As the technology advances and convergence progresses, companies are increasingly interested in the appropriability mechanism. Therefore in this study tried to understand the effectiveness of the appropriability mechanism of domestic IT companies. To this end, 7 appropriability mechanisms were finally derived and empirically analyzed from a review of previous studies and experts. As a result of the analysis, the importance of lead time advantage, patent, secrecy, complementary sales and service, design registered, complementary manufacturing, and learning curve effect was shown in the order of SW companies. HW companies, the importance of patent, secrecy, lead time advantage, design registered, complementary sales and service, learning curve effect, and complementary manufacturing were shown in the order of importance. Also patent, secrecy, and lead time advantage was selected as important factors. The results of in this study are expected to be used as useful guidelines on establishing an appropriability mechanism strategy in companies.

In devising technological innovation strategies and implementing successful technological innovation, some of the most important factors may be to determine whether to protect technological innovation and to choose how to protect it. Traditionally, technological innovation has been emphasized to obtain compensation as much as possible for innovation in terms of economics and strategy. However, it can be regarded as a very complicated problem to determine such a protection and its level. Generally speaking, enterprises have some common mechanisms to secure compensation for technological innovation, which are known to be patents, secrecy and lead time advantage. From the standpoint of enterprises, it is very important what strategies should be devised to secure profits for technological innovation. According to some domestic and oversea research results revealed that specific patents are not the best way to Appropriability for technological innovation, while also implying that there exist several different kinds of mechanisms to Appropriability for technological innovation in each industry. Nevertheless, since it shouldn't be ignored that most of the researches have overlooked the characteristics of Korean enterprises and industrial differences, this study intends to clarify the effectiveness of technological innovation Appropriability mechanisms reflecting actual circumstances and industrial characteristics in Korea while classifying them. Also The questionnaires and delphi method used in this study. As the result of analysis, in the entire industries, the priorities turned out to be in the order of Superior sales and service efforts, Leadtime advantage, Complementary manufacturing.
