  • 본 연구는 판교 테크노벨리를 대상으로 결속형 및 교량형 사회적 자본이 산업단지 내 기술적 혁신성과에 미치는 영향을 고찰하였다. 특히 본 연구에서는 사회적 자본의 선행요인으로 "정보기술활용"의 역할에 주목하였다. 정보기술을 활용함으로써 내·외부 구성원과의 커뮤니케이션 및 정보교환이 활성화되고 이에 다양한 관계망을 확장시켜 네트워크화 할 수 있기 때문이다. 연구결과 정보기술 활용은 결속형 자본과 교량형 자본에 모두 긍정적 영향을 미치는 것으로 검증되었다. 하지만 사회적 자본이 기술적 혁신성과에 미치는 영향에 있어서는 뚜렷한 차이가 발견되었다. 판교 테크노벨리의 경우 신뢰나 협력을 중심으로 한 강한 결속 관계보다는 다양한 네트워크를 통해 형성되는 교량형 자본의 효과가 기술적 혁신 성과에 유의하게 작용하고 있음을 알 수 있었다. 이러한 현상은 판교 테크노벨리의 구조적 특성상 IT기반의 기업들이 대부분 입주되어 있으며 비교적 쉽게 정보를 공유하며 다양한 사람들과 자연스럽게 네트워크가 형성되는 특성에 기인한다고 해석된다.

  • 이 논문은 혁신성, 진취성, 위험감수성으로 대표되는 기업가정신이 일반인에 비해 투철한 기업가들의 인지편향이 사회적 네트워크에 따라 사업 기회 평가에 미치는 영향을 조사한 것이다. 끊임없이 요구되는 기업활동과 관련한 의사결정 시 기업가들은 자신의 지식과 경험 및 외부 전문가들의 조언을 참고하여 합리적인 판단을 하는 것이 일반적이나, 극심한 스트레스 상황 및 신속한 의사결정이 필요한 상황에서는 자신의 인지편향에 따라 휴리스틱(간편 추론법)에 종종 의존하게 된다. 특히, 기업의 성장과 영속성을 담보하기 위해 계획 중인 신사업 기회를 평가하고 선택하는 과정에서도 휴리스틱에 의한 의사결정을 한 나머지 실패하게 되는 사례를 우리는 많이 접하게 된다. 이 연구는 거듭된 성공 경험으로 형성된 기업가의 인지편향이 때로는 사업의 실패라는 부작용을 초래할 수 있다는 점에 착안하여, 기업가의 인지편향이 신사업 기회 평가에 미치는 영향을 규명하는 연구가 필요하다는 요구에서 진행하게 되었다. 그동안 대학생이나 창업을 희망하는 일반인을 대상으로 그들의 인지편향이 창업 및 기회 평가에 미치는 영향에 관한 논문은 다수 있지만, 기업가만을 대상으로 하여 사회적 네트워크와의 관계를 규명한 연구는 부족하다는 문제점이 있었다. 이 연구는 선행연구와는 달리 기업가들만을 대상으로 실증적인 조사를 시행하였으며, 사회적 네트워크와의 관계에 관한 연구도 함께 진행하였다. 연구를 위하여 중소/중견기업 기업가 150명을 대상으로 온라인 모바일 조사와 응답자의 자기기입식 설문지를 이용한 병행 조사 방법으로 설문조사를 실시하였다. 연구 결과, 독립변수인 기업가의 인지편향 중 과잉자신감과 통제 착각이 사업 기회 평가에 통계적으로 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 조절 변수인 사회적 네트워크는 과잉자신감이 사업 기회 평가에 미치는 영향을 조절한다는 것이 확인되었다. 이 연구는 기업가들이 인지편향을 긍정적으로 활용할 수 있는 방법과 사회적 네트워크의 영향력을 알려줌으로써, 기업가들이 신사업 기회를 평가하고 선택하는 과정에서 인지편향이 어떠한 역할을 하는지와 기업가의 인지편향이 신사업 기회 평가와 관련한 구조적 관계를 사회적 네트워크가 조절하는 역할을 한다는 것을 보여주었고, 기업가들뿐만 아니라 기업가 교육 및 정책 결정에도 큰 도움이 될 것으로 기대한다.

