본 논문은 중소기업학회 창립 40주년을 맞이하여 중소기업연구에 게재된 논문들을 통해 중소기업연구 40년의 역사적 흐름을 조명하고 미래 중소기업연구의 방향을 고찰해보고자 수행되었다. 특히 중소벤처기업정책 및 중소벤처기업의 전략적 경영 측면에 집중하여 해당 주제와 관련해 게재된 논문을 대상으로 내용을 분석하고, 시사점과 향후 연구방향을 모색하는데 기여하고자 한다. 1979년부터 2019년까지 중소기업연구에서 다룬 중소벤처기업정책 및 중소벤처기업의 전략적 경영 부문의 연구 동향을 분석하기 위해 연구주제, 연구방법, 연구자 등을 기준으로 시기별, 항목별로 구분하여 분석하였으며, 주요 분석결과는 다음과 같다. 첫째, 총 1,056편의 연구논문 중 중소벤처기업정책 및 전략적 경영을 주제로 한 연구논문은 전체 연구 중 약 14%, 11%의 비율을 보였다. 둘째, 연구주제 측면에서 중소벤처기업정책 부문에서는 자금 및 창업·벤처 관련 정책 연구의 비중이 높았고, 전략적 경영 부문에서는 국제화 전략에 대한 연구가 가장 많이 수행되었다. 셋째, 1980년대에까지는 질적연구가 더 큰 비중을 보였으나, 1990년대 이후 양적연구의 비율이 증가하기 시작해 이후로는 질적연구보다 양적연구가 많이 이루어졌다. 넷째, 지난 40년간 중소벤처기업정책 및 전략적 경영 부문에서 연구논문을 가장 활발히 발표한 기관은 한양대학교, 경북대학교, 건국대학교 등이었으며 연구소의 연구 참여는 다소 미흡했다. "중소기업연구"의 지속적인 발전을 위한 본 연구의 주요 시사점은 다음과 같다. 첫째, 연구주제 측면에서 중소벤처기업의 정책 연구와 전략적 경영에 대한 연구 간 연계성을 제고할 필요가 있다. 둘째, 연구방법 측면에서 보다 다양성을 추구하여야 한다. 셋째, 중소벤처기업과 관련된 공공 및 민간 연구소의 학회 참여율을 높일 필요가 있다.

Micro small business start-ups are receiving financial and marketing support from government or public authority, but business closure rate is very high and it causes a hugh burden to households and national economy. This study aims to verify the causal relationship between the self-determination characteristic of small business start-ups and entrepreneurial intention through learning orientation and innovation ability. The man's intrinsic motivation of self-determination theory is expected to have an impact on the entrepreneurial intention of small business start-ups. The self-determination theory includes perceived autonomy, perceived competence, perceived relationship as independent variables. This study presented a research model for explaining the entrepreneurial intention of small business start-ups, and collected 260 survey responses from the small business start-ups In order to validate the proposed research model, PLS analysis is performed with valid 246 questionnaires. By PLS technique, the measurement reliability and validity of research variables are tested and the path analysis is conducted to do the hypothesis test. Path analysis shows that perceived autonomy does not significantly affect the learning orientation and innovation ability. On the other hand, perceived competence significantly influences learning orientation and innovation ability. Perceived relationships had significant influence on learning orientation. It is found that the parameters of learning orientation and innovation ability significantly influence the dependent variable of entrepreneurial intention. Based on the results, a policy and strategy for supporting small business start-up are presented.

The Small and Medium Enterprise is currently getting more attention from the Indonesian government as the contribution of this sector to the regional and national income has increased. Though the government is providing a lot of attention as well as facilities to the small businesses in the manufacturing sector, they face intense competition. Thus, the small enterprises need to ensure that they achieve good business performance. This research aims to investigate the role of entrepreneurial intensity and innovation in improving the performance of small businesses in Indonesia. For this purpose, one hundred and eighty-six small business owners participated in the survey. The data was analyzed using Structural Equation Modelling. The hypothesis results show that entrepreneurial intensity and innovation have a proven role in business performance of small enterprises. Entrepreneurial intensity in particular, significantly impacts innovation and exploration. And innovation is crucial for business performance. The results imply that to increase business performance, the owner and the manager also need to raise their entrepreneurial spirit, as it can enhance their willingness to explore and use their business experience to do more innovation activities. The more innovation is done by the company; the business performance is more likely to improve.

There hardly have been support policies for small wholesale vendors or any materials such as proper statistical standards and figures compared to diversity of support policies and size of budget for small and medium manufacturing business. The biggest concern coming from it is that there have never been any policies for small and medium wholesale vendors. This study proposes some ways to improve support policies through investigating the current status of those vendors as their true values haven't been properly recognized, while diverse support systems have been devised for manufacturing business thanks to the traditional industrial development process. According to the study on support policies for domestic and international small and medium wholesale vendors, I realized that those vendors need a policy to ensure them to be promptly adjusted to the rapidly changing distribution environment and to be competitive to access to the global distribution market to finally become hidden champions through systematical operations of small and medium wholesale vendors and implementing educational business through sales management. Therefore, I propose five ways to improve support policies for small and medium wholesale vendors by considering social and economic value, systematizing small wholesalers and scaling small and medium wholesale vendors, reinforcing support for wholesalers, support policies for new online market opening and offline market opening.

최근 청년 세대의 취업률 하락과 직장에서의 조기퇴직 등의 영향으로 소상공인 창업 시장의 경쟁이 과열되고 있다. 또한 부동산 부양 정책 등과 맞물려 국가의 가계부채가 1,200조를 넘어선 가운데, 소상공인 창업 실패비용도 한 영역을 차지하고 있다. 위와 같은 이유로 소상공인에 대한 정부의 지원이 다양한 차원에서 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구는 이중 소상공인시장진흥공단이 지원하는 제도 중 자금지원제도, 교육지원제도, 컨설팅지원제도가 소상공인의 경영성과에 미치는 영향에 관한 연구이다. 소상공인 지원제도와 경영성과 간의 영향을 검증하기 위해 2013년 1월부터 2015년 10월 까지 위의 세 분야에 포함되는 소상공인 지원제도를 이용한 경남지역 내 소상공인 272명을 대상으로 온라인 설문조사를 통한 소상공인 지원제도와 경영성과 간의 유의적인 관계를 조사하였다. 또한, 각 지원제도별 이용 빈도, 이용 후 만족도 등을 조사하였으며, 추가적으로 각 지원제도를 이용하는 소상공인들의 특성을 창업동기, 창업형태, 아이템, 업종 경력, 종업원 수, 매출액 및 인구통계학적 측면에서 분석하였다. 분석결과, 자금지원제도와 컨설팅지원제도는 소상공인 지원제도를 이용한 경우에 경영성과가 높게 나타났다. 그러나 교육지원제도는 해당 제도를 이용하지 않은 경우 경영성과가 높은 것으로 나타났다. 이를 검증하기 위해, 교육지원제도를 이용한 대상자들을 분석, 교육지원제도와 경영성과는 운영경력과 유의성이 있음을 확인할 수 있어 성장 단계별 지원이 이루어져야 함을 시사하고 있다. 본 연구는 창업 시장에 진입한 소상공인 및 정책 입안 담당자에게 도움이 되고자 수행하였으며, 향후 본 연구를 수행하며 도출한 결과 및 한계점을 분석하여 차기 연구를 수행하는데 중요한 참고사항으로 활용하고자 한다.
