While the ship finance industry has long been struggling with diminishing involvements from the private sector, government-run banks have consistently increased their presence in maritime finance. To address such concerns, this research conceptually explores the creation of blockchain technology-driven security token offering (STO) platforms. To suggest a sound platform model, this piece first examines key design principles. Based on the integral perspective on the digital platform, this paper exhibits three core design principles to create a virtuous platform ecosystem, then sets out STO platform design guidelines. This paper further explores an STO platform model by considering conventional ship finance systems and practices in Korea. The STO platform has three main effects; 1) the wider availability of STOs can enlarge both the scope and size of ship finance users, 2) the activation of security token transactions leads to an increase in participation, and 3) possibilities to create complementary innovative financial services can further encourage the participation of private investors. The STO ecosystem may contribute to the shipping, shipbuilding, and ship finance industries by enhancing its attractiveness to the general public and by creating positive externalities for Busan as a maritime finance center.

The importance of start-ups and venture companies in the Korean economy is growing. However, the successful growth of startups and venture companies are still challenging as 70% of startups fail within 5 years. A new perspective on innovation is essential to overcome the liability of newness and the liability of smallness in the existing market and obtain the competitive advantage. Recent phenomenon in the Korean startups ecosystem is the remarkable growth of unicorns and future unicorns. Their business models, types of business, and success cases serve as a good example. Neverthless, the process of unicorn and future unicorn startups making new industries and innovative business has poorly understood. In this paper, we first define 175 unicorns and future unicorn startups participating in the K-unicorn project as a unicorn group and analyze current trends of the group. Then the in-depth analyses of industry sectors are conducted. Specifically, focusing on the unicorn forming the new market, we examine the unicorn making the processes of industry category innovation through the business innovation model. Lastly, broadening the scope of the analysis to the unicorn group, policy implications in startups and venture ecosystem are suggested.

In line with the era of local universities, a total of 402 people, including companies, private businesses, individuals (founders), and companies listed in the 2021 campus innovation park, were surveyed for six days from 02/15/2021 to 02/21. According to the regression analysis, future-oriented (47%) factors influencing the establishment of campus innovation park consumer-centered methods (p<.05), the standardization factor 𝛽 is future-oriented (𝛽=.479), Environmental Analysis and Policy (𝛽=.047), and it was confirmed that there was a greater future-oriented influence on innovative park consumers than environmental analysis and policy. This study is meaningful in identifying the needs of consumers and businesses related to the campus innovation park construction project of S University in the province and suggesting ways to establish an efficient innovation park.

In this paper, we focus the changing role of universities of University-Industry Collaboration (UIC) for enriching the regional business ecosystem network. For this research, we analyze 'Regional Innovation System(RIS)' - a specific UIC program- which provides a marketing service for firms, especially, SMEs with a specific problem by a group of consultants including CEOs, professors, and heads of regional public or private service providers. Then we have analyzed using network analysis how the business network was changed from RIS. Moreover, we will interview the participants in the important position of the network and investigate the reason for bringing a change in the network structure by using this program. This study illustrates that various types of network are formed between university and SMEs. Furthermore, the networks surrounding SMEs are extended to the other people connected to them. This means that the business network of SMEs had been diversified via the facilitation of university. This study throws new highlights on the new role for the university as a network promoter in addition to the partner as a technology-provider in the regional business ecosystem. Moreover, the network analysis between before-and-after can be used for the evaluation of the effectiveness of the various UIC programs.

ICT 기술 융합이 가져오는 초고속과 초융합, 초지능화 시대를 의미하는 제4차 산업혁명으로의 진입을 앞두고 있다. 그리고 그 시대를 선도하기 위한 국가, 기관차원의 전략수립이 치열하다. 그러나 제4차 산업혁명에 대한 불분명한 기준은 전략수립에 있어서 장애요인이 될 수밖에 없다. 이에 본 연구는 제4차 산업혁명에 관한 문헌을 토대로 전략수립을 위한 프레임워크를 제안하여, 다가오는 시대변화에 대응하기 위한 정부출연 연구기관의 역할에 대한 시사점을 얻는 데 그 목적이 있다. 특히 정부출연연구기관의 역할을 기술 인력 정보 제공자로 분명히 하고, 관련된 민간기업과의 공생을 통하여 제4차 산업혁명의 생태계를 조성하는 것을 강조하고자 한다. 제4차 산업혁명이 유연한 산업구조를 요구하고 있는 것은 분명하다. 따라서 정부출연 연구기관이 중소기업 및 기술기반 창업기업이 성장할 수 있는 생태계를 조성한다면, 제4차 산업혁명을 대기업 위주의 산업구조를 탈피할 수 있는 기회로 활용할 수 있을 것이다.
