  • For the implementation of innovative products or services companies use different innovation strategies, in particular, outsourcing is quite widespread, given the high level of specialization and professionalism of companies that provide such services. The aim of this article was to evaluate the link between outsourcing of innovative activities and indicators of companies' efficiency. The methodology of the research includes the methods of correlation analysis and regression analysis to reveal the correlation between the use of outsourcing of innovative products and services and the turnover of the EU enterprises. The results show a high level of innovative activity of EU enterprises (50.3% innovatively active). Innovative business processes are the most widespread form of innovation activity (41% of enterprises implement business processes, and the indicator is higher than 41% in the most developed EU countries). The turnover of enterprises with new or substantially improved products was found to grow by 10.92% for the period 2016-2018. The correlation analysis shows weak direct links between the indicator of turnover growth and the number of enterprises that have independently implemented innovations, or have implemented innovations jointly with third-party companies, or using outsourcing services. The highest level of direct connection was found between the growth of turnover of enterprises that launched a new product for the market and the growth of the number of enterprises that implemented innovations with the involvement of organizations (correlation 0.273). Based on the regression analysis it was found that with a 1% change in the growth rate of the number of innovation-active enterprises, the growth rate of turnover from new or improved products increased by 5.67%. At the same time, with a 1% change in the growth rate of the number of enterprises that implement innovation through outsourcing, the growth rate of turnover from new or improved products will increase by 7.15%.

  • This study aims to analyze the effects of the smart technologies acceptance on global supply chain innovation and export performance in Korean small and medium trading companies. As the world prepares for the advent of the 4th industrial revolution the level of smart technology acceptance by Korean small and medium trading companies has not yet reached the level that is compatible with the change of international paradigm. In this respect, this study aims to promote the acceptance of smart technologies and suggest a need of more practical policy for securing international market competitiveness through innovation of global supply chain structure of Korean trading companies. According to the empirical research results, the smart technology acceptance had a significant effect on both the internal supply chain innovation and the export performance. Also, the external supply chain innovation significantly affected export performance. These results suggested that Korean trading companies need to be more active and positive in accepting smart technology so that they can gain more competitive advantage in the 4th industrial revolution era.

  • 본 논문은 국내 독립 SW기업(ISV, Independent Software Vendor)이 어떤 조건을 갖추었을때 플랫폼 생태계 참여에 더 적극적인가를 분석한 연구이다. 기업은 기술혁신의 결과를 전유할 수 있을 때와 해당 기술을 가치로 전환할 수 있는 보완자산(마케팅, 제조역량 등)을 보유한 경우 기술혁신에 적극적이다. 본 연구에서는 두 조건이 플랫폼 생태계 참여에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 또, SW기업이 보유한 제품 포트폴리오와 플랫폼의 서비스간 경쟁관계가 플랫폼 참여에 영향을 준다고 보고, 해당 요인의 영향도 분석하였다. 디지털 플랫폼 기업들과 파트너 협약을 한 국내 독립 SW기업 그리고 이에 대응하는 비슷한 수의 플랫폼 미참여 기업으로 표본집단을 구성하여 플랫폼 참여, 특허 및 개발 후 사업화 역량, 경쟁관계 등의 데이터를 취합하고 분석하였다. 분석 결과 특허 보유 여부는 플랫폼 참여에 영향을 주지 않았다. 혁신기술과 사업모델의 노출에 따른 위험보다 플랫폼 기업과 협력으로부터 발생하는 효익이 크다고 판단한 결과로 여겨진다. 반면, 사업화 역량 보유와 경쟁 관계는 플랫폼 참여에 영향을 주었다. 협력의 결과를 가치로 전환할 수 있는 사업화 역량을 보유한 경우 플랫폼 참여 가능성이 커진다. 또, 제품 포트폴리오가 플랫폼 서비스와 경쟁보다 보완관계가 될 때 협력에 적극적이다. 본 연구는 국내 독립 SW기업과 디지털 플랫폼 기업간 협력을 다룬 실증연구로서 해외에는 유사 선행 연구가 있지만 국내에는 유사한 연구사례가 없다. 플랫폼 생태계 참여 기업과 미 참여 기업을 표본집단으로 구성하여 플랫폼 생태계 참여 결정요인을 실증분석을 통해 규명하였다는 데 의의가 있다.

  • The science and technology park movement has been developing for over 60 years. The first developments simply relied on the co-location of tenant companies and the park's host to encourage technology transfer. This is in contrast with their modern counter parts which offer a range of active links between tenant companies and host organisations as well as a raft of business development services to support technology commercialisation. Many of these sites have also become important centres in regional innovation plans. In these cases they are supported by a range of local, regional and national policies that are aimed at establishing a business, technology and social environment which support innovation. The paper examines both the business development programmes developed by science and technology parks to support technology commercialisation and the macro conditions that are now being developed to support innovation.

