  • This paper, based on two engineering industry SME case studies, traces the origin and process of technological innovations enabling the development and introduction of new products leading to market expansion and enterprise growth. The study throws light on how entrepreneurs played a decisive role in recognizing market opportunities, building up crucial in-house technological capability, supplementing it with appropriate external assistance, to carry out technological innovations. A constant interaction with its customers is in-built into the system. As a result, the SMEs could achieve successful product innovations leading to their gradual growth, over time. Finally, based on the observations and inferences derived out of the two cases, a theoretical construct of the growth of innovation in SMEs is postulated. This is done linking the three stages of their development: (i) start-up and stabilizing, (ii) building up technological capability and implementing innovations; and (iii) opening up of new markets resulting in firm growth.

  • The paradigm of the corporate innovations has been changed from the intra-company innovations to the inter-company innovations. A prevalent approach to the inter-company innovations is the supply chain management. Three key words of the core concept of supply chain management are the long-term relationship, resource integration, and value creation. Specifically, it means that the supply chain management aims to make value creation through the resource integration for the supply chain entities, based on the long-term relationship between buyers and sellers. To make more effective long-term relationship among the supply chain entities, it is very important for the supply chain entities to analyze followings: i) What variables can influence the long-term relationship, ii) How these variables can influence to the long-term relationship. However, previous researches mostly deals the long-term relationship in the marketing area in fragment, and thus few research efforts have been done for the development of conceptual model using supply chain management theories. In contrast to previous studies, our research tried to develop and examine the integrative research model by introducing both the marketing theories and the supply chain management theories, and thus related hypotheses are derived. A multiple regression analysis was performed to examine the influence of the antecedents of the long-term relationship, for the 87 retailers of grocery supply chains. The empirical results confirm that cultural similarity, reputation, interdependency, and trust positively influence long-term relationship (i.e., partnership orientation and partnership symmetry). And results also confirm that the supply implementation factors such as organization integration, information system integration, and process integration playa moderating role between antecedents and long-term relationship. These findings suggest that companies should perceive the importance of managing the process, organization, information system integration in the long-term relationship implementation process as well as the factors such as cultural similarity, reputation, interdependency, and trust in the long-term relationship establishment process.

  • This study empirically examined the differences in degrees of product or process innovations according to the activation forms of all knowledge management (KM) processes (i.e., socialization, internalization, externalization, and combination), which are influenced by the usage patterns of management control systems (MCS)(i.e., interactive and diagnostic usage patterns). We empirically investigated and identified the links among usage patterns of MCS, the activation forms of KM processes, and the kinds of innovation promoted. Under high competitive conditions, it was found that the interactive usage of MCS is relatively more preferred and enhanced. However, when environmental uncertainty is high, it was shown that the diagnostic use of MCS is more emphasized. Thus, it is evident that the use patterns of MCS are determined by environmental conditions. From the results of this study, it was suggested that under high interactive use of MCS, the activation of socialization and internalization is more enhanced than the facilitation of externalization. It was also observed that when both interactive and diagnostic usage of MCS are high, KM processes are more activated and strengthened. The results indicated that under high activation of KM processes, product innovation as well as process innovation are more frequently occurred. Finally, the results of this study suggested that according to the levels of innovation openness, major innovations are more frequently occurred and promoted than minor innovations.

  • In this paper, we obtain the natural estimators of the coefficient parameters and propose strongly consistent estimators of the parameter in the autoregressive model of order three with non-negative innovations. It is shown that the natural estimators are also strongly consistent for the parameters. We also compare the proposed estimators with the natural estimators and the least square estimators via Monte Carlo simulation studies.

  • 본 논문은 한국의 환경기업 중 R&D를 수행하고 있는 기업들의 자원투입이 경영성과에 미치는 직접적인 영향을 살펴보고, 이어 제품·공정·조직·마케팅 등에서의 혁신이 자원투입과 경영성과의 관계를 매개하고 있는지 간접적인 경로와 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 위해 한국 환경기업을 대상으로 설문조사를 실시하였으며, R&D 조직을 보유한 137개 기업의 응답 자료를 대상으로 SPSS와 Process Macro를 이용하여 매개분석을 실시하였다. 분석의 결과, 첫째, 한국 R&D수행 환경기업의 자원투입은 경영성과에 직접적으로 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 둘째, 자원투입은 혁신을 매개로 하는 간접적인 경로로 경영성과에 긍정적인 영향을 미치고 있다. 셋째, 혁신 유형 중에서는 유일하게 조직혁신의 매개역할이 검증된 반면, 제품혁신, 공정혁신, 마케팅혁신의 매개효과는 나타나지 않았다. 이에 따른 정책적 시사점으로는 첫째, 한국 R&D수행 환경기업들에서 혁신이 자원투입과 경영성과를 연결하는 중요한 매개체로 분석됨에 따라, 기업이 혁신을 통해 경영성과를 제고할 수 있도록 관련 정책을 강화할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 특히 기업들이 조직혁신을 매개로 경영성과를 높이고 있는 점을 반영하면서, 제품·공정·마케팅 등에 걸친 혁신이 경영성과로 이어질 수 있도록 지원정책을 세심하게 시행할 필요가 있다. 본 연구는 기업의 실질 통계 확보가 어려워 설문을 통해 분석한 점에서 한계가 있으며, 향후 환경산업혁신체제에 대한 추가적인 연구가 필요하다.

