Fraunhofer was founded in 1949 and grew into Europe's largest application-oriented research organization. Fraunhofer currently employs over 20,000 members in Germany, is internationally networked, and manages an R&D budget of over 1,8 Billion Euros per year. An important step for Fraunhofer to become an integral component of the German innovation system was the introduction of the Fraunhofer Model of financing based on a performance-related system of financial management. The underlying model of the allocation and distribution of public funding to Fraunhofer that is subsequently allotted to specific research groups is one of the success factors of Fraunhofer. Fraunhofer is proud of its decentralized organizational model. Fraunhofer is comprised of 60 Institutes in Germany working in different fields, under one legal framework, and with a strong brand value. Every Fraunhofer Institute is affiliated with a German University and every institute director simultaneously holds a chair at the affiliated university. It is a challenge for the headquarter organization to balance the intended competition of individual Fraunhofer Institutes with complementarity cooperation in science among Fraunhofer-Institutes, especially when coming from different knowledge domains; however, this goal results in a significant advantage. The unique strengths of Fraunhofer offer system solutions in a world with increasingly complex R&D challenges. While growing to become the largest organization on Europe to focus on applied research it is the challenge to remain an agile organization that is flexible in organizational structure. Fraunhofer has reached a well-recognized position in the European innovation landscape. It is often referred to by science and governments as a role model for innovation policy and a key element of the latest successes in the German economy that has recovered quicker from the latest economic crisis than most other western economies. The paper explains Fraunhofer as an organizational paradigm and its underlying management model to elaborate on the challenges of managing a research organization. We wish to show how it is possible to transfer the management model and philosophy of Fraunhofer to innovation systems with different framework conditions and challenges. A universal conclusion may be drawn based on the description of Fraunhofer; however, changes in existing structures and innovation systems cannot be implemented over night.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of each of the two technology acceptance factors(employees' attitude toward smart factory technology, and ease of smart factory technology use) on the introduction level of each of the three smart factory technologies (manufacturing big data technology, automation technology, and supply chain integration technology), and in turn, the effect of each of the three smart factory technologies on manufacturing performance. This study employed PLS statistics software package to empirically validate a structural equation model with survey data from 100 domestic small-and medium-sized manufacturing firms (SMMFs). The analysis results revealed the followings. First, it is founded that employees' attitude toward smart factory technology influenced all of the three smart factory technology introduction levels in a positive manner. In particular, SMMFs of which employees had more favorable attitude toward smart factory technology tended to increase introduction levels of both automation technology and supply chain integration technology more than in the case of manufacturing big data technology. Second, ease of smart factory technology use also had a positive impact on each of the three smart factory technology introduction levels, respectively. A noteworthy finding is this : SMMFs which perceived smart factory technology as easier to use would like to elevate the introduction level of manufacturing big data technology more than in the cases of either automation technology or supply chain integration technology. Third, smart factory technologies such as automation technology and supply chain integration technology had affirmative impacts on manufacturing performance of SMMFs. These results shed some valuable insights on the introduction of smart factory technology : The success of smart factory heavily depends on organization-and people-related factors such as employees' attitude toward smart factory technology and employees' perceived ease of smart factory technology use.

The United States understood the fostering of pro-U.S. elites in "free world" countries as an important Cold War weapon. From 1954 to 1962, the U.S provided considerable assistance to Seoul National University (SNU) for its postwar rehabilitation and future development in terms of repair and construction of campus buildings, equipment and book purchases, and faculty exchanges. With the aid of this educational assistance project widely known as the Minnesota Project, SNU was reborn with an academic orientation to the U.S., separating itself from the Japanese education that was its origin. This study argues that the Minnesota Project played an important role in crafting SNU's architecture program and the exchange program's recipients as key "knowledge brokers." For individual trainees, experience in the U.S., as opposed to a backwards situation in their homeland, had allowed them to recognize the U.S. as an ideal source of knowledge. Since the Minnesota Project, SNU's Architectural Engineering Department was filled with faculty members who had trained or studied in the U.S., which became a significant distinction of SNU's architecture program in sharp contrast to its counterparts at Hanyang University and Hongik University where most of the faculty members studied in Japan during the Japanese colonial period. As many graduates of SNU had been appointed as faculty members in newly-founded architecture programs in South Korea, a hierarchical diffusion path had emerged in architectural education that led from SNU to other school's architecture programs, with the U.S. at the apex. The legacy of the Minnesota Project extended over the next few decades, in which studying architecture in the U.S. was recognized as a shortcut to success in the field.

