Due to the unprecedented worldwide pandemic of the new Covid-19 infection, business trends of companies have changed significantly. Therefore, it is strongly required to monitor the rapid changes of innovation trends to design and plan future businesses. Since the pandemic, many studies have attempted to analyze business changes, but they are limited to specific industries and are insufficient in terms of data objectivity. In response, this study aims to analyze business trends after Covid-19 using Crunchbase, a global startup data. The data is collected and preprocessed every two years from 2018 to 2021 to compare the business trends. To capture the major trends, a network analysis is conducted for the industry groups and industry information based on the co-occurrence. To analyze the minor trends, LDA-based topic modelling and word2vec-based clustering is used. As a result, e-commerce, education, delivery, game and entertainment industries are promising based on their technological advances, showing extension and diversification of industry boundaries as well as digitalization and servitization of business contents. This study is expected to help venture capitalists and entrepreneurs to understand the rapid changes under the impact of Covid-19 and to make right decisions for the future.

This study is a thesis on motion infographics design trend analysis of the domestic and international Competition award-winning works. The design processes of motion infographic which belongs to information design are divided into information architecture and information visualization. The award-winning works were analyzed by Design elements considered in each design processes. The analysis results showed that the similarity seen between the domestic and international are meaningful for understanding how to communicate by motion infographics and the usefulness of the methods. At the same time, the difference between them showed that the two sides recognized motion infographic differently and the domestic works have the lack of diversity and the uniformity of expression. The results provide information used to further establish strategy of design motion infographics in business and education.

전세계 국가는 21세기 메가 트렌드인 기술 융합(Technology Convergence) 추세에 발 맞춰 미래비전 및 전략수립에 몰두하고 있다. 그리고, 공통적으로 정보통신(IT)기술 및 서비스를 기반으로 한 자국의 국부 증대와 신산업 창출을 시나리오 기법을 활용하여 이야기 하고 있다. 하지만 국내의 경우 비전연구 및 전략수립에 대한 연구가 초보단계로 기존의 IT 단독 기술에 의한 연구개발 방법을 그대로 활용할 경우, 기술 융합 메가 트렌드 연구개발에 능동적으로 대처하기에는 미흡하다는 지적이다. 따라서, 본 논문에서는 시나리오 기법을 활용한 비전연구 사례를 분석하고, 향후 시나리오 비전연구 방향을 제시한다.

As the information and communications market goes more uncertain, foresight activities becomes more important. A number of foresight activities, such as trend analysis, have been used to predict customer needs. However previous studies tend to lack objectivity and systematization. In this study, we suggest a meta analysis methodology which combines both top-down and bottom-up approach in order to systematize the analysis process. Secondly, we applied this approach to ICT market to identify essential future technologies. Based on the result from the meta analysis, we have constructed the future technology roadmap.

technologies have now placed high hopes and expectations on the significance of design more than in any other time. This is because under current trends where technically and functionally advanced technologies are equalized, our success in the international markets depends on how we can differentiate designs to meet consumers'needs. In this research, we sought to forecast modern and future trends in automotive design, and thus secure competitiveness in automotive design. We first analyzed the movement of design value in respective times following changes in design trends (one aspect of social change in the 21st century), and consequent changes in consumers' value\ulcorner We further compared and researched design trends for automobiles and products by time and region, through surveys, analysis and collation of automotive design phenomena from various aspects recently occurring in advanced countries such as the U.S.A., European national and Japan.

This study used the Google Trends site to analyze selection information that users expect from prominent Toothbrushes and Toothpastes through related search keywords that users wanted to obtain. From 2006 to 2018(sep), searches for Toothbrushes and Toothpastes were arranged in the order of popularity of related searched words. The total number of searches words exposed was each 25, total 325 collected. The analysis was conducted using two methods, first, by search function. second, by a word network using a Big Data program. The study has shown that toothbrushes there are high expectations for brands, toothpaste there are high expectations in the function. In order to increase the motivation for oral health education, it is recommended to use and provide knowledge about the brand of toothbrushes and Toothpastes by the function.

1,098 pieces of photographs($1995{\sim}2002$) of men's suit style have been classified according to fashion images in order to examine features and change aspects with statistical analysis. The findings of examining features of the trend by year with test of homogeneity, correspondence analysis, biplots, correlation analysis and regression analysis are as follows: (a) there are significant differences on fashion images as the trend by yew with test of homogeneity, (b) there are remarkable differences on the fashion trend by year with correspondence analysis and biplots. (c) There are significant correlations for appearance among fashion images by its frequency through correlation analysis, and (d) it is assumed that fashion images are going to be gradually outstanding according to regression analysis.

This study aims to provide new design directions for public housing by analyzing trends in housing design. To this end, we investigate the changes in population, household, society, policy, institution, and technology as the main factors that can affect the housing design trends. Then we analyze the applications of public housing design and suggest the new design directions for public housing after considering experts' opinions. The low growth rate of population, growing separation of household members and increasing level of income produced more diverse demands from residents. In addition, housing demand is notably different by region, and the supply of medium and small-sized housing and small scale developments are growing. Information technology and green technology are also advancing. As a consequence, future housing trends would change from numerically-controlled to performance-based, from central to regional-oriented, from unit to city-centric. Current designs of public housing reflect recent housing trends- in reducing the number of housings and making view corridors by placing a central square in the middle. This shows that the existing designs are not differentiated by region and we need to develop various approaches according to location characteristics and the corresponding new housing types. Therefore, this study proposes the following five directions: responsiveness to demand changes, reflection of location characteristics, connectivity to a local community, realization of green environment, and acquisition of housing function.
