Recent studies focus on how open innovation strategies affect innovation in enterprises, but lack research related to the forms of openness. There is also a paradox that an entity should open up for open innovation but also protect its innovation. In this regard, the need for research on innovation protection has expanded. Therefore, this study looked at the effect of the form of openness on product innovation, and explored how the relationship between the form of openness and product innovation depends on the appropriation mechanisms. This study used data from the Korean Innovation Survey(KIS), which was developed and distributed by the OECD. The main findings of this study are summarized as follows. First, the forms of openness has a positive effect on product innovation. Specifically, external search has had a positive impact on exploitative innovation, and collaboration has shown to have a positive impact on exploratory innovation. Second, the appropriation mechanisms has a positive moderating effect on the relationship between the forms of openness and product innovation. Specifically, it was shown that formal appropriation mechanisms had a positive effect on the relationship between external search and product innovation, and that informal appropriation mechanisms had a positive effect on the relationship between collaboration and exploratory innovation. This study is expected to contribute to: First, this study has divided the forms of openness into external search and collaboration, unlike the existing method, and thus identified the type of product innovation and the appropriation mechanisms and forms of openness by identifying the impact on product innovation. Second, depending on the characteristics of the appropriation mechanisms, it was identified that it had the moderating effect on the forms of openness and the relationship of product innovation, so that depending on the type of openness and the type of product innovation, the type of appropriation mechanisms more suitable was identified.

The existing innovation policies and strategies mainly focused on the influencing factors for improvement of innovation outcome. However, these strategies were not always successful in driving innovative activities that make technology innovation disseminated. In this regard, innovation ecosystems approach has recently been coming to the force to establish a successful innovation strategy. The innovation ecosystems concept describes that innovation processes are evolved through collaborative networks of economic actors. In an innovation ecosystem, different organizations collaborate for technology development and its use. They interact for value co-creation by sharing mutual resources. The organizational networks are re-organized by dynamic changes of actors' interactions, which drive innovation mechanism of the networks. Recent studies on innovation ecosystems mostly have paid attention on developing theoretical frameworks to describe dynamics of an innovation ecosystem. There have hardly been empirical tests on the theoretical ecosystem models. In this vein, we investigated dynamics of an innovation ecosystem by analyzing structural characteristics of a collaborative network among organizations which are involved in the use of innovative technologies. Particularly, we examined the longitudinal changes of the interaction patterns among the organizations. This test was performed by an analysis of structural equivalence on the network dataset transformed from the organizational interactions. This result provides a guideline for an organization in developing an innovation strategy under a systemic perspective.

Recently, the importance of technological innovation has increased for securing competitiveness and for the survival of companies. On the other hand, obstacles that enterprises face during the course of technological innovation have diversified. Through prior studies, various innovation sources and government support systems are considered important factors in resolving these obstacles as well as securing technological innovation and competitiveness. However, these studies face criticism concerning various relationships between the influencing factors and the use of simple causal models. In this study, the effects on performance were analyzed based on a structural equation model. For analysis, 1,251 observed values were collected from the "2014 Korean Innovation Survey: Manufacturing Sector". Results found that obstacles to technological innovation in terms of fund, capacity and market promote the use of innovation sources and government support programs. On the other hand, various innovation sources and government support systems utilized by corporations have positively influenced technological innovation performance. As expected, among these obstacles, financial limitation had the greatest negative effect on innovation.

While there are increasing requests for open innovation, prior studies have focused mainly on the utilizing the external sources. This study suggests to broaden the way of measuring openness to include the innovation management factors and output besides of utilizing the external sources. Additionally, the new measures will compare the status of openness in small and medium enterprises between Korea and Japan. There is greater differences in openness between SMEs and big firms in Japan than ones in Korea. Although SMEs in Japan utilize the external knowledge sources more actively than ones in Korea, they show less openness from the perspective of managerial factors such as metric for open innovation, collaboration system, investment for collaboration, and performance.

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.
