Abstract

To meet needs of R&D application reinforcement on geoscience and mineral resources area, we suggest public R&D institute's strategies and system for the application including supplement of technology licensing office (TLO). We review the former studies on technology transfer successfulness criteria and difficulties from the viewpoint of korean small&medium size firms and public R&D researchers, and then benchmark a japanese public R&D institute of industrial science and technology, which was newly integrated and developed with Geological Survey of Japan (GSJ). Application analysis index and the reinforcement strategy hierarchy for R&D project are established on geoscience and mineral resources area, and applied on the prioritized research projects of KIGAM. Empirical investigation was carried out on KIGAM researchers with practical studied analysis on questionnaire and intensive interview. Result of the analysis is identified and compared with the case in Japan. It is shown that KIGAM researchers feel their technology transfer activities are not yet integrated with TLO and commercialized R&D are not cooperated with them. This study proposes industrial cooperation coordinators in the categorized R&D divisions of public R&D institute based on the different R&D characteristics and needs in R&D application strategies.

지질자원 분야에도 더욱 강화될 것으로 보이는 연구개발의 상용화 및 산업화 요구에 부합하기 위해, 본 연구에서는 공공 연구기관의 연구개발사업 및 프로그램 수준의 실용화 방안과 연구지원 조직 측면의 연구개발의 실용화를 제고시킬 수 있는 방안을 모색하고자 한다. 기술도입하는 기업 입장에서 기술이전의 성공을 정의하고 공공연구기관의 연구결과 활용의 취약점에 대한 연구결과를 살펴보고, 일본 공공 연구기관의 실용화 전략 및 연구조직의 시사점을 알아보았다. 그리고 연구개발 과제별 적응할 연구결과의 활용 및 상용화를 위한 분석틀을 마련하고 이를 한국지질자원연구원의 중점과제에 적용하여, 연구개발의 분류 및 특성에 따라 차별화 된 실용화 전략이 필요함을 도출하였다. 마지막으로 한국지질자원연구원의 중점연구분야 연구책임자를 대상으로 기술이전 및 실용화의 실태 및 현재 적용되고 있는 실용화 메커니즘을 알아보기 위해, 기존 연구를 통해 일반적인 기술이전의 형태를 조사하고 지질자원 분야에 면담에 적용하였다. 기술이전 전담조직과 그에 따른 시스템이 구축되어 있으나 아직 그 역할이 일부 연구개발자에게 한정되는 실정임을 확인하였다. 일본에서는 연구개발 수행조직에서 연구개발 실용화를 위한 연구분야별 산학관 협력 코디네이터를 두고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 규모가 다른 AIST와 직접 비교할 수는 없으나 한국지질자원연구원에서도 뚜렷한 연구분야별 특징을 가지고 있기 때문에 연구분야를 나누어 산학관 협력 코디네이터를 두는 것을 제안하고자 한다. 특히나 앞서 분석한 실용화 전략과 같이 연구/사업의 분류 및 각각의 연구/사업의 특성에 따라 차별화 된 실천전략이 필요하므로 분야별 협력 코디네이터로 이에 따른 대응이 가능할 것이다.