  • Traditional intermediaries refer to service providers such as travel agents, real estate brokers, job agencies and insurance agents which matching services for buyers and suppliers in a traditional market. The introduction of Electronic commerce resulted in the automation of many tasks provided by intermediaries and seemed to eliminate the role of many traditional intermediaries, which is called disintermediation. However, depending on their market power, traditional intermediaries either will be disintermediated or fill new roles by providing added value and assistance, which is called reintermediation. According to the research of Alina M. Chircu et al. there are three conditions for reintermediation for traditional intermediaries. Three conditions are weak appropriability of EC innovations, ownership of co-specialized assets for both market intermediation and EC innovations and economies of scale. Besides these three reintermediation conditions, we hypothesize that leveraging BPO can be a suitable strategy for traditional intermediaries to be transformed into reintermediaries. Business Process Outsourcing (BPO) is the leveraging of technology or specialist process vendors to provide and manage an organization's critical and/or non-critical enterprise processes and applications. This paper will investigate the relationship between above reintermediation conditions including BPO and reintermediation.

  • Gendered innovation in Science, Technology and Innovation, which seeks better science for both men and women by integrating sex and gender analysis, has become an important issue in the entire process of STI, as initiated by the European Commission, Canadian Institutes of Health Research in Canada and the National Institutes of Health in the United States. Korea has also attempted to reflect gendered innovations in Science and Technology as a critical factor in the 3rd and 4th National Plan, followed by the Act on Women Scientists and Engineers (2002). Against this background, the aim of this study is to prioritize the policy instruments regarding gendered innovation in Research and Development. Through the Focus Group Interview (FGI) and the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP), this study attempts to set the priority among selected criteria, various types of policy instruments, and the applied research development area. As a result, this study shows the preparation of the relevant legal and institutional mechanisms for the full introduction of gendered innovation in S&T, and the importance of various policy instruments for S&T innovation in the fields of planning, budgeting, managing national R&D projects, evaluating and impact assessment, etc., being derived in a systematic way to ensure their effectiveness.

  • 마케팅관리자들이 글로벌 시장에 혁신을 성공적으로 진출시키기 위해서는 개인적 저항과 집단 저항에 대하여 이해하는 것이 중요하다. 우리가 제한하기로는 소비자들은 개인으로서, 집단의 한 구성원으로서 혁신에 저항하며, 의사결정의 다른 단계에 다른 방법으로 저항한다. 개인적인 저항은 초기저항(initial resistance)의 형태에서 시작하여 급박한 저항(emergent resistance)으로 발전하고 최종적으로는 늦은 저항(belated resistance)으로 발전한다. 또한, 개인의 도덕적 기준이 혁신수용 의사결정에 영향을 미칠 수 있다. 때때로 개인적 저항은 집단저항에 의해서 수반되거나 집단저항으로 진화한다. 우리는 혁신에 대한 소비자저항을 개인에 대하여, 개인이 속한 집단에 대하여, 다른 개인과 집단에 대하여 작용하는 사회정체감의 결과로서 생각하는 체계를 제시한다. 어떤 집단 구성원인 소비자들은 사회비교과정을 통하여 자아존중감을 증가시킨다. 소비자들이 어떤 집단에 대하여 강한 정체감을 가지고 결속하면 할수록, 내부집단 결속력과 외부집단 배타성이 더 많이 나타난다. 외부 집단 배타성은 집단 구성원들에게 외부 집단과 관련된 제품과 서비스에 대하여 강한 저항을 나타낸다. 개인적인 저항과 집단 저항은 마케팅관리자들을 위협하고 성과를 침해한다. 혁신에 대한 저항의 존재를 고려하고, 극복하려는 전략을 추구함으로써 마케팅관리자들은 이러한 위협을 새로운 기회로 전환시킬 수 있다. 소비자저항에 대한 이해는 혁신의 소비자수용에 대한 연구를 보완하고, 소비자행동의 보편적인 모형을 개발하는 데 도움이 될 수 있다.
