초록

빠르게 변화하는 경쟁 환경에서 ICT 기업은 다른 산업 기술과의 결합을 통해 경쟁 우위를 얻으려 하고 다른 산업의 기업 또한 ICT와의 결합을 통해 혁신을 얻고자 한다. ICT 공급자에게 이전에는 완전히 다른 산업이 일단 ICT가 적용되면 그들의 시장으로 볼 수 있는 융합 현상이 나타나는 것이다. 본 연구는 ICT 기업이 기술 융합을 위해서 어떠한 노력을 해야 하는지에 대한 연구문제를 가지고 진화론적 관점에서 ICT 공급자의 행동과 기술 융합과 관계에 관심을 갖는다. 실증적으로 ICT 융합이 가장 활발하게 진행되는 자동차 분야를 대상으로 나스닥 등록 기업의 특허활동에 따른 10년간의 기술 변화를 관찰하였다. ICT 공급자에 의한 기술적 시도의 혁신성은 기술 융합의 가능성을 높이지만 그 다양성은 그렇지 못하다는 결론을 얻음으로써 급변하는 환경에 대응하기 위해서 ICT 기업은 다양한 대안을 마련하는 것 보다는 집중이 필요하다는 시사점을 전달한다.

By the means of pervasiveness of ICT, ICT firms in the dynamic competition try to get the competitive advantage through the combination with the other industrial technologies and the firms in other industries also seek innovations in this way. To ICT suppliers, the application industries were completely different before but if ICT is applied to that industries once, the convergence phenomenon could occur as a part of an ICT industry. So, this research focuses the causality between ICT supplier's behavior and technological convergence according to the research question about what should ICT firms do for ICT convergence. We observed technological changes in the automotive industry through the Nasdaq listed firms' patent activities of 10-year period from the perspective of evolutionary theory. As a result, while the innovativeness of technological trials by ICT suppliers enhances the possibility of technological convergence, diversity of those can reduce the emergence of ICT convergence. This implies that ICT firms should focus specialized technologies for convergence rather than various technological options for the uncertain future.
