구를 검토해보고, 기업의 혁신역량과 개방형 혁신활동이 기업의 글로벌 성과에 미치는 영향을 실증분석을 통해 살펴보고자 한다. 아직까지 스타트업 또는 벤처기업들을 대상으로 글로벌 진출 성공요인을 도출한 연구가 부족하다는 측면에서 본 연구는 기존 연구들과 차별성이 있음을 밝힌다.

This study first analyzes economical environment change (factor) of investment nation Japan and Japanese enterprise at the analysis of Japanese enterprise's over-seas expansion factor and influence. As a result of an analysis of the factor about Japanese enterprise's overseas expansion from 1990 to 1996 and from 1998 to 2006, commonly applied factors were Yen exchange rate, interest rates, wage, enterprise profit, facility investment, and consumption expenditure. Especially, as a result of regression analysis, a sudden change of "low interest rate" was main factor at Japanese enterprise's overseas expansion from 1990 to 1996, and Japan's "Yen ex-change rate" was drawn as an important factor from 1998 to 2006. That is, from 1990 to 1996, a shock by a sudden rise in Yen value could be viewed gradually accumulated and absorbed inside Japanese economy from 1998 to 2006. Whereas it could be said that Japanese enterprise's overseas expansion was accelerated under Japanese government's overseas supporting policy and "low interest rate" together with the factor in the rise of Yen value from 1998 to 2006.

Medium and small-sized venture firms as well as multinational companies pay liabilities of foreignness. We defined these costs as three different factors which are liability of handicaps(deficit of time, money, experience and, increase of financial risk), overseas market entry costs(information gathering costs, network building costs, marketing costs, channelling costs, monitoring costs), internationalization preparing costs(forecasting and market research of local markets, ex-ante cooperation with local firms), and then empirically tested how each of these factors affects on their business performances. The more important both Taiwanese and Korean firms consider liability of handicaps, the more bigger they pay overseas market entry costs(H1). On the contrary, the more important they consider overseas entry costs, the more they focus on internationalization preparation(H4) and get the better business performances(H5). The more important Korean firms consider liability of handicaps, the bigger they focus on internationalization preparation, on the contrary, the less Taiwanese firms do this(H2). Taiwanese firms as well as Korean firms rejected Hypothesis 3 and 6 which mean both liability of handicaps and internationalization preparation are no relation with their own business performances.

This study identifies influence factors for Korean railway export and analyzes the importance and competitiveness of the factors. This study also suggests policy directions for each factor and analyzes the current situation of the Korean railway industry. All influence factors identified in this study turned out to have high levels of importance. Influence factors with higher importance levels for each field are as follows: man-power/experience and skill/technology in the engineering field; price, information and man-power/experience in the construction field; and information, technology, and price in the manufacturing field. However, the level of competitiveness of the factors turned out to be low. This study also suggested policy directions for each influence factor: overall, they turned out to have high levels of importance. Policy directions with high importance for each field are as follows: strengthening overseas' human network, training/educating experts for overseas projects, and accumulating experiences through Official Development Assistance projects in the fields of engineering and construction; and cost reduction and strategical cooperation with foreign companies in the manufacturing field. However, interviewees' satisfaction levels for each policy area turned out to be low. Finally, policy measures for Korean railway export for each influence factor were suggested.