  • 한국 경제에서 창업·벤처기업의 중요성이 커지고 있다. 이 연구는 창업·벤처기업의 성장을 포함하여 창업·벤처 생태계가 성장하고 있는지 측정하였다. 창업·벤처 생태계는'생태계'의 주요 행위자인 창업·벤처기업, 투자기관, 정부로 구성하고, 이들의 주요 활동을 정량적 지표 25개로 측정하였다. 창업·벤처 생태계 지수는 25개 지표의 2010~2018년의 시계열 원자료를 토대로 종합주가지수 방식과 AHP를 통한 가중치를 적용하여 산출하였다. 2018년 창업·벤처 생태계는 2010년에 비해 2.1배 성장하였으며, 정부 지수의 증가가 성장에 큰 영향을 미쳤다. 2018년 각각의 지수를 구성하는 개별지표를 보면, 기업 지수는 천억 벤처기업의 수, 투자 지수는 회수금액, 정부 지수는 모태펀드 출자금액이 성장에 가장 큰 영향을 주었다. 원자료를 토대로 창업·벤처 생태계 지수를 생태계별(창업생태계와 벤처생태계), 업종별(전업종과 제조업), 지역별(전국과 부산)로 구분하여 분석하였다. 그 결과, 지난 8년간 창업생태계의 성장이 벤처생태계의 성장 보다 근소한 차이로 컸다. 제조업 창업·벤처 생태계는 전업종 보다 낮게 나타났으며, 예시로 살펴본 부산의 창업·벤처 생태계 지수는 전국 보다 낮게 나타났다. 이 연구는 창업·벤처 생태계 지수를 개발 및 측정하여 모니터링 함으로써 지원 정책의 수립 및 시행에 활용하고자 했다. 이 지수는 주요 행위자 간의 상호관계를 파악해 볼 수 있으며, 공식적인 통계조사 결과를 활용하여 누구라도 지수를 산출할 수 있는 장점이 있다. 향후에도 지수를 지속적으로 모니터링하여 경제사회적 사건이나 정책적 지원이 창업·벤처 생태계에 어떤 영향을 미쳤는지 파악할 필요가 있다.

  • Over the last $15{\sim}20$years, many countries have adopted policies of railway privatization to keep up with increasing competition from road and air transport. Although each country and case has its own history, market characteristics, political context as well as administrative process, railway privatizations (including railway restructure, concession etc.) in the west usually are accompanied with the establishment of new regulatory regimes. Therefore, railway governance has been innovating towards an interaction of government, regulator, industry bodies, user groups, trade unions and other interested groups within the regulatory framework. However, it is not the case in China. Although China had seen a partial privatization in some branch lines and is experiencing a much larger-scale privatization by establishing joint-ventures to build and operate high-speed passenger lines and implementing an asset-based securitization program, administrative control still occupies absolutely dominant position in the railway governance in China. Ministry of Railway (MOR) acts as the administrator, operator as well as regulator. There is no national policy that clearly positions railway in the transportation network and clarifies the role of government in railway development. There is also little participation from interested groups in the railway policy making, pricing, service standard or safety matter. Railway in China is solely governed by the mere executive agency. Efficiency-focused economic perspective explanation is far from satisfaction. A wider research perspective from political and social regime is of great potential to better explain and solve the problem. In the west, separation and constrains of power had long been established as a fundamental rule. In addition to internal separation of political power(legislation, execution and jurisdiction), rise of corporation in the 19th century and association revolution in the 20th century greatly fostered the growth of economic and social power. Therefore, political, social and economic organizations cooperate and compete with each other, which leads to a balanced and resonable power structure. While in China, political power, mainly party-controlled administrative power has been keeping a dominated position since the time of plan economy. Although the economic reform promoted the growth of economic power of enterprises, it is still not strong enough to compete with political power. Furthermore, under rigid political control, social organizations usually are affiliated to government, independent social power is still too weak to function. So, duo to the limited and slow reform in political and social regime in China, there is an unbalanced power structure within which political power is dominant, economic power expanding while social power still absent. Totally different power structure in China determines the fundamental institutional environment of her railway privatization and governance. It is expected that the exploration of who act behind railway governance and their acting strength (a power theory) will present us a better picture of railway governance as a relevant transportation mode. The paper first examines the railway governance in China and preliminarily establishes a linkage between railway governance and its fundamental institutional environment, i.e. power structure in a specific country. Secondly, the reason why there is no national policy in China is explored in the view of political power. In China, legislative power is more symbolic while party-controlled administrative power dominates political process and plays a fundamental role in Chinese railway governance. And then, in the part three railway finance reform is analyzed in the view of economic power, esp. the relationship of political power and economic power.

