The startup ecosystem is experiencing a paradigm shift in founding due to the acceleration of digital transformation, online platform companies have grown significantly into unicorns, but the lack of differentiated approaches and strategic support for deep tech startups has led to the inactivity of the startup ecosystem. is lacking. Therefore, in this study, we proposed ways to develop domestic startup development policies, focusing on the US system, which is an advanced example overseas. Focusing on the definition and characteristics of deep tech startups, current investment status, success stories, support policies, etc., we comprehensively analyzed domestic and international literature and derived suggestions. In particular, he proposed specific ways to improve support policies for domestic deep tech startups and presented milestones for their development. Currently, the United States is significantly strengthening the role of the government in supporting deep tech startups. The US government provides direct financial support to deep tech startups, including detergent support and infrastructure support. It has also established policies to foster deep tech startups, established related institutions, and systematized support. It is worth noting that US universities play a core role in nurturing deep tech startups. Leading universities in the United States operate deep tech startup discovery and development programs, providing research and development infrastructure and technology. It also works with companies to provide co-investment and commercialization support for deep tech startups. As a result, the growth of domestic deep tech startups requires the cooperation of diverse entities such as the government, universities, companies, and private investors. The government should strengthen policy support, and universities and businesses should work together to support R&D and commercialization capabilities. Furthermore, private investors must stimulate investment in deep tech startups. Through such efforts, deep tech startups are expected to grow and Korea's innovation ecosystem will be revitalized.

Not only the government, but private corporations have contributed a lot to growth and development of culture. Corporations have mainly made charitable, dispensational Macenat activities which are separate from their business activities. Such an one-sided and charitable method of supporting culture cannot last long - Part of the reason why the number of corporations supporting culture is decreasing lies in it. In order to have sustainable partnership with culture, first, corporations should figure out needs of the other party. Second, the activities of corporations to support culture should be corporate citizenship activities which are linked to their business activities. In particular, the existing concepts of CSR and CSV have some limits. CSR separates business activities of corporations and their social contribution activities, and CSV mainly assumes corporate social activities helpful to their business activities. But, the concept of corporate citizenship suggested in this study assumes corporate activities where corporations do their best not only in their business activities, but in solution of social problems. Accordingly, searching for the ways to practice corporate citizenship, this study analyzed global agendas of UN, UNESCO, and UCLG which suggest sustainable development with culture and corporate citizenship activities related with culture among corporations in Korea and other countries. The findings and hints of the analysis are as follows. First, corporate citizenship activities can contribute to building of unique images of corporations and improvement of brand identities. Second, such activities can help corporations to be born again as life style companies by using local cultures and their attractiveness. Third, corporations should have partnership with cultural associations creating shared values and provide them with continuous and stable support. And, cultural associations should try to grow with corporations through efforts to develop attractive contents and programs harmonious with management purposes of corporations.

The rapidity at which industrial and business management environment has become globalized, including the FTA, has provided valuable opportunities for domestic small and medium enterprises (SMEs) to obtain global technological business. However, it is unclear whether or not the SMEs' attempt to advance global technological business is producing fruitful results. This study begins with defining global technological business and the efforts of SMEs to develop them and proceeds to discuss survey results that asked the reasoning behind SMEs that entered or wish to enter foreign spheres (China, Japan, Southeast Asia, and Europe) of businesses, and also perform factorial analysis to obtain substantiation. The study classified the relevant SMEs using clustering method. Based on the results, the study makes recommendations to executives in instilling global-minded strategies, on customized support strategies depending on the SME's capability and its intended foreign entry sphere, and on strengthening the SME's competence on the global scale.

지난해 12월 3일, 금융위원회(이하"금융위")는 금융개혁 정례 기자간담회에서 그 동안의 금융개혁 성과를 발표하였다. 지난 3월 금융개혁 추진방향 마련 시 50개의 금융개혁 실천과제를 선정하고, 규제개혁 과정에서 20개 과제를 추가 발굴하여 총 70개의 금융개혁 실천과제를 선정하였고, 그 중 (1) 제도개선이 완료되어 시행중인 과제가 24건, (2) 일부 시행중인 과제가 17건, (3) 방안은 발표했으나, 법령 개정 등 제도개선 중인 과제가 16건, 마지막으로 (4) 방안을 마련중인 과제 즉 미발표 과제가 총 13건인 것으로 밝혀졌다. 금융개혁 실천과제 중, 핀테크 생태계 구축과 관련된 과제는 5건, 인터넷 전문은행 도입과 관련된 과제는 2건 그리고 빅데이터 활성화와 관련된 과제는 2건으로 직접적인 핀테크 산업 활성화와 관련된 과제는 총 9개라고 볼 수 있다. 이 중에서 6건의 과제는 이미 제도개선이 완료되어 시행되고 있으며, 나머지 3건은 방안은 발표되었으나, 법령 개정 등 제도개선이 필요한 상태이다. 여전히 은산분리 규제 완화를 위한 은행법 개정 이슈, 신용정보법 개정을 통한 빅데이터 산업 활성화 등은 여전히 제도개선 과제나 규제 완화 방안이 구체화되지 않은 단계이다. 금융당국은 금융산업에 대해서 오프라인 산업으로서 규제마인드를 갖고 있다. 국경을 넘나들며 금융서비스가 제공되는 시대에 오프라인 산업 관점의 전통적 금융규제들을 재검토해야 한다. 금융산업에서 핀테크와 쉽게 결합하여 서비스를 창출하고, 시장에서 경쟁할 수 있도록 하는 관점에서 기존의 규제들을 재평가해야 한다. 인터넷에서는 국경을 넘어선 서비스를 막을 수 없으므로 국내형 규제에 얽매인 국내 금융회사들은 혁신적 서비스를 도입할 수 없어 궁극적으로 글로벌 인터넷 거인들이 결국 국내 금융회사들의 사업 기회를 빼앗아 가게 될 것이다. 글로벌 인터넷 기업들이 국내 금융기관을 지배하게 될 것이라는 숙명을 빨리 깨닫고 과거의 관점에서 벗어나 온라인 서비스로 기존의 서비스를 변경하는 노력이 필요하다. 결국 금융산업은 핀테크 기업들과 협업하여 기존의 규제를 완화하거나 서비스에 맞게 변화시키고, 과감하게 폐지하는 것이 필요하다.

Remediating soils contaminated with heavy metals due to urbanization and industrialization is very important not only for human health but also for ecosystem sustainability. Of the available remediation technologies for heavy metal-contaminated soils, phytoremediation is a relatively low-cost environment-friendly technology which preserves biodiversity and soil fertility. The application of plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) during the phytoremediation of heavy metal-contaminated soils can enhance plant growth against heavy metal toxicity and increase heavy metal removal efficiency. In this study, the sources of heavy metals that have adverse effects on microorganisms, plants, and humans, and the plant growth-promoting traits of PGPB are addressed and the research trends of PGPB-assisted phytoremediation over the last 10 years are summarized. In addition, the effects of environmental factors and PGPB inoculation methods on the performance of PGPB-assisted phytoremediation are discussed. For the innovation of PGPB-assisted phytoremediation, it is necessary to understand the behavior of PGPB and the interactions among plant, PGPB, and indigenous microorganisms in the field.
