This paper analyzes the role of strategic fit, cooperation, and performance in small-sized subpart suppliers' interactions with large businesses. For this purpose, this paper analyzes survey data from 90 first-tier suppliers of Samsung Electronics and evaluates how strategic fit and cooperative relationships affect their performance. Empirical analysis suggests that strategic fit positively affects small companies' business and innovation performance. This finding aligns with theories arguing for strategies that accommodate specific business environments. In addition, strategic fit is crucial for innovativeness of SMEs (Small and Medium-sized Enterprises). With regard to forming relationships with large companies, findings also show that high quality technological and personnel cooperation boosts subpart suppliers' productivity and efficiency as notably reflected in SMEs' business performance. Moreover, such cooperation between small and large companies reinforces the benefits associated with strategic fit and innovation. This means that if the business environment of small-sized subpart suppliers is uncertain, harnessing differentiated strategies and pursuing collaborations with prime companies will produce innovative outcomes (e.g., increased patent publications). On the other hand, when degree of uncertainty is small, pursuing cost leadership strategies and collaborating with prime companies in areas, such as technology and personnel, will help small-sized subpart suppliers produce innovative outcomes. Based on these findings, this paper argues that choosing the right competitive strategy for a specific business context is intrinsically tied to (1) augmenting technological and human collaborations with prime companies, (2) improving the quality of these interactions, and (3) generating competitiveness among small subpart suppliers. Both competition and cooperation are necessary for strengthening the competitiveness of small companies.

The Purpose of this is to Examine the Effects of Collaborative Relations of Supplier- Buyer, Sustainable Supply Chain Management(SCM) Sctivities, and Collaborative Performance in Automobile-part Companies. The Proposed Research Model is Tested using Structural Equation Modeling for Hypotheses based on the Data Collected from 274 Firms. The Results Indicate that Collaborative Relations of Supplier-buyer Positively Affect Sustainable SCM Activities. In Addition, Sustainable SCM Activities Positively Affects Collaborative Performance. The Results of the Study Show that Collaborative Relations of Supplier-buyer is Positively Associated with Sustainable SCM Activities in both Supplier and Buyer Firms. Sustainable SCM Activities have a Significant Impact on Collaborative Performance in both Parts. In Addition, Collaborative Relations of Supplier-buyer have a Significant Impact on Collaborative Performance of Buyer Firms but Supplier. This Study would Provide Useful Information for Collaboration between Supplier and Buyer to have a Long-term Strategic Relationship on Sustainable SCM Activities, which Impact on Collaborative Performance and Competitive Advantages.

과거부터 미국과 긴밀한 협력 관계를 유지해온 한국 방산업체로서는 미국업체와의 더욱 깊고 새로운 협력의 지평이 마련되야 할 것으로 생각합니다. 한국 방산업체에 종사하는 한 사람으로서 국내 방위산업과 양국간의 기술협력의 경험을 바탕으로 앞으로 양국 업체간 이루어야 할 협력에 관해 평소 본인이 생각하고 있는 바를 말씀드리고자 합니다

지난 50년간의 한-일 안보협력관계는 과거사와 관련한 원인으로 인해 깊이 있는 안보협력관계를 유지하기 곤란한 실정이었다. 그러나 변화하는 안보환경은 이제 보다 돈독한 한-일간의 안보협력관계를 요구하고 있다. 또한 한반도 통일 이후라는 미래 지향적 관점에서 살펴볼 때에도 이미 양국은 과거사에 얽매여 협력을 꺼리는 그런 관계로 머물러 있어서는 안 될 것이다. 이젠 보다 큰 틀 속에서'한-일' 안보협력을 추진해야 할 시기에 와 있다

According to the influence of the LINC project initiated by the Ministry of Education, Science and Technology in 2011, the number of 'University-Industry Collaboration Faculty' has been sharply increased for the last five years. It is viewed that university-industry collaboration faculty have played a prime role for promoting the university-industry collaboration. However, there is a potential threat that about 70 per cents of total expense needed for maintaining the university-industry collaboration faculty system are dependent upon finances of the LINC project. There is a concern that the university-industry collaboration faculty system will be disappeared, if a university or college fails to be selected in the LINC project or the government decides to suspend the LINC project. In order to grasp the realities and policy alternatives on the university-industry collaboration faculty system, this paper conducts a literature survey, a questionnaire survey, the in-depth interviews with experts and the persons concerned. Based on the results of the survey, we suggest policy implications in terms of legal, financial and structural dimensions.