  • Digital technology has become a new economic and social force, reshaping traditional business models, strategies, structures, and processes. This is a challenge for human capital to develop continuously in this dynamic era; one of the solutions is digital entrepreneurship. Digital entrepreneurship focuses on creating new ventures and transforming existing businesses by developing novel digital technologies or novel usage. Further, digital technology has also enabled the growth of the sharing economy, linking owners and users, and disrupting the previous dualism of businesses and customers. This paper provides a novel contribution regarding the emerging concept of Digital Entrepreneurship. Based on a qualitative literature review and interview with university staff, lecturers, and students in four large public and private universities in West Java and DIY Province, an interpretative framework for Digital Entrepreneurship has been proposed, which comprises of the following components: motivation (the rationale for the adoption of digital technology for academic entrepreneurship), stakeholders (the stakeholders involved through digital technology to achieve the academic entrepreneurship goal), process (the processes of academic entrepreneurship supported by digital technologies), and business form (the emerging forms of digital academic entrepreneurship). This research also shows several alternative government policies to improve digital entrepreneurship in the academic environment.

  • While there exists voluminous literature on the internationalization of the firms, it has focused on mature firms or born-global firms. There is still a lack of research on firm that is in the growth stage between venture and mature firm. To fill this gap, this paper focuses on the newly public firm which is enter the stock market through initial public offerings (IPO). Specifically, I examine the relationship between the early listing and internationalization. In the venture firm aspect, the decision of the IPO necessary to allow to change organization structure, ownership and take a risk from environmental movements. This paper suggests early listing is a behavior of entrepreneur orientation. According to empirical results, there is a positive relationship between early listing and internationalization. It implies that early listing may help international expansion by sourcing finance, reputations from market. Furthermore, this study emphasizes the importance of financial slack resources to international expansion. I conclude that ventures need not only early entering in stock market but also securing sufficient financial slack resources to achieve sustainable growth in the international market.

  • Various information and communication technologies (ICT) and electronic government (e-Government) projects have been planted in hopes of economic and social growth in developing economies. These types of ventures usually involve working in societies with their own unique cultures in various aspects that often cause "custom ways" of planning, implementing, coordinating, and controlling in IT projects, thus playing a grand role in determining the success of IT projects. Due to a lack of understanding of local cultural factors and a deficiency of cultural risk evaluation models, however, many IT projects especially in the context of developing economies face failure. This study investigates the major cultural factors involved in IT projects and their effects on IT projects in developing economies. The framework is validated using the United Nations Development Programme's (UNDP) information and communication technology (ICT) and e-Government project cases of two countries in Central Asia, Uzbekistan and Kazakhstan. This study will help project managers develop management practices and strategies associated with the cultural factors they face during the various stages of their IT projects in their specific contexts.

  • There is a growing interest on entrepreneurship for undergraduate students to enhance their employment ratio because they have big difficulty in getting a job in Korea as well as Vietnam. Currently, on-line business is booming because customers feel convenience in approaching on-line store. Therefore, this study has explored identifying the factors to affect entrepreneurial intention of being e-commerce trader for the undergraduates in Korean universities as well as Vietnam universities. In addition to this, the study has also investigated the difference of the results between Korea and Vietnam. The results of the study are as follows ; First, entrepreneurial knowledge affects positively on entrepreneurial intention for being e-commerce trader. Second, employment barrier also affects positively on entrepreneurial intention for being e-commerce trader. Third, social perception on entrepreneurship mediates the relationship between employment barrier and entrepreneurial intention for being e-commerce trader. Lastly, the level of entrepreneurial intention for vietnam undergraduate students shows higher than that of Korean undergraduate students. Since there was lack of recognition as to the importance for entrepreneurial intention of being e-commerce trader in Korea, Korean government can refer to the results of this survey and implement the related policies to enhance related entrepreneurial intention. This indicates that when it comes to the establishment of new ventures in Korea, entrepreneurial education has been the focus of interest such as making business plan, setting up strategy, marketing the products etc. In this regard, this research is expected to be used for the development for the future policies to boost youth entrepreneurship in Korea.

