기술간 산업간 융합 현상은 R&D 범위의 복잡성을 가중시켰고, 국가나 지역 단위의 시장이 아닌 지구 단위의 시장경쟁을 첨예화시킴으로써 과거의 폐쇄적 R&D 시스템의 한계를 여실하게 드러내는 계기가 되었다. 즉, 시장 규모의 글로벌화, 제품개발 주기의 단축, 지식체화 인력의 유동성 증가를 극복하기 위해서는 기존의 폐쇄형 R&D 방법이 아닌, 다양한 지식자원을 활용함과 동시에 R&D 활동 전후방에 위치한 모든 주체들이 참여하는 개방화된 R&D 방법을 도입할 때 비로소 새로운 가치를 창출할 수 있게 될 것이다. 따라서, 본 연구에서는 R&D 변화의 추세, 개방형 R&D의 개념 및 필요성을 살펴본 후 '융합기술 R&D를 위한 개방형 혁신 시스템 도입 방향'을 제언하고자 한다.

This study was undertaken to analyze the relationship between the Big-five personality factors of undergraduate students and Creativity Convergence Competency. Totally, 511 students attending private colleges in G province were surveyed for their competences. Using the SPSS 22.0 program, all collected data were analyzed by one-way ANOVA, Pearson's correlation analysis, and regression analysis. The following results were obtained. First, personality extraversion and Creativity Convergence Competency differed in all the major factors examined. Second, higher the interpersonal abilities, higher was the ability of core convergence. Third, extraversion and sincerity among the Big-five personality factors were significant predictors of Creativity Convergence Competency. In conclusion, we found that the Big-five personality factors are important to be considered for strengthening the competence of students.

As science and technology which the society requires become highly advanced and complicated, the need of so-called Convergence Technology(CovT) is getting more significant. The major developed countries are presenting their own vision and strategies of CovT to take the lead of future society and global economies. In Korea, each ministries and government offices are suggesting their own directions of promoting CovT and supporting the related programs. This paper investigates the overall status of national and international R&D activities related to CovT in order to invigorate the related national R&D programs and maximize their effectiveness. It also purports to realize the growth potential and a ripple effect of CovT, such as new business creation and fulfillment of public needs, so that secure new CovT in an early stage. Based on the analysis of the overall status of national R&D programs, we redefine and re-categorize the CovT, which is especially oriented to the development of government support policy, and present the customized strategies to each categories.

In this study we aim to identify the core technologies that play central roles along with the peripheral technologies that contribute to the technology convergence in digital healthcare. A total of 376 korean-patents related to healthcare were gathered from 2011 to 2020, and a topic modeling technique and a network analysis were conducted on the collected data. Six major topics were derived through the topic modeling procedure which are "data collection", "signal measurement", "health management", "data transmission", "diagnostic treatment", and "measurement device". Each of the six topics were analyzed to depict relations among technologies, specify the convergence characteristics, and identify the core-technology through centrality analysis. The study illustrates the present status of digital healthcare technology development and the technological convergence in South Korea and is anticipated to help establish policies to foster healthcare industry.

One of the core policies recently implemented by the Korean government is the introduction of a creative economy, a concept that integrates ICT with the existing economic structure in order to create new growth factors and jobs. In June of 2013, the National Assembly passed a bill for the institutional practice of a creative economy. The concept of a creative economy is to integrate industries centered on ICT in order to form a new-concept industry paradigm that creates new values and services that exceed past industrial categories. In other words, smart convergence, which integrates ICT with various industries, is evaluated as a core factor for boosting the creative economy. Thus, based on the definition of 'smart convergence', this study predicted the economic effects and sociocultural changes that will ensue due to the future era of smart convergence. Also, this study proposes policies for enhancing the creative economy in various ways. More specifically, in-depth interviews with convergence industry experts were carried out and quantitative analyses were performed employing a Solow Model. Furthermore, as a means to revitalize the creative economy, this study underscores the significance of the preemptive institutionalization of legislations and suggests several policy proposals regarding smart convergence rooted in market supply and the demand chain, smart convergence through selective focus, and smart work. This study is differentiated from previous studies that have only focused in establishing theories in that it offers quantitative research with a consideration of the feasibility of proposed policies. The leading experience of Korea regarding smart convergence can provide important lessons to other countries that hope to promote a creative economy as a means to create new growth factors and jobs.
