Mass Customization combines the advantages of mass production and customization. Mass customization has been praised as an innovative approach that would result in changes in business paradigm. However, there is no consensus on the concept of mass customization, but only a generally accepted framework exists to explain successful practices. Prior cases in mass customization are those of the small-medium sized or Internet-based companies. We in this paper explore the mass customization cases of market-leading manufacturers. Although those traditional organizations may be not for swift change, the cases of those companies are important because they target mass markets. Lampel and Mintzberg[35] proposed a continuum of strategies ranging from pure standardization to pure customization. This study investigates mass customization strategies of three companies. In this paper, the cases of cosmetics and sports shoe can be described as tailored customization, and the household appliances case can be classified as customized standardization. These three cases are compared with each other from the customers' decoupling point. Findings and implications of this research are discussed.

This study was conducted to review whether there is a difference in the audience effect of advertisements of IoT products across different levels of sensory innovativeness. For the study, a total of 128 male and female university students and three advertisements of IoT products were selected. The study findings show that consumers with a higher tendency in purusing sensory innovativeness are more likely to rate more positively the perceived usefulness of the product and the attitude towards the product as shown in the advertisement. This finding is meaningful in that it was concluded from an empirical study at a time when studies on advertisements of IoT products are lacking. The study is also expected to provide beneficial insights into effective execution of advertisements of new technologies and establishment of marketing strategies. Follow-up studies that take into account a wider range of variables representing sensory innovativeness in consumers are suggested.

A manufacturing industry has secured its competitiveness through cost reduction, research for new products, development of manufacturing technology traditionally. However, many manufacturers are being required of innovative efforts for business sustainability by emergence of new technology and industry owing to fast technology development and convergence among technologies and industries. Continuous growth can not be expected with the way of simple manufacturing and sales under the 4^th industrial revolution era. Separation of service from product is getting more vague in some specific area and a service provider is often offering its own product together. Innovation destroying manufacturing value chain with servitization can only create the new value. Basic concept of servitization, paradigm change and future prospect of manufacturing industries suffering from the 4^th industrial revolution will be analyzed in this paper. Also, the strategy, application and methodology for servitization required in the convergence period will be researched.

소매업이 영속기업 으로서 생존하고 지속적으로 성장하기 위해서는 무엇보다도 경쟁상대와의 사이에서 차별화가 가능한 경쟁 업태전략의 전개가 필요하다. 왜냐하면 소매업의 역사는 소매업의 혁신에 의한 경쟁과 구조의 변화과정이라고 볼 수 있는데 그 과정 속에는 소매업 그 자신이 제공하는 제품 서비스의 특징과 소비자의 구매행동과 의식의 변화가 있었기 때문이다. 연구는 주로 소매업에 있어서의 소비자와 경쟁이라는 2가지 요인을 줌심으로 이론 검토를 행함과 동시에 소비자의 소매업태 선택행동에 관한 질문표 조사연구를 실시함으로서 소매전략의 전개 방향성을 제시하려 하였으며 그 예로서 업태개발 전환을 포함하는 소비자 지향의 새로운 소매전략의 전개와 점포로열티 강화전략을 들고있다.

Along with technological innovation, successful market entry of a new product is important for sustainable innovation of a firm. In this paper, we examined factors that affect successful introduction of new branded drugs in pharmaceutical industry. Under competing theories of the first mover's advantage and the late mover's advantage, this research focuses on how latecomers can overcome the disadvantages of late entry and catch up to the market leader. First, late movers can absorb the knowledge leaked from pioneering product during the time lag between early entrants and late entrants. Therefore, the time lag provides late entrants an opportunity to catch-up to market leader by differentiating and improving the quality of new product. Second, superior marketing capability of late entrants can enhance the possibility of catching-up, by overcoming the consumer base of early entrants.

Game industry, one of cultural-content industry which is considered as a typical knowledge-based industry and creative industry, is not like the overseas expansion of traditional manufacture, and has different strategy and performance of export expansion through product or project-based strategy. Therefore, it should be approached by each content unit, and necessary to look at the factors that make their decision makings of foreign market entry vary.