  • Koreans have emphasized education as the primary means to reconstruct our country means to reconstruct our country after two catastrophic events-the Japanese occupation and the Korean War(1950-1953). A Strong belief- in education coupled with sheer deter-mination spurred the period of industrial and eeonomic development that started in the early 1970-'s. The "can-do" attitude of the general public was matched and aided by small S & T communities. Scientists and engineers provided the neeessary expertise to manufacture goods and process the many raw materials imported from overseas. After nearly three decades of reconst-ructing our completely devastated country, Korea has become a modern, cosmo-politan, fast-paced and dynamic country. In order to further increaser our manufac- turing capabilities and double the per-capita income by the beginning of the 21st century, we must improve productivitiy and encourage creatitivity in all sectors of our country. The S & T community's efforts in research and development. education, and interna-tional cooperation will be invaluable in determining our direction and reaching these goals. The general public is eager to peacefully unite our foreign powers since 1945. Toward that end. members of the S & T community are willing to coope-rate with our north Korean counterparts in all areas of S & T with the exception of defense related endeavors. Establi-shing scientific ties with north Korea will result in mutual economic benefit and greater regional stability in East Asia. In particular. scientists and manu-facturers in each province are eager to initiate cordial and professional relation-ships with north Korea in the hopes of securing these benefits. The Korean Federation of Science and Technology Societies(KOFST) has played an important role both in developing S & T policies, and in gostering the frowty of S & T societies. A non-governmental umbrella organization composed of over 251 professional societies, KOFST facili-tates the transfer of research outcomes and technology from research institutions to the various industries. KOFST also seeks to increase cooperation between the countries of the Pacific Rim. As evidence of that, we have pursued joint research and industrial ventures with China. Established projects include those on environmental conditions in the Yellow Sea, and improvement of aircraft manufacturing, telecommunica-tion equipment, and agricultural produ-cts. Increased cooperation between the Pacific Rim countries, particularly in S & T, would foster social and economic development for the region as a whole.

  • Purpose - Entrepreneurship promotion is emerging as an important economic growth agenda. However, in Korea, entrepreneurship has weakened because of the collapse of the venture bubbles of the 2000s and the global economic recession in 2008, which have induced the business community to choose stability over risk. The Korean government has been implementing several support projects to inspire and promote youth entrepreneurship through various means including financial assistance; however, the perpetuation rate of young entrepreneurship is still low as compared to advanced economies such as the US and EU. This case study focuses on the Youth Start-Up Business Support Program of the Small & Medium Business Corporation, and explores practical alternatives. Further, it aims to suggest managerial factors and a conceptual model for change management factors affecting the business performance creation of a startup company, based on the Small and medium Business Corporation's young venture startup fund. Research design, data, and methodology - Many studies examine the current progress and issues of startup firms, for example, a lack of systematic cultivation of entrepreneurship and startup business training, lack of commercialization funding for youth startup businesses, lack of mentoring, and inadequate infrastructure. From prior research, we address four factors, namely, personal managerial capabilities, innovative business model, sufficient cash flow, and social network, affecting startup companies' business performance. This study involved a sample survey of 200 young entrepreneurs to investigate casual relations between the four factors and business performance. A regression analysis was used to verify the hypotheses. Results - First, in relation to differences in the founder's personal characteristics, age, sales amount, and number of employees significantly impact business performance. Second, regarding the causal relation between the four factors for creating business performance, an innovative business model and social networking have supported the hypotheses, revealing that the more that a start-up founder has an innovative business model and social networking, the more the start-up firms are likely to have better performance (e.g., sales volume, employment, ROE, ROI, etc.). Although the founder's competency and sufficient cash flow have no significant relationship with business performance, the mean value was higher performance for high founder's competency and sufficient cash flow. Conclusions - This study provides basic data on policy support strategies of the Small and Medium Business Corporation, to help young entrepreneurs achieve their start-up business goals. It shows that young entrepreneurship startup firms should strive to explore ideas to satisfy customers' needs, and that changes in customer value and the continuous innovation of business model differentiation are required to actively respond to change management. Moreover, at the infant startup stage, they should activate social network programs to share information, thereby offsetting resource scarcity and managing business risk. Further, the establishment of a long-term vision and the implementation of training programs in related specific fields should be supported to strengthen founders' personal capabilities.
