Innovation has been considered not only an important factor for creating and maintaining the competitiveness of nations but also a key determinant of enterprises performance in over the world. Innovation is the process by which an enterprise develops new products, services, processes or management systems to meet requirements due to the change of business environment, technology. The results of implementing innovation increase capacity of the business, thereby helping the business to develop sustainably in the face of market trends and competition from competitors. This paper aims to explore the current status of innovation activities as well as proposes solutions to develop innovation activities for Vietnamese enterprises. The proposed solutions in this study paper create a premise to improve the competitiveness and sustainable growth of enterprises in the context of deeper and more comprehensive international economic integration.

Although the importance of the service sector has been highlighted recently, service innovation remain under-researched by scholars. Innovation research based on manufacturing sector suggests that innovation strategy varies according to the objectives of innovation and has a positive influence on firm performance. To investigate the path that links the objectives of innovation, innovation strategy used and firm performance, this study develops a conceptual model of service innovation from the literature and tests the Structural Equation Model(SEM) using STEPI (Korea's Science and Technology Policy Institute) data. We could identify the causal relationships both between the objectives of innovation and innovation strategy and between innovation strategy and firm performance in service as in manufacturing, but we also found that the results of the empirical study for the service industry, in particular, the empirical results on the relationship between the aims of innovation and innovation strategy used, are quite different from those for manufacturing.

This study examines how green operations affect firm's environmental performance with green innovation as a mediator in the context of electronic industry. We carry out an empirical study with 141 valid questionnaires collected from high-tech manaufactures in Taiwan. The results show that positive relationships exist among green operations, green innovation and environmental performance (in both operational performance and managerial performance). However, an integration of green operations with green innovation would influence firm's environmental performance more positively than the sole effects of green operations. It suggests that high-tech manufacturers should pay greater attention to green innovative strategies in order to cope with customer demand and, thereby, enhancing customer satisfaction and sustainable operations. This study has contributed to the extant literature by providing valuable academic references and pragmatic guidelines for firms to gain competitive advantages through green operations and green innovation.

At the 8th National High-Performance Computing (HPC) Committee convened in 2021, the "National High-Performance Computing Innovation Strategy (draft) for the 4th Industrial Revolution Era" was deliberated and the original draft was approved. In this proposal, the Ministry of Science and ICT in KOREA announced three major plans and nine detailed projects with the vision of "Realizing the 4th industrial revolution quantum jumping by leaping into a high-performance computing powerhouse." Thereby the most important policy about national mid-term and long-term HPC development was established and called the HPC innovation strategy (hereinafter "the innovation strategy"). The three plans of the innovation strategy proposed by the government are: Strategic HPC infrastructure expansion; Secure source technologies; and Activate innovative HPC utilization. Each of the detailed projects has to be executed nationally and strategically. In this paper, we propose a strategy for the implementation of two items ("Strategic HPC infrastructure expansion" and "activate innovative HPC utilization") among these detailed plans.

새로운 기술개발과 신제품 출시에는 막대한 연구개발비가 필요하고, 시장의 불확실성도 존재한다. 이에 비해 우리나라의 수출기업들은 선진기업에 비해 연구개발 투자비의 절대규모가 작고 누적 기술자산도 부족한 실정이다. 그러므로 개방형 혁신을 통해 외부의 기술을 활용하고 상대적으로 적은 연구개발 투자비의 효율성을 제고할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 우리나라 수출기업의 혁신활동에 따른 각각의 영향요인을 도출하고, 이러한 혁신활동이 수출성과에 어떠한 영향을 미치는가를 분석하고자 하였다. 이를 위해 먼저 혁신활동을 폐쇄형 혁신활동과 개방형 혁신활동으로 구분하고, 혁신활동의 영향요인인 기업특성요인, 연구특성요인, 상품특성요인을 독립변수로, 수출성과를 종속변수로 하는 다중회귀분석을 실시하였다. 회귀분석결과 기업규모, 신상품 출시기간은 혁신활동 각각에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 연구역량과 연구성과는 폐쇄형 혁신활동에만 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 또한 개방형 혁신활동은 수출성과에 유의한 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으나, 폐쇄형 혁신활동은 수출성과에는 유의한 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다.