1997년 IMF 외환위기의 불확실한 경기 상황 속에서 (주)현성테크노는 완성 자동차 품질의 필수적 요소 중 하나인 프레스금형을 바탕으로 창업하였다. 이후, 현성테크노는 내수시장을 기반으로 빠른 성장을 하였으나 점차적으로 국내 금형시장의 포화상태와 금형산업의 성장 한계점에 직면하게 되었다. 이에 현성테크노는 국내 금형산업의 성장에만 안주하지 않고 적극적인 해외 투자를 통해 해외현지화 전략과 작은 기업이 큰 기업을 인수하는 독특한 인수 전략을 전개하였고 결국, 이를 통해 5개의 계열사를 가진 글로벌 복합기업으로 도약할 수 있었다. 현성테크노가 중소 제조기업에서 글로벌 복합기업으로 도약할 수 있었던 가장 큰 이유는 '보아뱀 인수 전략'의 성공 때문이다. 현성테크노의 인수 전략은 단순한 인수 사례가 아닌 2차 협력사가 1차 협력사를 인수한 국내 사상초유의 성공 사례이다. 현성테크노는 해외현지화 전략과 보아뱀 인수 전략의 성공을 통해 1999년 연 매출 10억원에서 2017년 연 매출 223억의 기업으로, 인수한 자회사인 현성오토텍은 2005년 연 매출 50억원에서 2017년 연 매출 430억원의 기업으로 성장하였다. 또한, 현재 현성테크노는 10객 30여개의 글로벌 회사와 거래를 하고 있으며, 매출의 70%를 해외수출을 통해 이루고 있다. 오늘날, 저성장의 경제 환경 속에서 대다수 중소기업이 성장의 어려움을 겪고 있는 상황에서 본 연구는 현성테크노의 성장 과정을 창업, 해외진출, 기업인수, 사업 다각화 등으로 나누어 분석하고 이에 따른 시사점을 제시하는 데에 목적이 있다.

In July 1993 a new prescription of the EC was finished, concerning the voluntary participation of enterprises in a common auditing system. By this in the EC-member countries there must be founded centers of environmental auditing where experienced experts of environmental auditing should be accredited. These accredited experts are controllers for evaluating and certification of carried out environmental-auditings. An environmental-auditing practically represents an environmental assessment for an already existing enterprise with establishing corresponding programmes and strategies for the internal management to improve the environmental relations. Much experiences, which could be collected in the field of EIA during the last years may be transfered to this new task immediately. Only an essential difference there should not be overseen because of national legislation EIA in the defined cases must be carried out. By the EC-prescription carrying out an environmental-auditing for an enterprise is optional, it is recommended only. It was not introduced as a must. In spite of this fact because of the hard competition on the market there will be developed a pressure for the enterprises, to carry out such environmental-auditings. At present already a number of first projects in this direction can be seen, in the first line above all enterprises with the necessary economic power want to use this possibility, to gain better positions on the market. We have already gathered the first experiences in this field. We arranged corresponding contacts to several enterprises within the surroundings of Dresden. Within an opening discussion, where the project is explained and discussed with the management of the enterprise very detailed, the understanding, the readiness and the cooperation for the project are generated necessary prerequesits for the success of the whole work. By means of careful detail-work in collaboration with all departments and on all levels of the enterprise the total mass and energy-balances of the factory established and analysed. There are included also such ranges like material delivery, personal policy, public relations and sale as well as waste management. It is important that all people working in the factory have the feeling to be our partners, and not to have the impression to be checked or controled by an outside organization. This one of the most important factors of environmental auditing, in order to wake up and to develop a common interest on all sides. At the end of the environmental auditing there will be according to the prescription of the EC a catalogue of measures to do immediately, short time, mean time and long time for improvement of the environmental situation of the enterprise. All proposals are made in connection with a corresponding economic evaluation. These measures and programmes are declared as the environmental manual and are the basis for the work of the environmental management of the enterprise for the next three years. According to the EC-prescription, the enterprise with this environmental manual can get a corresponding certificate, which may be used for public relation purposes.

