Established as the first science park in the world in the late 1950's, the Research Triangle Park(RTP) has not jut grown significantly but also has been successful in the transition from the exogenous development model to the endogenous development model. In this context, this paper attempts to explore the evolutionary path of the RTP by drawing upon the concept of triple-helix spaces of regional innovation. Firstly, the three research universities in the triangle area, as a knowledge space, played a fundamental role for forming the RTP. However, it is difficult to say that the regional universities, as opposed to the Silicon Valley and the Boston area, have had a significant impact on inducing the dynamics of the cluster evolution and the triple helix spaces. Secondly, it can be argued that the North Carolina's Board of Science and Technology, which was formed in 1961 but traced back to the 1950's in its origin, has been a centerpiece of a consensus space that makes a contribution to creating, sustaining and transforming the RTP as a triple-helix-based innovation cluster. Thirdly, there have been a plenty of agents to be an innovation space in the RTP. Particularly, the North Carolina Biotechnology Center(NCBC) and the Microelectronic Center of North Carolina(MCNC) have been the boundary permeable agents to make triple-helix agents interact. Today, the RTP has the triple-helix spaces with the structure that a consensus spaces is centered on out of the three, but all of those are inter-connected and influenced by each other. It can be claimed that the RTP today shows the dynamic structure of cluster evolution in a way in which the existing industry sectors have adapted to the changes in external environment and the new industry sectors have emerged at the same time.

Recently, many cities and regions of the world attempt to promote cultural and arts activities in order to vitalize regional economies and strengthen local identity. Some old industrial cities of the advanced economies in particular often introduce cultural and arts activities in renovating obsolete urban infra-structure, revitalize urban economy, clean polluted urban environment, and advertise various development projects. A small Canadian city, Stratford, Ontario, has shown a spectacular success in such efforts. By hosting Shakespearian festivals every year since 1953, the theatre company, the Shakespearian Festival of Canada in Stratford, sells about 600 thousands tickets, attracting 2 million visitors to the area. With the festivals, the city became able to host a large cultural cluster composed of the theatre company, chef school, summer music festival, and Chicago Associates. The city has also able to maintain one of the most competent theatre companies in the North America.

This paper aims to analysis the production linkage relationships between large firm and its subcontracting firms, especially focus on the spatial network and collaboration network. For the purpose of it, the division of semiconductor in Samsung Electronics and its most important subcontracting firms are picked up for the case study. The empirical study show that the location distribution pattern of Samsung Electronic's subcontracting firms is concentrated very highly on the Kyeong-Ki Province and Chung-Nam Province in Korea, which is the location sites of Samsung Electronic's key plants as well as the best environment for business in Korea. And the major subcontracting firms seems to be in the hierarchic and vertical relationship with Samsung Electronics rather than horizontal and good collaboration network in this case.

Abstract The purpose of this paper is to analyze production and innovation networks of manufacturers in the rural, long-live areas of Gangwon Jeju and to suggest an ideal regional development model of rural areas in the knowledge-based information age. For this purpose, we compared the areas of Gangwon Jeju with the long-live belt areas in the rural pan of the Honan region and Gwangju Jeonju, the urban part of Honam. The findings from the study are summarized as follows. Firstly, the stronger the local networks in terms of supply of the necessary input materials and labor, the more successful the manufacturing industry is in the given area. Secondly, the more diverse and lasting the networks (in terms of the location of manufacturers, local area and national area) and cooperation agents(businesses, research institutions, the local government, the central government) they have, the more prosperous the manufacturing industry is. These results indicate that the successful development model for rural areas requires that we take the approach of fostering potential innovation capabilities of total areas by fully utilizing their innate resources so as to create an internal cooperative network and further build extensive networks encompassing external entities to create a virtual innovation cluster.

This study aims at investigating the effects of Government R&D subsidies. We analyse the effects of inputs and behavioral additionality on the output additionality. We also measure the moderate effects of the experiences of benefiting from government R&D on the relationship between inputs and behavioral additionality and the output additionality. We conducted a structured questionnaire on the companies who have participated in promotion program of the Korea Innovation Cluster. 126 responses were collected and alnalysed using the OLS technique. Empirical results show that the relationship between input/behavioral additionality (management, follow-up, cognitive capacity) and output additionality had positive effect. The moderating effects of experiences of R&D subsidy on the relationship between input additionality and output additionality and the relationship between cognitive additionality and the output additionality appear to be statistically significant.

Universities and local governments in Korea are simultaneously experiencing the difficulties of a decrease in the youth population and a decrease in the school-age population, and close cooperation between universities and local governments is urgently needed to solve this problem. Representative methods of such cooperation include the establishment of a regional innovation system and the theories of innovation clusters and triple helix models. In addition to these theories, the aim is to derive sustainable conditions for the local government-university cooperation model by examining various cases of cooperation at home and abroad. This is the purpose of this paper. In particular, through case studies of cooperation between local governments and universities at home and abroad, three types of models (job, education, and housing) were analyzed, and common conditions and requirements for sustainable cooperation were proposed. In order for cooperation between local governments and universities to continue and produce successful results, mutual benefit creation, infrastructure construction and operation appropriate for capabilities, flexibility, and mutual responsibility are necessary. Furthermore, a model that suits the capabilities of local governments and universities must be found, and in this process, the university's research capabilities and commercialization capabilities of research results are especially important. In addition, it is essential to establish a new cooperation system between local governments, universities, and the central government.