The paper assesses the innovative performance and challenges that a small innovative country like Sweden faces in an era of intense global competition. We contrast innovative performance with similar countries in Europe as well as discus the reliability and validity of indicators used to shape policy development. The conclusion from the analysis shows that available input-output indicators must be used with some caution. Even if the supply and quality of indicators has increased for policy analysis, they still lack precision and validity to make broad claims about the innovative performance of companies and nations. It is argued that understanding knowledge flows (rather than simple input-output metrics) are a key to understand innovation processes for small countries at the innovation frontier; subsequently, small countries will have to abandon failed policy orthodoxies in order to cope with future policy challenges.

The purpose of this study is to introduce the limit of previously used six sigma quality process evaluation metrics, $Z_{st}$ and $P_{pk}$, and a solution to overcome this drawback by using a metric based on performance evaluation of Z-factor quality innovation. Case analysis on projects from national six sigma contest from 2011 to 2012 is performed and literature review on new drug development HTS (High Throughput Screening) is used to propose innovative performance evaluation metrics. This research shows that experimental study on six sigma evaluation metric, $Z_{st}$ and $P_{pk}$, have no significance difference between industrial type (Manufacturing, Semi-Public Institute, Public Institute) and CTQ type (Product Technology Type CTQ, Process Technology Type CTQ). Following discovery characterize this quality improvement as fixed target type project. As newly developed moving target type of quality innovation performance metric Z-Factor is used for evaluating experimental study, hypothetical analysis suggests that $Z_{st}$ and $P_{pk}$ share different relationship or even show reciprocal relationship. Constraints of the study are relatively small sample size of only 37 projects from past 2 years and conflict on having interview and communication with six sigma quality practitioner for qualitative experimental study. Both moving target type six sigma innovation project and fixed target type improvement project or quality circle enables efficient ways for a better understanding and quality practitioner use by applying quality innovation performance metric. Downside of fixed target type quality performance evaluation metric, $Z_{st}$ and $P_{pk}$, is presented through experimental study. In contrast, advantage of this study is that high throughput requiring product technology, process technology and quantum leap typed innovation effect is evaluated based on precision and accuracy and Z-Factor that enables relative comparison between enterprises is proposed and implemented.

본 연구는 기업가지향성과 흡수역량이 중소기업의 성과에 미치는 영향을 제품혁신성과의 매개효과를 중심으로 분석한다. 구조방정식 모델을 활용하여 중소기업의 기업성과에 중요한 영향을 미치는 기업가지향성과 흡수역량이 제품혁신성과(제품속도, 제품품질)를 매개로 성과에 이르는 경로를 규명한다. 실증연구를 위해 대전테크노파크 입주기업 등 총 1,775개 중소기업을 대상으로 설문조사를 시행하여 수집한 설문지 233부의 응답 내용을 구조방정식 모형을 활용하여 분석하였다. 실증분석결과 흡수역량과 기업가지향성이 제품혁신성과를 매개로 성과에 긍정적 영향을 주는 것으로 나타났다. 기업가지향성과 흡수역량이 높을수록 제품속도와 제품품질을 높이고 제품혁신성과가 기업의 성과로 연결되고 있음을 알 수 있다. 따라서 기업의 전략 측면과 외부 정보 활용 역량 측면에서 기업가지향성과 흡수역량이 제품혁신성과를 높이고, 제품혁신성과가 기업의 성과로 이어진다고 볼 수 있다. 이러한 분석결과는 외부환경에 대응하여 우수한 품질의 제품을 더 빠르게 창출하여 성과를 높이는 데 기업의 전략과 외부 정보를 흡수 활용하는 흡수역량이 중요함을 시사하고 있다.
