The purpose of this study was to draw policy implications for the development and expansion of Korea's forest ODA through investigating the perceptions of stakeholder on the fields that contributed the development of forestry in Korea and would have competitiveness in developing countries and priority fields for Korea's forest ODA. For this, the survey was conducted for 248 subjects from the general and expert stakeholder groups. Chi-square test in cross analysis, independent sample t-test, ANOVA and Duncan test were conducted to compare the difference of perceptions by group. The whole general and expert groups consider that 'forest conservation and rehabilitation' contributed to the development of Korea's forestry most and consider its global competitiveness most high. Comparing expert groups, ODA experts evaluated the competitiveness of 'capacity building for policies, institutions and research' higher than the forestry experts. For priority fields of Korea's forest ODA, general groups perceived 'management of CERs' and 'conservation of biodiversity' most important, showing the clear difference in perception compared to that of experts. In Conclusion, for the effective forest ODA of Korea, the effort to fill the gap between the general and expert groups needs to be made, as well as developing forestry capacity building programs to cope with the fields such as climate change adaptation and biodiversity conservation, which is newly required in a global society, in addition to using the past experience of forest rehabilitation in Korea. It will be useful for the rehabilitation of North Korea's forest in the future.

As UAE has witnessed tremendous growth and diversification in its economy, logistics in particular has had great success as one of the first logistics clusters and hub to develop global business competitiveness but a few data and practical study related with logistics business competitiveness have existed due to lack of the openness in the region. In this sense, the purpose of this study was to carry out competitive analysis between UAE and not only major Middle East countries and but also Global countries using Porter's Diamond model. As a result of analysis with Middle East Countries such as Saudi Arabia, Qatar, UAE gained the highest score in factor conditions followed by logistics conditions, supported industries and demand conditions. UAE also is required to reduce cost and time of logistics process and get higher ease of international shipment, logistics competency and logistics timeliness. The logistics data set released from international and reputable bodies like WEF, OECD and IMD will assist to analyses logistics competitiveness among hub countries in future studies.

This study aims to review the competitiveness of 'TVING', a Korean OTT player in Korean market. For this, this study extracts core business resources of TVING focusing on resource-based theory, and analyzes their competitiveness under VRIO framework. TVING has 4 tangible and intangible resources respectively and 1 human resource. Tangible resources of TVING are technology(recommendation, compression), content(original, exclusive, discriminative non-exclusive), production studio, and paid-subscribers. Intangible resources are content planing capability, distribution network(local, global), marketing promotion·PR, sales), brand preference. And human resource of TVING creates IP professionalism of the company. As a result of VRIO analysis, discriminative non-exclusive content, production studios, and domestic service channels are the most powerful resources of TVING to 'sustain competitive advantage'. Technology, original content, planning capability and IT professionalism bring 'temporary competitive advantage', while exclusive content, the number of paid-subscribers, global service network, and promotion capabilities are not core resources with staying in competitive rank stages. By the way, TVING has potential users for sales of KT and LGU+ thanks to partnership and M&A, but this is not effectively used at the organization level yet. The meaning of this study can be found in that this evaluated competitiveness by each resource of TVING and arranged its implications.

This study assesses Incheon Metropolitan City's potential as a global logistics hub amid intensified competition since the 2000s. Utilizing Importance-Performance Analysis(IPA), it evaluates competitive factors for logistics hub cities and Incheon's current positioning. The research identifies world-class infrastructure development and global city connectivity as key competitiveness factors. While Incheon, with its international airport and port, currently functions as a logistics hub, areas for improvement emerge. Recommendations include developing specialized cargo infrastructure for cold-chain and e-commerce, expanding the global network through multimodal transportation, and addressing gaps in smart and eco-friendly logistics. These suggestions encompass professional training, information platform establishment, and sector-wide decarbonization initiatives. The study's significance lies in its IPA-driven evaluation of competitiveness factors and Incheon's status, providing actionable recommendations for strategic planning to enhance the city's position as a global logistics hub.

Technology transfer is recognized as a critical issue to strengthen industri competitiveness in today's global and knowledge-based economies. The vertical transfer of technology from R&D labs to industries is becoming more emphasized than the horizontal company-to-company transfer of commercialized technology. The network and cooperation among technology transfer intermediaries are becoming more important with the increasing demand of the comprehensive technology transfer services. This paper presents the configuration models for technology transfer from universities and research institutes to industries. The configuration models are classified and discussed from the viewpoint of information flow, and also technology and knowledge transfer.
