초록

본 연구는 구미 클러스터내 기술지식 교류 네트워크에서 기술적 급진성에 대한 네트워크 폐쇄와 구조적 공백의 역할을 실증적으로 검증한 연구이다. 분석을 위해 협회*기업(2-mode)네트워크 자료를 기업*기업(1-mode) 네트워크 자료로 변환하여 2,550개 기업 네트워크를 구축하였다. 또한 기업의 특성을 조사하기 위해 구미국가산업단지에 있는 기업을 대상으로 랜덤추출을 통해 101개 기업에게 설문을 실시하였으며 최종적으로는 86개 기업을 수집하였다. 분석을 위해, 네트워크 폐쇄와 구조적 공백의 사회네트워크 분석 지표인 네트워크 밀도와 효율성이 높은 수준의 다중공선성을 갖고 있어 능형회귀분석을 이용하였다. 분석결과 구조적 공백은 기업의 급진적 혁신에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며, 네트워크 밀도는 급진적 혁신에 부정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났다. 본 연구는 과거의 개념적인 논의와 문헌연구에 기반 했던 네트워크 패쇄와 구조적 공백의 논쟁에 실증적 증거 제시하는데 공헌하고 나아가 급진적 혁신을 달성하기 위한 사회적 자본의 구축 전략 수립에 도움을 준다. 향후 연구에서는 다양한 네트워크의 구조적 특성을 찾아내려는 노력이 필요할 것이며, 기술 지식의 특성, 혁신 유형, 네트워크 폐쇄와 구조적 공백의 상호작용 등에 관심을 두어야 할 것이다.

This study empirically test the roles of network closure and structural hole on radical innovation in technological knowledge exchange network in Gumi cluster. In doing so, we build 2,550 firm network, transforming association*firm(2-mode) to firm*firm(1-mode) network data. In addition, in order to investigate firms' attributes, we conduct survey for 101 firms in Gumi cluster using random sampling, and finally collect 86 firm samples. For analysis, we use ridge regression since network density and efficiency, indices of network closure and structural hole respectively, has a high level of multicollinearity. The findings show that structural hole has a significant and positive impact on radical innovation, but network closure has a significant and negative impact on radical innovation. This study contributes to present an empirical evidence of debate on network closure and structural hole based on past conceptual discussions and literature review and further goes a long way towards strategy formulation to establish social capital in accomplishing radical innovation. Further research is required that pays closer attention to features of technological knowledge, innovation types and interaction between network closure and structural hole, directing efforts to structural characteristics of various networks.
