Recently the open innovation is considered as one of the important issues for the survival strategy of a company in the industry. There have been several researches and practices on this topic. However, previous researches are mainly focused on the study of successful cases and some statistical analyses on the relationship between the open innovation and its performance. There are rare researches on the hindrance factors in the practical level. This paper tries to find some hinderance factors for the open innovation in Korean large-scale companies based on the WFGM(Want-Find-Get-Manage) model proposed by Gene Slowinski(2006). Especially this research focused on each processes of open innovation by in-depth interviews for two representative large companies in Korea. From the result of this research we come to know that the critical hindrance factor in the WANT step is the uncertain definition of the necessary technologies for the company. Issues on establishing and maintaining the innovation network are in the FIND step. Technology evaluation, technology introduction channel and technology copying issues are in the GET step. Communication issues, technology feasibility and lack of competition are in the MANAGE step. This paper finds some hindrance factors in each process step of open innovation, which gives some implications for the companies that want to adopt open innovation.

Enterprise is focused on R&D innovative activities in order to achieve sustainable growth & secure competitive advantage. There are many factors that influence enterprise innovation performance, but enterprise innovation activities do not always have a positive effect. Therefore, this study analyzed the effects of on innovation performance, focusing on innovation acceleration factors and innovation hindrance factors. The research model analyzed 2,081 national manufacturing enterprises that responded to the 2016 Korean Innovation Survey (STEPI). SPSS 25.0 was used to perform reliability, feasibility, and logistic regression analysis. The results are as follows. First, innovation activities have positive effects on enterprise product and process innovation performance. On the other hand, government support had the opposite results. Second, the collaboration of technology showed a positive effect on product innovation performance, independent of innovation acceleration and hindrance factors. Third, innovation activities showed a positive effect on process innovation performance, regardless of the innovation acceleration and hindrance factors. Unlike prior studies limited to technological innovation, this study analyzed the attitudes of enterprises toward innovation acceleration and hindrance factors. This study is expected to contribute to establishing a strategy for reducing the failure and risk of innovation due to its findings on how innovation performance varies by groups.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effect of factors hampering innovation on firm's R&D cooperation. We classify the obstacles to innovation into lack of money and information, and also distinguish between horizontal cooperation and vertical cooperation. We argue that different obstacles have a differential effect on the types of R&D cooperation. We examined the hypotheses using KIS (Korea Innovation Survey) data. The results show that deficiency of information is positively related to both vertical and horizontal cooperation, however, lack of money is not related to firm's R&D cooperation. Based on these findings from Korean manufacturing firms, the implications of the results and future research directions are discussed.

With constant relaxation of regulations by the government in the 4th industrial innovation era, it has brought huge changes to the education environment as it has created solutions to hindrance factors against introduction of the cloud. Universities are getting more interested in the introduction of the cloud Computing but they still remain at the level of recognition diffusion and creating ambience. The study has analyzed empirical factors of the effect of introduction of the successful case "K Cyber University's Construction of Cloud-Based Remote Education System" through the previous studies on trait factors affecting the introduction of the cloud computing and the analysis of factors in terms of expandability, agility, compatibility, economic feasibility, security, stability and institutional support. Factors drawn through this are meaningful for empirical studies on presenting strategies and the directivity to introduce the cloud computing successfully. This study can be used as the background for further studies which will require various factors prior to introducing the cloud computing.

There are many studies on the adoption intentions for mobile banking. But there are no apparent effect on the popularity of it. This is so because the users have resistance to innovation on Mobile Banking. Therefore, it is necessary to identify empirically the problem of user resistance. In this paper, we identified hindrance factors of mobile banking with previous papers. And then we conducted empirical study by survey reply from undergraduates and graduate students in China. The results of this study are as follows. Social Influence and Perceived Complexity have positive effect on Perceived Risk, and Trust has negative effect on Perceived Risk. Perceived Security and Perceived Protection of Private information have no effect on Perceived Risk. Perceived Risk has effect on User Resistance. The significance of this paper is that financial institutions and telecommunications companies of China could potentially establish new and more accurate strategies based on the resistance factors identified in this paper to gain more profits.

As Korean national R&D projects have steadily grown in size, the needs of enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of the national R&D budge spending has been also discussed. Therefore, many efforts have been made to establish performance assessment system to improve the efficiency and effectiveness of the national R&D project. One example of such efforts is the stipulation of connecting the results of performance evaluation ranking of the national R&D projects with the budge allocation of for the coming fiscal year. Unlike the stipulated article in the law/regulation that 'more budge shall be allocated to a project rated over excellent grade and vice versa', however, precedent studies have been casting mixed opinions over to the effectiveness of the connection between assessment results and budge allocation. In this respect, the present study attempted to empirically examine if the laws and institutions related to the results of performance evaluation ranking of the national R&D projects with the budge allocation work properly, using panel regression analysis and quantitative data. In addition, this study investigated into the deterrent factors to the connectivity between the performance results of the national R&D projects and budge allocation and sought for a way to improve the system of performance assessment and enhance the reliability of the results by minimizing the hindrance factors.

The domestic threat information sharing system to deal with various security threats in the rapidly changing cyber environment needs to be improved. In this study, to solve these problems and promote the activation of threat information sharing, we derive a research model based on the value-based containment model (VAM) for vital factors in information sharing. After conducting a Ricardian 5-point survey on a total of 204 individuals, the statistical results of the first 151 individuals were analyzed using SPSS and AMOS, and the statistical results of the second 204 individuals were analyzed using R-Studio. As a result, perceivability was found to have a significant impact as a core factor in the activation of cyber threat information sharing (β=0.405, p<0.01), and the hindrance factor was analyzed as innovation resistance (β=-0.152, p<0.01). Microscopically, the obtained results can be applied to factor analysis for activating information sharing of cyber threats by companies in the future, and macroscopically, they can contribute to the foundational development of a national cyber threat response system.
