지역별 산업 및 육성을 위해서는 지역 기술혁신 활동을 보다 실제적으로 모니터링하고 이를 바탕으로 분석하는 것이 중요하다. 특허 통계를 이용하여 지역별, 국가별 혁신 능력을 비교하는 연구는 많이 있어왔지만, 기존의 방법은 주로 출원인(기업)의 본사를 기준으로 행해져 왔으며, 실제 혁신활동이 행해지고 있는 지역을 기준으로 하지는 못하였다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 실제 혁신활동을 대표한다고 할 수 있는 발명자의 지역분포 현황과 발명자간의 네트워크를 분석함으로써 특정 기술분야의 인력교류가 지역적으로 어떤 관계를 보이는지를 알아보았고, 이러한 지역혁신이 지역별 경제적 성과와 어떠한 연관성을 갖는지를 알아보고자 하였다. 이를 위해서 2005년 출원된 한국등록특허를 기준으로 내국인이 출원한 특허 전체를 대상으로 한 지역간 네트워크 분석을 통해 분석한 기술혁신활동의 지역간 연계구조와 이후의 경제적 성과를 분석하였다.

오늘날 경제의 세계화는 기술혁신 및 고도정보화를 동시에 수반하면서 기업간, 지역간, 국가간 경쟁을 가속화시키고 있다. 특히 세계화 과정에서 중앙정부의 역할은 축소한 반면, 지역(region)이 가진 역할과 중요성이 새롭게 부각됨과 동시에 경제활동의 주요단위로 등장하고 있다. 그러나 지역의 역할이 중시되는 것은 지역이 세계경쟁의 단위가 되었다는 것만이 아니고, 산업환경이 유연적 생산체제, 지식기반경제로의 변화로 지역의 의미와 기능이 종래와는 달라졌기 때문이다. (중략)

This study diagnoses the industrial varieties and innovation capacity of the Korean regional economy and discusses how the priority for autonomous regional development can be set. Since the late 1990s, regional development policies in Korea have been attempted from various angles to reduce the economic gap between the metropolitan area and non-metropolitan areas, but the establishment of a development strategy in consideration of regional industrial characteristics and innovation capabilities has been insufficient. With the advancement and diversification of technologies and industries, regions must seek strategic diversification to prepare for economic shocks, away from strategies that specialize in specific industries. In this study, industrial varieties in regional basis is characterized using unrelated and related varieties. Variety indices show different patterns between the metropolitan area and non-metropolitan areas and between manufacturing and service sectors, which raises the need to consider industrial characteristics in regional development. Lastly, using the variety index and the innovation capacity index as two dimensions, the regional economic status at the municipal level is categorized into four types, and proper regional development policy priorities are suggested for each type.

The policy of promoting innovation clusters aims to enhance the competitiveness of industries by strengthening the linkages between industry sectors and research sectors in specific regions. In Korea, after the concept of innovation clusters was introduced by the OECD in 1997, Korean government actively pursued policies based on this concept in the fields of industry, region, and science and technology. Previous policies and research on the activation of innovation clusters have tended to focus on the exchange and collaboration among members. However, this study focused on enhancing the competitiveness of industries and regions, in other words, strengthening the competitiveness of companies, which is the fundamental reason for fostering innovative clusters. Accordingly, this study aimed to analyze the impact of factors activating innovation clusters on the business performance of SMEs located in the Daedeok Innopolis. To achieve this, based on the essential concept of innovation clusters such as industrial agglomeration factors, networking factors, innovation generation factors, the study derived factors for activating innovation clusters and verified hypotheses using the survey results of 175 companies. Among the factors activating innovation clusters, industrial agglomeration and innovation generation were found to have a positive impact on the business performance of companies. However, networking factors were analyzed to have no significant influence on the business performance of companies. This study differentiates itself by addressing the factors for activating innovation clusters through empirical analysis, unlike previous case-based studies. Furthermore, considering the difference between intuitive judgments on networking factors in innovation clusters and their actual impact on business performance, the study raised the practical significance of conducting a comprehensive examination from various perspectives, such as the socially and culturally embedded structures in the region, the characteristics of specialized industries, and the needs of cluster members, to develop more effective policies for innovation clusters.

In this study, based on the results that cooperation increases innovation or increases innovation performance in the same region, the result is that the effects of cooperation in the same region will be more effective, thus starting with the assumption that the innovation performance will be higher. The analysis results showed that the collaborative experience in the same region greatly increases the results of innovation, indicating that the location of cooperative targets in cooperation could be an important decision factor. The implications of this result are that it could have a significant impact on a company's innovation performance. This means that the country's industrial policy should be established in the direction of cluster formation.

This study calculates comprehensive regional innovation potentials of the 16 provincial governments of Korea based on the 20 indices from 3 fields such as regional innovation infrastructure, regional innovation activities, and regional innovation performance. Except regional innovation activities supported by the central government's regional innovation grant program, there are disparities of the 3 innovation fields between the Seoul Metropolitan Area and non-Seoul areas. In some local provinces where the comprehensive innovation capacities are low, there are significant disparities among the 3 innovation fields. These provincial governments should support a policy to adjust the disparities for the sustainable regional innovation.

Innovation clusters developed or evolved around a specific region IS the key element of national innovation system and determine national competitiveness. Recognizing the importance of innovation clusters, Korean government has made "Daedeok Special R&D Zone" in 2005. This paper examines the success factors of famous Cluster in advanced countries and China, and proposes the strategy for regional development in Daejeon through boosting Daedeok Innovation Cluster. Although 30.5% of government R&D investment is being concentrated in Daedeok along with 10% of the country's doctorate degree holders, it is lack of increasing revenue by linking corporate R&D with a creative and challenging entrepreneur spirit. The core of the innovation cluster is the integration and mutual networking of the main participants. This paper suggests strategies for developing as a world class innovation cluster, global networking and clustering, venture ecosystem formation, commercialization the knowledge by interacting with market. It also explains the necessity of regional integration for cluster to cluster linkages in the East Asia Region.

Arguably many studies point out that regional innovation capabilities are accepted as a major source of growth for the sustainable regional economy. Recently, a smart specialisation strategy that should reflect regional characteristics in the policy implementation process of the regional innovation system has been proposed, but empirical studies have only presented limited results. This study attempts to overcome limitations by approaching smart specialisation as a supplementary strategy for existing regional innovation research. To this end, smart specialisation was not an alternative strategy for the regional innovation system, but rather the institutional elements of regional innovation capabilities, and the relationship between regional innovation capabilities and the local economy was analyzed to identify the impact of smart specialisation on the local economy. A study was conducted through a panel model consisting of 16 cities and provinces in Korea and 10 years from 2009-2018, and the FGLS model was finally used through the process of searching for an appropriate panel model. As a result of the study, smart specialisation consisting of industry related variety and non-related variety had a positive effect on the local economy. In addition, other regional innovation capabilities measured by dividing them into base and facilitating factors also had a positive effect on the local economy, reaffirming the results of positive research between existing regional innovation and the local economy. This study is meaningful in that smart specialisation lacking in domestic research was viewed as an institutional element of regional innovation capabilities, and it was measured through regional industry-related variety and non-related variety.
