The main thrusts of Canadian regional innovation policy lies in the two tract system. Federal government decides only the strategic research and development sectors and priorities, and then researchers and stockholders in the regions decide and implement the specific networking relationships and appropriate governance system. This paper reviewed the decentralized and market-friendly Canadian regional innovation support system and the characteristics of Canadian innovation clusters: Learning, Labour, Location, Leadership, Legislation/ Labs. finally, policy implications for Korean regional innovation system such as networking, formation of social capital, and business support systems are offered.

The Lorraine region of France is one of the regions in the core of Europe that suffered most from the decline of its traditional industries. Since the 1970s, various levels of governments have attempted to solve the economic and social problems originating from de-industrialization with policies of regional innovation, e.g., establishing technopole, the creation of the technology transfer network, the launch of the RTP project, and business incubators to promote start-ups, technology transfers, and networks between governments, businesses, universities, public research institutes, and the public. In this context, this paper attempts to analyse governance of regional innovation policies of the Lorraine region, based on an analytical framework developed by a groups of researchers, i.e.. Bae et at (2006). The paper concludes that the roles of governments are important in creating and implementing regional innovation policies of the Lorraine region; the policies heavily rely on the R&D capacity of universities and public research institutes; and various levels of governments have different roles to play.

지식과 정보의 창출, 확산은 국가혁신의 원동력으로 크게 부각되고 있어 선진국은 체계적이고 수요자 지향적인 과학기술종합정보시스템(NTIS)을 구축하고 있다. 그러나 우리나라는 그 동안의 노력에도 불구하고 기관별 상호 연계성 미흡, 중복 개발 운영되어 효율성이 낮고, 연구성과 관리가 어렵고 활용도가 저조하였다. 이에 정부는 기술, 시장, 산업, 인력 등이 연계된 전주기 종합정보서비스체제를 구축하여 과학기술정보종합상황판 구축 활용하고자 한다. 언제, 어디서나 편리하게 이용할 수 있는 시스템 구축으로 하나의 창구로 종합적인 과학기술 정보의 획득이 가능하게 되고 국가연구개발 상황을 종합적으로 파악, 분석하여 투명하고 개방적인 연구관리 지원체제로 지식 정보의 체계적인 창출, 확산, 활용 및 공유를 통해 연구개발 생산성 제고 및 새로운 혁신체제를 구축할 계획이다. NTIS 구축의 향후 과제로는 (1) 연구기획 강화를 위한 R&D모니터 및 조기경보시스템 구축, (2) NTIS 표준화의 선결적 추진이 요구된다. 4가지 표준화 영역 중 기술요소표준을 제외한 3개 영역은 별도의 표준화 과제 수행을 통해 추진하되 분류표준 중 기술분류 표준은 인력, 장비, 기자재는 물론, 사업/프로그램 및 과제관리기관 등과 관련성을 가지므로 NTIS표준화의 핵심이 될 것이다.

그동안 지역혁신체제론의 관점에서 지역연구개발시스템의 효율성을 분석하는 다양한 연구가 수행되었다. 하지만 (1)지역연구개발시스템의 내부 처리과정 고려 미흡과 (2)연구개발의 특수성을 고려하지 못한 효율성의 분석모형 설정, (3)투입 산출지표 설정의 타당성 부족, (4)산출된 효율성 지수의 민감도 분석 소홀 등의 여러 한계점이 존재한다. 특히 5~10년 이내의 단기간으로 접근함에 따라 지역연구개발시스템의 효율성이 어떻게 변모해왔는지 그 역동성을 상세히 고찰하지 못하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 1999년~2014년까지 16개 광역지방자치단체를 대상으로 네트워크 자료포락분석(Network Data Envelope Analysis: DEA)의 2단계 접근법(two-stage approach)을 활용해서 지역연구개발시스템의 효율성을 분석하고 주요 개선방향들을 논의하였다.

External linkages affect the performance of small and medium enterprises in diverse ways. This study delves into the impact of inter-organizational collaboration by looking at different facets of performance, such as innovation, sales growth, profit growth, and firm survival. In addition, it explores the influence of informal knowledge spillover from collaborative partners as well as from formal collaborations. The impact is carefully investigated by dividing firm samples into three different sectoral innovation categories: supplier-dominant, production-intensive, and science-based sector suggested by Pavitt (1984). The result highlights the different influence pattern of collaborative relations by partner types according to sectoral categories. The positive results of collaborating with universities and public institutions are identified, and the sales growth by customer linkage is witnessed. The impact is apparent in science-based sectors. The result implies that the risk associated with collaborating with competitors may be moderated by linking performance enhancing collaborative linkages with universities and government institutes.

This study focuses on the changes in the national innovation system between Korea and China since the 1990s, and studies how to benchmark the limitations of the current national innovation system in Korea from successful national innovation systems in China and apply it to Korean cultural contents. As a result of the review, the current cultural content of Korea is a time when it is necessary to drive sustainable growth in a rapidly changing era, and as a result of applying it from the successful cases of China's national innovation system, it is necessary to change the production of Korean cultural content of the Push strategy into a Pull strategy. In other words, it is necessary to produce cultural contents that fit the paradigm of market change. In addition, the existing technology should lead to the creation of new added value from each element composed of Korean cultural contents, K-pop, K-beauty, Korean food, and above all, it is necessary to institutional innovation of the country in distribution abroad.

In the glocalization a common phenomenon of several nations reveals knowledge innovation and growth by the important subject of region and state and is studied at theory and practice. the successful cases of regional development in an advanced country have leading innovation through regional innovation system and cluster. therefore we are necessary to analyse how the knowledge spillovers in innovative cluster as the reduced model of regional innovation system guide firm innovation and region growth. this article reviews theories and empirical studies of the knowledge spillovers in the regional innovation system and innovative cluster of innovative geography and proposes a new research issues for further explorations of the knowledge spillovers. Previous studies assist that knowledge spillovers exist in knowledge-based industries of specific local area and local innovation accomplishes through pure knowledge spillover. but limits of these studies include narrow region and technological area, few analytical variable and exclusion of rent knowledge spillover. therefore new research topics related with that exemplifies geographical dimension(concentration and decentralization), technological dimension(knowledge based industry), category of analytic variables(previous indicators, time, and social capital), conceptualization(appropriation means, markets for technology) etc.

We witness now the changing techno-economic paradigm and the emerging learning economy. Reflecting on these changes, the group of Evolutionary Economists study recently the theory on regional innovation system, but their research results are still now not theoretically ‘systemized’. Moreover, they often indeed speak of the ‘social capital’, but do not investigate that. This paper tries to systemize their empirical findings and theoretical results and integrate the discussions on social capital in fields of sociology into a mathematical model. This study emphasizes the role of social capital in the innovating process.

This paper aims to identify the role of local governments in building regional innovation system. The central government has recently decided to support the promotion of innovation capacities of local innovators and innovation networks among thor The central government forces local governments to establish the council for regional innovation in order to implement these goals. Meanwhile, there is no consensus about the way in which the council for regional innovations constitute and operate. I think it is the time for us to talk about this seriously. It is widely conceived that local governments in Korea have still been hierarchical. Thus, they would be difficult to make the decision effectively on regional innovation and development initiatives. In this context, I suggest that the regional innovation promoting agency needs to take authorities to secure transparency and autonomy in planning, implementing, evaluating regional innovation initiatives. The local government no! ed to play a central role in establishing the agency. However, the local government should not try to intervene and control its operations.