Implant-supported fixed and removable prostheses provide a proper treatment modality with reliable success. The SS $II^{(R)}$ Implants is a one-stage nonsubmerged threaded titanium implants with Resorbable Blasting Media (RBM) surface developed by Osstem company (Busan, Korea) in October of 2002. This study is to evaluate the survival rate of the SS $II^{(R)}$ Implants for 4 years using radiographic parameters and to review the retrieved implants by the cytotoxicity tests. Since September 2003, 439 SS $II^{(R)}$ implants had been used for 173 patients at Ewha Womans University Medical Center in Korea. Patients consisted of 91 females (52.6 %) and 82 males (47.4 %). The patients' mean age was $42\;{\pm}16$ years, ranging from 21 to 83 years. The follow-up period ranged from 9 to 46 months (mean F/U $24.2\;{\pm}\;10.2$ months). The results are as follows; 1. Of 439 implants, 17 implants were removed and 4-year cumulative survival rate was 96.1%. 2. 82.3% of 17 failed implants were founded during healing phase, and 94.1% of failed fixtures were removed within 5 months after implantation. 3. Crestal bone around the implants was resorbed to 1 mm in 89.0%, to 1 - 2 mm loss of the marginal bone in 8.3%, and the bone loss over 2 mm was occurred in 2.7%. 4. Microscopic examination of the retrieved implants disclosed Grade 0 cytotoxicity in 4 and Grade 1 cytotoxicity in 2 of 6 groups divided according to LOT numbers. Inhibition rate with optical density was acceptable as low as ISO standard.

타트업의 투자 의사결정에 대한 연구들은 활발하게 이루어져 왔다. 하지만, 주로 투자자의 관점에서 연구가 되었기 때문에 피투자 기업의 전략적인 활동은 간과되어왔다. 특히, 스타트업 투자는 일시적으로 한 순간의 결정으로 이루어지는 것이 아닌, 투자 유치 진행과정을 통해 결정된다. 뿐만 아니라, 단계별로 의사결정의 핵심 요소가 달라질 수 있으므로, 스타트업의 초기 투자 유치를 이해하기 위해서는 투자자 만남에서 투자 유치 성공에 이르기까지 전 과정에 걸쳐, 스타트업 기업의 전략적 행동을 분석할 필요가 있다. 이를 위해 핀미러 기술을 활용한 증강현실 (Augumented Reality, AR) 스타트업인 (주)레티널의 사례를 통해 "어떻게" 초기 스타트업이 투자 유치에 성공할 수 있었는지, 피투자자인 스타트업 관점에서 연구하였다. 구체적으로, 본 연구에서는 스타트업이 투자를 받기 전 존재 자체를 알리기 위한 정당성 확보하는 단계를 추가시켜 기존 투자 프로세스 모델을 확장하였다. 이를 바탕으로 1) 정당성 확보, 2) 친화, 3) 검토, 4) 협상 단계 등 4단계로 투자 진행 프로세스를 나누었고, 각 단계별 주요 요인을 분석하고, 스타트업의 전략적 활동을 파악했다. 본 연구는 스타트업의 투자 유치와 관련된 복잡한 과정과 피투자자인 스타트업 기업의 성공적인 전략적 행동들을 이해하는데 많은 도움이 될 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.

