Since industry and technology are being developed through interactions, intellectual property (IP), which are used as a substitute for technology, are found to have a close relationship with industry. The current status of IP and the business revenue differences of enterprises of south Korea are analyzed in the disaster-safety industry. Only 2.66% out of 49,538 firms have IP, indicating that most companies do not have IP. The difference in sales due to the ownership of IP is not statistically significant in middle-standing enterprises, but that of medium and small-sized enterprises (SMEs) is statistically significant. It is also found that 17 Divisions, which have IP, out of 21 Divisions in the Disaster-Safety Industry Special Classification of Korea have higher business revenue, and 10 Divisions of those 17 Divisions indicate statistical significance. In conclusion, the ownership of IP is one of the factors affecting the difference in business revenue for SMEs in Korea, implying that it is important to focus on creating and securing IP.

The number of domestic construction company is expanding every year while the construction workers' exposure to disaster risk is increasing due to technological advancements and popularity of high-rise buildings. In particular, the industry faces greater fatalities and severe large scale accidents because of construction industry characteristics including influx of foreign workers with different language and culture, large number of aged workers, outsourcing, high place work, heavy machine construction. The construction industry is labor-intensive, which is to be completed under given timeline and consists of unique working environment with a lot of night shifts. In addition, when a fixed construction budget is not secured, there is less investment in safety management resulting in poor risk management at the construction site. Taking account that the construction industry has higher accident risk rate and fatality rate, risky and unique working environment, and various labor pool from foreign to aged workers, preemptive safety management through risk factor identification is a mandatory requirement for the construction industry and site. The study analyzes about 8,500 cases of construction accidents that occurred over the past 10 years and identified risk factor by construction industry sector to secure a systematic insight for risk management. Based on interrelation analysis between accident types, work types, original cause materials and assailing materials, there is correlation between each analysis factor and work industry. Especially for work types, there is great correlation between work tasks and industry type. For reinforced concrete and earthwork are among the most frequent types of accidents, and they are not only high in frequency of accidents, but also have a high risk in categories of occurrence.

The aim of this research is to investigate the difference in the capturing opportunities for each type of venture companies in the industry undergoing competition of a dominant design and then figure out the reason why they can be successful. Existing studies on venture companies are focused on the way to enhance a firm's competencies by acquiring and combining its resources. However, it is important for startups which have a lack of resources and capabilities to capture the opportunity to survive by understanding a changing environment. This study is focused on opportunity capture and strategic response to a changing environment and attempts to select and observe startup companies which are able to capture the opportunity and enter the market in the industry undergoing dominant design competition. In order to find out its difference in different types of business, we select one case from hardware startups and the other from software startups. According to the result of this study, the hardware startup focuses on market extension by lowering their prices and the software startup strives to induce more users to participate by the universalization of enabling technology so as to extend and standardize their technology in the environment undergoing dominant design competition. This feature of environment leads the difference in the approach for successfully capturing opportunity and thus hardware firms need to recognize the opportunity with profit potential from relationship with a number of cooperative firms while software firms need to identify the opportunity for extension of enabling technology which can be used by many users.

Korea's trade balance in service showed surplus in 2012 on the basis of BPM5. This is recorded by 14 years since 1999. This owes to decrease of deficit in tourism balance, increase of surplus in construction and transportation, and shift from deficit to surplus, even in small portion, in personal cultural recreational services balance. While externally the global economic growth becomes inactive and the Korean Won has appreciated, internally Korean service industry is very weak and is not equipped with international competitiveness. This study intends to look into service surplus items and services deficit items and to present measures that will be able to strengthen competitiveness in service industry. As a short case study, German and Japan was benchmarked, as they are the countries which are developed on the basis of manufacturing like Korea. And in this study, by analyzing surplus items and deficit items in trade balance sheet, it is attempted to suggest policies which would be available for strengthening service industry. As the service industry is a highly value-added one, it is necessary to designate promising categories and intensively foster as strategic industry. Service industry has their own characteristics distinguished with manufacturing goods. It has very different logistics and payment system with manufacturing industry. It means there must be independent support systems which reflect the nature of industrial classification in service industry. It is necessary to provide export support system, to organize export market development group, to support marketing, to set common logistics center, to support diplomatic means, to provide legal service and so on.

