This study aims to empirically examine serial entrepreneurship in Korea. Using the ICT startups survey data, I compare serial entrepreneurs with their novice counterparts in terms of business behaviors and performances. I found that serial entrepreneurs are more likely than novice ones to co-found a business with other entrepreneurs, enter a market with relatively large assets and expand their business into overseas market. They tend to put more importance on large-scale production and expansion strategy than first-time entrepreneurs. They are more likely to cooperate with suppliers and customers but less likely with the governments. From their experience of founding and operating businesses, the findings suggest that serial entrepeneurs are more market-oriented and more capable of managing internal human relations and external network of supply chain. Consequently, serial entrepreneurs show stronger early financial performance than novice entrepreneurs especially when they team up to found a business.

기술을 기반으로 스타트업을 시작한 창업자들은 벤처캐피탈(VC) 등 기술기반 벤처기업에 투자를 하는 사람들이 오로지 기술만을 평가하여 투자를 진행할 것이라고 오해하기 쉽다. 그 생각에서 벗어나지 못하면 기술 벤처기업에 전문적으로 투자하는 투자자에게 투자를 받기는 쉽지 않을 것이다. 본고에서는 기술 벤처기업에 전문적으로 투자하는 투자자들이 어떤 관점에서 투자를 진행하는지에 대해서 알아봄으로써 기술 기반으로 스타트업을 시작한 창업자가 투자유치를 어떻게 진행해야 할 지에 대한 지침을 주고자 한다.

The Moon administration has proposed three major directions for startup growth: the creation of a new environment, active investment, and the creation of a virtuous cycle in venture investment. The policy is progressive but not sufficient to create a startup innovation boom in the current Korean economic environment. ICT Startup support policies must pay more attention to the product release stage. For growth of startups and small businesses it is important to establish a close value chain to secure competitiveness in the global market. It is necessary to secure a bridgehead to advance into the global market, including technical cooperation with large companies and joint advancement overseas. The final goal of the startup policy should be the continuous growth of the national economy and the expansion of employment. The establishment of fair trade and the strengthening of the startup ecosystem are important to foster a startup-friendly environment. Funding programs requires a shift from general support to enhanced choice and focus.

Purpose: To investigate optical shop startup awareness of ophthalmic optics students as a basic source for startup education. Methods: Total of 287 students from three ophthalmic optics college in kyung-gi region was surveyed and analyzed using SPSS analysis. Results: Optical shop startup business plan of ophthalmic optics students was very high (80.1%). For startup timing, over 6yrs of employe (37.0%) was most and there was significant difference according to age (p<.001) and optician family present (p<.05). For startup type, single startup type (37%) was most and there was significant difference according to grade (p<.01). For startup unit of space, 30 pyong (43.5%) was most, Seoul metropolitan area and kyung-gi region (54.4%) was most for startup region, and station area (40.8%) was most for startup location. The reason of non-startup was eye hospital and glass related company employe (35.7%) was most and optical shop employe (35.7%) was most for non-startup planner's way. Conclusions: Startup business plan was very high and need to have startup education for there startup provision.

Sixty Tadzhikistan-Sinkiang events occurred from the year 1966 to 1978 were relocated using relative location method with one reference event technique. Since the area covered by the events is about $300{\;}{\times}400{\;}km$, the region is subdivided into four. Each one has one reference event with accurate hypocenter location and travel time. The result shows average 0.3 change of distance.

A computer simulation of earthquake sequence in the time and magnitude space was done using random number generation. The theory of the simulation are based on the two statistical models of earthquake events. Those models are Stationary Poisson Process for independent earthquakes and Branching Markov Process for aftershocks. The generated earthquake sequnces resemble the actual earthquake catalogs.

Generally a venture capital aims at investment and support Venture businesses that signifies a start-up which has high technologies but frailty of the economy so that raise fund from financial agencies at high risk rate, it has high risk but when the venture businesses launch into general orbit, the venture capital guarantee high-rate profits. Venture capital do not just provide risk capital but also takes a role as a mentor for continuous growth with total consulting service at business and technical management. Also it offers in-depth support to reform the supported enterprise in order to enhance the competitive. Venture capital receives attention for years as a principal agent to be promoted strategically at national level. Bio venture, a major concern of venture capital and one of core industries in Korea, is different from other industries because it needs long-term and large scale of investment. these factors bring about difficulties in an investment and growth. Therefore, it is very important to identify growth and profitability of start-ups and small and venture businesses with long-term appreciation above all other industries. This research analyze management results of bio venture businesses empirically by investment from venture capital. according to the results, bio venture businesses need huge capital and a long gap of time, henceforth, formation of model for growth is necessary with angel investing as well as venture capital.

Fault-plane solutions of the December 13, 1996 Yeongweol earthquake with magnitude 4.5 is obtained using the grid test technique. Thirty polarities of P waves recorded at KMA, KIGAM, KSRS and JAPAN stations are used for the event. The obtained fault plane solution shows strike-slip motion with significant amount of thrust component. The orientation of the fault is 180±20° in strike, 50±5° in dip and 150±5° in rake, or 292±3° in strike, 65±5° in dip and 30±10° in rake. These solutions are similar to those of earthquakes occurred at Sagju (Jan. 7, 1980), Pohang (Apr. 15, 1981) and offshore Gunsan (Oct. 6, 1976). The compressional axis of the stress field is trending from ENE to WSW, which is consistent with the previously defined typical regional tectonic stress orientation in and around Korean Peninsula.
