본 연구는 미래에 창업을 하고자하는 예비창업자에게 창업의도의 방향을 제시하기 위해 창업을 하기 전 자신을 알게 하고 정부지원과 교육의 필요성, 중요성을 일깨워주는 연구로 실증적으로 조사 규명하였다. 향후 예비창업자에게 창업준비를 충분히 하여 실패를 줄이고 정부지원제도의 지원체계가 복잡하지 않은 효율적인 제도가 되길 시사점으로 제시하였다. 실증 분석의 대상은 인천지역 직장으로 고용에 불안한 비정규직과 퇴직을 앞둔 남녀로 조사 258개 데이터로 사용 하였으며 창업을 하고 싶지만 자신감이 부족하고 실패에 대한 불안감으로 시작을 못하였다는 점으로 미루어보아 의미 있는 조사 분석이였다. 측정도구의 신뢰도 타당성을 검증하기 위하여 요인분석과 신뢰도 분석을 실시 카이저 (Kaiser Rule) 규칙이 있는 베리맥스(Varimax)직각회전을 이용한 주성분 요인분석을 사용하였다. 가설검증 결과 예비창업자의 심리적 특성, 창업준비 특성이 창업의도에 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났으며 창업교육 조절효과 분석 결과는 창업준비 기간과 창업의도 간에 조절효과가 나타났다. 개인적 특성에 따른 창업의도는 창업준비 특성에서 차이가 보여 졌다. 본 연구는 예비창업자로서 창업의도에 창업자로서 특성을 갖추어 성공적인 창업을 준비하고 정부지원제도에 필요한 자료로 제시하고자 한다.

본 연구에서는 지방자치단체에서 실시하고 있는 단기 창업교육프로그램 참가자들의 학습동기와 창업의지, 교육 만족도, 자기 유능감이 창업교육성과에 미치는 영향을 문헌적으로 고찰하였으며, 설정된 연구가설의 검증을 위하여 서울시와 인천시가 주관하는 단기 창업교육프로그램 참가자들을 대상으로 실증적 분석을 실시하였다. 실증 분석 결과를 요약하면, 첫째 단기 창업교육프로그램 참가자의 학습참여 동기는 교육만족도와 자기유능감에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 둘째, 단기 창업교육프로그램 참가자의 창업의지는 교육만족도에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 셋째, 참가자의 교육 만족도는 자기유능감에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 넷째, 학습자의 만족도와 자기유능감은 교육성과에 정(+)의 영향을 미쳤다. 연구 결과를 종합해보면 지방자치단체의 단기 창업교육프로그램 참가자의 학습 참여 동기와 창업의지가 높을수록 창업에 대한 다양한 지식과 기술 습득을 의미하는 자기 유능감과 만족도가 높아지며, 아울러 단기 창업교육프로그램에 대한 학습자의 교육성과 또한 높게 나타났다. 본 연구가 시사하는 바는 최근 들어 증가하고 있는 지방자치단체의 단기 창업교육프로그램이, 비교적 장기간에 걸쳐 진행되는 정규교육기관의 창업교육과는 달리, 짧은 기간 내에 효과적인 창업교육 성과를 달성하기 위해서는 교육 참가자들의 학습동기 및 창업의지 등 개인적 특성을 사전에 충분히 파악하여 적합한 대상자를 선발하여야 하며, 교육내용에 대한 만족도 제고를 통해 예비 창업자들이 스스로 다양한 창업관련 지식과 기술 등에 관한 자기 유능감을 향상시키는 데 주안점을 두어야 한다는 점이다.

Although recent policies and regulations in Korea strongly advocate and encourage cultivation of venture foundations, studies on venture foundation and success are very limited and often primarily focus on entrepreneurship or individual quality as a venture founder in addition to such studies' validity in question. Therefore, this study primarily focuses on venture preparation process which is subject to venture founder's effort to verify the policy effectiveness in the relationship between venture preparation and business performance. Major goal of this study is to reduce social cost of venture failure by suggesting systematic policy support for venture foundations and analyzing the relationship between following variables: first, venture preparation and financial performance, second, venture preparation and non-financial performance, and third, venture preparation and business performance. 400 initial venture foundations less than 5 years are selected from KISED(Korea Institute Startup & Entrepreneurship Development) trend analysis to carry out statistical analysis using SPSS 18.0. To organize the data features, frequency analysis as well as descriptive statistics are performed to verify the hypothesis. As a result, sub-factors in measurement of venture preparation which are venture education period, venture benefit, and experience of incubating organization are selected as independent variables. Likewise, sub-factors in measurement of business performance which are financial performance and non-financial performance are used as dependent variables. To validate interactive effect, venture preparation period is selected as control variable to perform hierarchical regression analysis. The analysis result verifies that venture benefit has positive influence on financial and non-financial performance while venture education period has positive influence on non-financial influence and experience of incubating organization has negative influence on non-financial performance without influence on financial performance. In addition, interaction of venture preparation period has positive influence solely between venture benefit and non-financial performance. Through this study, appropriate supporting plans depending on the level of venture preparation can be derived to improve business performance of initial venture foundations for policy designer of venture support, and quality rather than quality improvement of venture businesses is possible through investigation of structural issues of individual venture businesses. Ultimately, this study suggests venture founders to determine whether to focus on venture preparation process or to start a venture business.

Governments and private companies have established various local entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions in most regions in order to reduce youth unemployment, and boost youth entrepreneurship and regional employment. However, previous studies has been limited to explore the impact of the entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions on the willingness of start-up entrepreneurs. Thus, the main purpose of this study is to fill in the gaps of the research, identify the effect of the entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions on regional employment focusing on the Partner Squares which are entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions in several regions and established by N company, and set a foundation for further research regarding the effectiveness of the entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions. In order to verify the effectiveness of the Partner Squares on the local employment, we use the raw data of the Economically Active Population Survey (Statistics Korea) and analyze the effectiveness by using the Difference-in-Differences model. The main findings are as follows. While the Partner Square Seoul has not statistically influenced on the employment of local youth workers, the Partner Square Busan has increased about 3% of the average number of employees (575 thousand) from May 2017 to July 2019, increasing the number of local youth workers by 17,000. Also, after the establishment of the Partner Square Gwangju, the institution has increased 4,500 local employees, which is about 1.7% of the average number of employees (267,000) from September 2018 to July 2019. This implies that the Partner Squares provide a variety of effective start-up education programs and networks for pre-starters and founders in the region, thereby helping them to grow and boosting the local employment. An important implication is that by using government statistical data, we find roles of entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions to revitalize local economy and employment. In future studies, studies need to be conducted considering various exogenous variables that can affect local employment, such as the government industrial policies and entrepreneurial infrastructure institutions other than the Partner Squares.

In order to revitalize start-ups in the beauty field, this study attempted to derive characteristic patterns of changes in demand and differences in emotions and meaning for 'beauty start-ups' by dividing the period by year from 2019 to 2021 based on exploratory data analysis (EDA). Most of the search terms related to the keyword "beauty start-up" showed more interest in institutions or certificates that can learn beauty skills than professional start-up education, which still does not recognize the importance of start-up education, and as an alternative, it is necessary to develop customized start-up education programs for each major. We establish hypotheses through exploratory data analysis and verify hypotheses by combining traditional corroborative data analysis (CDA). There has never been an exploratory data analysis method for beauty startups, and rather than mentioning the need for formal start-up education, analyzing changes in interest in beauty startups and the requirements of prospective start-ups with exploratory data will help develop customized start-up programs.