  • Purpose - In recent times, the international trade environment has been changing rapidly, centering on the online market. In the post-COVID-19 era, small and medium-sized trading companies are facing the problem of not being properly provided with overseas market research, market trend analysis, and trade-related information. Cloud-based digital trade is being sought as an alternative to solve these problems; however, there is a lack of research on the intention to switch to digital trade among small and medium-sized trading companies. Therefore, this study empirically analyzes the intention to switch to digital trade based on the migration theory, and through this, attempts to identify each factor that affects the intention to switch to digital trade. Design/methodology - In this study, in order to identify factors influencing intention to switch to digital trade and innovation resistance of small and medium-sized trading companies, through previous research on migration theory and the PPM (Push, Pull, Mooring) model, each variable was selected for the purpose of the study. Based on this, a research model was established for the factors affecting switching to digital trade of small and medium-sized trading companies and empirically analyzed. In addition, considering the differences in the innovation propensity and maturity of information infrastructure of trading companies as the recipients of innovation, this study analyzes the moderating effect of the mooring effect and seeks ways to establish specific strategies according to the degree. Findings - As a result of empirical analysis, the pull effect was found to have the greatest influence on intention to switch to digital trade. However, the pull factor was found to have an effect on user resistance, and it was confirmed that it was a factor simultaneously inducing positive and negative consumption behaviors among users. In addition, it was found that the higher the company's innovation propensity, the higher the pull effect's influence on the intention to switch, and analysis showed that the push effect had no influence. In addition, companies with high information infrastructure maturity were expected to have a relatively high level of intention to switch compared to companies with low information infrastructure maturity, and the difference between the two groups was found not to be statistically significant. Originality/value - This study is a timely study in that it demonstrated the effect on the switching to cloud-based digital trade for small and medium-sized trading companies and that the cloud system related to digital trade is in full swing. There are academic implications in that it revealed that the pull effect is an important factor in the intention to switch to cloud service. Practical implications were presented in that small and medium-sized trading companies suggested ways to increase the value of the cloud system for switching to digital trade and a way to increase the switching ratio by minimizing the mooring effect. In addition, the study argues that active institutional support from the government is needed to activate cloud service.

  • This study uses text mining compares and contrasts consumers' social media discourses on dietary related zero-waste movement before and after COVID-19. The results indicate that the amount of buzz on social networks for the zero- waste movement has been increasing after COVID-19. Additionally, the results of frequency analysis and topic modeling revealed that subjects associated with zero-waste movement were more diversified after COVID-19. Although the results of a sentiment analysis and word cloud visualization confirmed that consumers' positive responses toward the zero-waste have been increasing, they also revealed a need to educate and encourage those who are still not aware of the need for zero-waste. Finally, consumers mentioned only a small number of companies participating in zero-waste movement on SNS, indicating that the level of active involvement by such companies is much lower than that of consumers. Theoretical and educational implications as well as those for government policy-making are considered.

  • 본 연구에서는 급진적 혁신을 수행하는 기업의 특징을 특허 데이터를 중심으로 살펴보았다. 1980년도부터 특허 정보는 기업의 성과를 측정하기 위한 중요한 지표로 활용되어 왔지만, 급진적 혁신을 대표하기는 어려웠다. 따라서 본 연구를 통하여 특허 집약 산업(Patent Active Industry)인 제약 산업에서 특허 정보가 급진적 혁신 지표로서 활용 될 수 있는지 알아보고자 하였다. 분석을 위해 약 10년간의 FDA 승인 데이터, 국외 기업의 특허 데이터를 활용하였으며 네트워크 중심성 분석(Centrality Analysis)과 비모수적 분석법인 윌콕슨 부호 순위 검정(Wilcoxon Signed Rank Test)을 실시하였다. 네트워크 분석 결과 급진적 혁신을 수행하는 기업의 경우 다른 기업들보다 대학 및 타 제약 기업과 협력 활동이 활발함을 시각적으로 확인 할 수 있었으며, 통계분석 결과 급진적 혁신을 수행하는 기업과 그렇지 않은 기업 간 연결 중심성(Degree Centrality)과 근접 중심성(Closeness Centrality)에 차이가 있음을 확인 할 수 있었다. 본 연구의 결과는 기업의 연구개발 전략 및 정책 수립에 활용 될 것을 기대하며, 향후에는 기업의 급진적 혁신에 영향을 미치는 요소가 무엇인지 정량 분석이 가능할 것이다.

  • In a knowledge economy, accelerating the pace of knowledge building and the rapid acquisition of knowledge are keys to innovative development. However, the development of the commercialization of research results and formation of new start-up companies are often not as active as they should be with a lack of motivation and incentive being one of the contributing factors for the failure to take action. In Taiwan and Japan, the reason that widely advocated idea of industry-academia collaboration is to help advance the technological capabilities of research and development as well as produce economic benefit. The assistance rendered by the government during the transformation and the assessment of outcomes from entrepreneurial pursuits are key issues explored in this study. The results indicate that the network system in the national innovation system is important for entrepreneurship development. The domestic market of Taiwan is not as large as Japan and new entrepreneurs have to face global market challenges.

  • 이 연구는 대전지역의 중소벤처기업을 중심으로 혁신클러스터 활동(구성원간의 관심과 관계성, 정보교류와 정보습득 활동, 수요와 공급 간의 해결 활동)이 기업 경영성과에 미치는 영향을 연구하고, 관련 정책에 대한 시사점을 제시하는데 목적이 있다. 이를 위해 대전지역 소재 중소벤처기업 CEO 212명의 설문결과를 확보하고 SPSS 21을 이용하여 연구가설을 검증하였다. 실증분석결과 구성원 간의 정보교류 및 정보습득 활동과 수요와 공급자 간의 해결 활동은 경영성과에 긍정적인 관계가 확인되었으나, 구성원 간의 관심과 관계성은 경영성과에 영향이 없음이 확인되었다. 본 연구를 통해 혁신클러스터내의 기업들이 지속적인 성장과 발전을 위해서는 혁신클러스터 활동에 적극적인 참여와 정부의 다양한 지원제도나 정책 등이 확대되어야 하고, 기업들은 상호간의 만족도를 높이거나, 협력을 위한 공감대 형성을 위해 더욱 분발하고 노력을 해야 할 것이다. 부족한 관심과 관계성을 높이기 위해 혁신클러스터 기업협회들은 다양한 프로그램을 통해 구성원 간의 관계 개선을 위해 노력해야 한다는 시사점을 제시하였으며, 향후 다양한 혁신클러스터 활동의 매개변수에 대한 추가분석을 통해 경영성과 간의 체계적인 이론을 정립할 필요가 있다.
