Abstract

Digital Social Innovation, social innovation utilizing digital technology, is gaining attenntion as an innovative new way of solving pressing social problems such as ageing, traffic, unemployment etc. while some raise concerns as to the negative impact of digital technology on society associated with Share-the-Scraps-economy and On-demand-economy. The paper aims to address these concerns by examining the nature and source of business values generated in digital social innovation. Donation, cooperation/solidarity and sharing are identified as sources of business value from social innovation. Digitization, Platform may present infrastructure upon which efficiency of economic transaction can be elevated. The participation of consumers/users in the value chain and value network enabled by digital technology is identified and discussed as the critical source of business value in digital social innovation. The business model of Docksan-dong Happy Parking Street living lab project is analysed to illuminate the realization of business vaules in real life setting. Policy recommendations and future research directions are suggested.

공유경제의 등장은 디지털 기술을 사회혁신에 활용하는, 디지털 사회혁신을 사회문제의 새로운 해결책으로 주목 받게 하고 있다. 그런데 또 한편으로는 부스러기 공유경제, 주문경제처럼 디지털 기술의 부정적 영향을 우려하는 목소리도 있다. 본 연구는 디지털 사회혁신에 의해 창출되는 가치의 성격과 원천 그리고 작동방식을 밝힘으로써 제기된 의문과 우려에 대한 답을 구해보고자 한다. 먼저 사회혁신이 창출하는 비즈니스 가치의 성격과 원천에 대해 논의하고 디지털 기술에 의해서 창출되는 비즈니스 가치의 성격과 원천을 검토한다. 기부, 연대, 공유라는 사회혁신 활동 창출 가치의 원천, 그리고 디지털 기술이 만들어내는 가치의 원천인 효율성과 효과성을 알아보고 소비자/사용자의 역할을 논의한다. 실제 디지털 사회혁신 성공사례인 행복주차골목 리빙랩의 비즈니스 모델 분석을 통해 창출되는 가치들이 실제 현장에서 어떤 방식으로 발생하고 구현되는지 알아본다.