This study aims to suggest the ways of mutually beneficial cooperation between large companies and small companies in the field of telecommunication services. To achieve this goal, it attempts to introduce mutually beneficial cooperation plans based on horizontal relationships rather than vertical relationships among large companies and small companies. Research contents will suggest the similarities and differences of individual telecommunication companies by analyzing mutually beneficial cooperation plans of large companies and small companies based on domestic three telecommunication companies. It examines the perceptions of people who are engaged in large companies and small companies in order to enhance the recognition on the mutual cooperation of large companies and small and medium companies. Based on research results, it attempts the activation methods of mutual cooperation of large and small companies.

우리나라는 2000년 수원국에서 공여국으로 전환 후 ODA 규모를 지속적으로 확대해 왔으며, 2018년 ODA 예산 규모는 약 3조 482억원으로 OECD DAC(개발원조위원회) 회원국 중 총액 기준 15위 규모로 성장했다. 우리나라의 국민총소득(GNI) 대비 ODA 비율은 0.15%(2018년)로, 우리나라는 2030년까지 GNI 대비 0.3%까지 ODA 예산규모를 확대하는 것을 목표로 하고 있다. 우리나라 하천·수자원 관련 국제개발협력 사업은 2007년 '라오스 메콩강변 종합관리사업'을 시작으로 현재까지 약 40건의 사업이 시행되었다. 시행된 사업중 90%(36건)가 중점협력국가(2016-2020)와의 협력사업이었으며, 24개의 중점협력국 중 물관리가 중점협력분야로 들어가 있는 국가는 17개국이나 그 중 8개국에서만 국제개발협력사업이 시행되었다. 라오스, 인도네시아, 캄보디아가 각각 6건, 필리핀 5건 등으로 일부 국가에 편중되어 국제개발협력사업이 추진되고 있음을 확인할 수 있었다. 이는 그동안 하천·수자원 분야 국제협력사업이 전담기관 없이, 일부 공공기관이나 민간기업의 각각의 네트워크와 노하우에 의존하여 발굴되고 있기 때문이다. 사업을 추진하는 공공기관 및 민간기업이 각자의 네트워크를 활용하여 사업의 발굴부터 시행까지 추진함에 따라 사업추진에 따른 네트워크가 지속되지 않고 단발성으로 끝나는 경우가 많고, 해당 국가에 우선적으로 필요한 사업이 선정되는 것이 아닌 사업을 추진하는 기관의 특성에 맞게 발굴된 사업이 선정되어 왔다. 국제개발협력사업 발굴에서 가장 핵심적인 부분은 상대국가와의 네트워크를 구축하고, 지속적인 교류를 통해 해당 국가에 어떤 하천 및 수자원 관련 문제가 있는지 파악해서 우선적으로 필요한 사업을 제안하는 것이 중요하다. 또한 사업제안서를 수원국이 자체적으로 작성할 수 있는 역량이 부족한 경우가 대부분이기 때문에 우리나라의 사업을 추진하는 기관이 사업제안서를 작성해주고 수원국에서 검토하는 방식으로 사업제안서를 작성해야하는 한계점이 있다. 따라서, 하천분야 국제 협력 네트워크의 지속적인 관리 및 정기적인 하천사업 수요조사 및 구원국의 사업제안서 작성 지원을 위한 전담기관을 선정하여 국제협력사업 추진을 위탁함으로써 네트워크 및 노하우의 누적을 통한 해외사업의 발굴 및 지속가능성을 강화하는 것이 필요하다고 생각된다.

It has become difficult with R&D capabilities of single nation to secure the weapons systems we need, particularly when faced with an increasingly limited budget and transforming into state-of-the-art weapon systems. Therefore, our country is also pursuing international joint technology cooperation for the efficient use of limited defense budgets. In this study, we analyzed the strategy focused on international joint technology cooperation with India. We identified three groups based on the level of defense science and technology cooperation, then we also present a possible cooperation areas and implementation strategies for each group. In addition, we suggest the need for maintenance of the legal system, and professional organizations in order to efficiently access the Indian market.