The purpose of this study is to analyze quantitatively and qualitatively the effects of the increase in online shopping and its effects on real-world commercial outlets. The empirical analysis of this study is based on the results of "Census on Establishments" and "Online Shopping Survey" that cover 15 years, from 2002 to 2016. According to the results of this study, the increase in the number of online transactions affects the decrease in the number of stores in the real-world retail sector. However, non-specialized large stores and chain convenience stores showed an increase in the number of stores. In addition, the number of F&B stores increased the most in line with the increase in online transactions. This is because the increase in online transactions and in internet users led to the use of more delivery applications and the introduction of popular places on blogs or through social media. Street-level rents for medium and large-sized locations increased. In other words, it is seen that the demand for differentiated real-world stores that provide a good user experience increases, even though online transactions also increase. These results suggest that real-world stores should provide good user experiences in their physical locations with a certain size and assortment of goods.

The regulation of business area was abolished to improve the competitiveness of the construction industry and the ability of general and specialty contractors to enter the mutual market. As the next step, the government is preparing for a reorganization of business type. If the impact of the abolishing of business area on the construction industry is analyzed, the result can contribute to determining the step by step application scope of the reorganization of business type. This study derived the business types having a high probability of the mutual market entry of general and specialty contractors. Then, the size of mutual market entry is analyzed. First, the connection between the general and specialty construction, and the similarities between the registration standards of general and specialty construction are analyzed. Based on the result, a general contractor can enter 15 business types of specialty construction, and the market size is about 78.8 trillion KRW. This is about 82% of the total contract cost of specialty construction during the year 2017 (about 96 trillion KRW). Next, based on the relevance of business contents, the market size when general contractors enter the specialty construction market is analyzed. As a result, the market size is about 24.7 trillion KRW, and this is about 13% of total contract cost of general construction during the year 2017 (about 190 trillion KRW). Based on the result of this study, there is a higher probability of the mutual market entry of general contractors into specialty construction than vice versa. However, the result of this study is based on the current contents of business types, registration standards, and construction data of before abolishing the regulation of business area. This is a research limitation. If the business contents and registration standards are changed in the future, the result could differ from the current result.

교육훈련은 기업의 인적자본을 축적하고 혁신을 자극하여 공급측면을 확장한다. 또한 기업 경쟁력 강화에 따른 임금상승과 소비증대, 투자 확대 등 총수요 확장효과도 있다. 그러나 만성적인 현장의 인력 부족, 높은 비정규직 비율 등의 특성을 안고 있는 중소기업의 경우 근로자에 대한 교육훈련 비율이 상대적으로 낮은 것으로 나타나고 있다. 본 연구는 미래신산업으로 평가받고 있는 보건산업분야 교육담당자 및 교육생을 대상으로 교육참여 애로사항을 조사하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하였다. 첫째, 업종 및 기업규모와 관련 없이 가장 큰 애로요인은 교육에 참가할 시간부족이 나타났다. 업종별로는 병원분야가 제조업인 제약, 의료기기, 화장품분야 보다 시간적 제약에 대한 지적이 많아 병원분야 인력부족 문제가 교육 참여에도 영향을 미치고 있는 것을 보여주었다. 둘째, 지방소재 기업일수록 지리적 접근성을 애로요인으로 지적하고 있어 지역 교육 및 기업 현장으로의 찾아가는 교육의 필요성이 도출되었다. 셋째, 중소기업에서 교육정보 인지도를 문제로 지적했는데, 이는 교육 관련 조직이 미비한 중소기업일수록 교육정보 확보 및 사내전파가 낮기 때문으로 추정된다. 이러한 연구결과는 단기 다수교육과정 즉 카페테리아식 교육과정과 사이버과정을 통한 종사자들의 선택권 강화, 지역 및 기업 현장으로의 찾아가는 교육, 중소기업에 대한 지속적인 교육정보 제공 및 사내 전파, 교육참여 우수기업과 종사자에 대한 표창 등의 유인체계가 필요함을 시사한다.