새롭게 창업을 준비하는 이들과 창업을 실행 단계에 옮기고 있는 이들에게는 많은 어려움들이 존재한다. 그리고 이를 극복하는데 무엇보다 중요한 요소로서 기업가정신이 요구된다. 하지만 기업가정신에 대한 이론과 연구들은 이들 창업자들과 예비창업자들에게는 접근하고 이해하기 어려운 것이 현 실정이다. 본 연구는 이러한 기업가정신이 실제 사례에서 어떻게 적용되고 있는지, 또한, 개인적인 기업가정신 조직 기업가정신이 창업초기서부터 어떠한 영향을 미치는지에 대해 중점을 두었다. 연구의 진행은 이론적인 어려움을 실제 사례로서 해석하기 위하여 국내의 2개의 중견 중소기업을 선정하였고, 이들 기업이 각각 30년, 20년을 성장할 수 있었던 원인에 대하여 기업가정신적인 요인을 파악하였고 쉽게 간과될 수 있는 조직기업가정신적인 특성을 함께 연구하였다. 2개 기업의 사례분석 결과는 크게 3가지로 요약할 수 있다. 첫 째, 창업초기부터 내부 네트워크 시스템을 잘 정비하였다. 이러한 숙달된 내부 네트워크는 장기적으로 외부 네트워크를 통해 직접적, 간접적인 네트워크 효과를 시장에서 빠르게 얻을 수 있었다. 두 번째, 최근 확산되고 있는 기업의 조직문화에 대한 창업자 개인과 조직적 차원의 수용이 시기적으로 매우 빨랐다. 이는 중소기업이 겪을 수 있는 인적자원문제를 해결하는 기초적인 원동력이 되었다. 마지막으로 기술혁신역량이다. 창업초기 사업을 진행하면서 나타나는 재무적인 어려움에도 불구하고 기술역량의 개발에 대한 집중적인 투자를 지속하였고, 이는 수익적인 성과 이외에도 최근 강조되는 지식재산 관리까지 빠르게 수용할 수 있는 결과를 가져왔다. 이 세 가지 특성은 창업자 개인들의 기업가적인 특성이면서도 동시에 조직이 보유한 초기부터의 특성이기도 하였다. 그리고 이러한 조직기업가적인 특성이 예비 창업자들에게 창업초기부터 꾸준하게 기업을 성장시킬 수 있는 핵심 요소로 본 연구에서는 판단하였다.

The usual definition of and urban resort was a place vastly different from places of daily life such as a theme park or other tourist destination. At the same time, revival of the combination of usual and unusual spaces, in a way like the mixed "Hare"(Special occasion of public event) and "Ke"(Daily life) spaces of communities of old Japan, is part of the idea of urban resorts. And they are places, which start by making a comfortable urban environment for citizens, providing a daily life full of culture and promoting a city′s identity to visitors. if we think about the kinds of structural elements of urban resorts, the usual elements include community, local culture and industry, while the unusual elements include symbols, festivities and interaction. Kobe Wing Stadium is a venue for the 2002 FIFA World Cup hosted by Korea and Japan. The city will build the stadium, but after construction management will be given over to private enterprise, hoping to utilize that sector′s business know how. A competition was held to determine the private executor who would be entrusted with the planning, design, construction and management of the project, considering the conditions of the area, the stadium′s relationship to it and local revitalization. The competition was won by a private enterprise (Kobe Steel Obayashi Group). The them of "Creation of a Sports Community Park" grapples with the large issue of the facility′s relationship with the community. American geographer Yi-fu Tuan coined the word "topophilia" to indicate love of a place. No other word could better describe the desired urban resort nature of the stadium. From this historical perspective it seems that stadiums have great potential as urban resorts. The factor that will determine their success is the attitude of citizens toward them, in short whether they develop topophilia for them or not. We examined the urban resort nature of Kobe Wing Stadium. Regarding daily life, we saw the attempts to revive the local community, the possibility of deepening the local culture and the weakened state of local industry. As a place that is for more than daily life, we saw the certainty of the stadium′s symbolism, its potential as a place for festivities and the test it will face as a space for interaction. Even though several issues are left for future resolution, evaluating Kobe Wing Stadium through these elements of an urban resort, it is clearly founded in the daily life of the community while providing a venue for "Hare"occasions. Fulfilling the roles of an urban resort, it provides many opportunities for local residents to enjoy their and gives visitors a reason to come repeatedly.
