We study the casual relationship between characteristics and effectiveness of NamDong Cluster in Incheon by using factor analysis in order to suggest, it is hoped, an alternative way to form innovative regional or national cluster. The findings of the study is that several factors such as cluster networking, collective learning, innovation synergy, localization, are critical factors to corporate performance. Also, cooperation between big enterprises and small and medium enterprises is the major influential factor so that financial and institutional supports for co-works or co-program development among enterprises are suggested.

This paper analyses the relative efficiency and competitiveness of production structure for the industrial clusters(Ulsan, Changwon, Kumi, Wonjoo, Banwol & Siwha, Kwangwju, Gunsan) which had allocated in 2004 in Korea by the DEA approaches. The results show that except U1san, Wonjoo, the 5 industrial clusters have improved the relative efficiency in terms of input and output since they were allocated. And, the reason of the inefficiency for the 5 industrial clusters were not for the technical relationship but for the production scaling size. That is, by clustering for the industrial production firms, the economic effect came true throughout the production scaling size effects. Also, by the positioning approach for the production factors such as labor, capital, and R&D investment via production growth, the results show that Banwol & Siwha, Goomi clusters have effectively been managed, but Wonjoo, U1san and Gunsan are not.

This paper shows the researches on technological innovation which make constant economy growth in the knowledge based economy. And this paper also suggests the policy on technological innovation for the future growth of society. Main focus of this paper are as follows. First, the theoretical survey on technological innovation is reviewed. Second, the program and the supporting system for technological innovation in the USA and Europe are investigated. Third, the situation and problems of Korea is analysed. Fourth, strategy and suggestions on the development of technological innovation in the 21st century knowledge based economy is suggested through the window of cluster and regional economy development.

정부는 지역의 내생적인 역량을 바탕으로 지역혁신을 활성화하기 위하여 지역별로 연구개발특구 제도를 시행하고 있다. 연구개발특구내 각종 세제혜택과 정책적인 지원을 받는 연구소기업 제도는 지역혁신활성화를 위해 새롭게 등장한 혁신액터이다. 그러나, 이러한 연구소기업의 모형에 대한 연구는 체계적으로 이루어지지 않고 있으며, 대부분의 기업혁신활동에 대한 연구는 수도권과 대전 중심으로 이루어졌다. 본 연구에서는 기업대표를 대상으로 우수 연구소기업 모형 선정을 위한 요소들을 선정하고 AHP(계층적 분석기법)을 통하여 우수 모형을 선정하였다. 그 결과, 우수한 연구소기업 모형을 선정하는 데 가장 중요한 요인은 기술요인으로 나타났으며, 그 중 기술의 우수성을 최우선적으로 선택하였다. 또한, 세가지 연구소기업 모형 중, 합작투자형을 가장 선호하는 것으로 조사되었다. 본 연구는 지역을 기반으로 체계적인 우수 연구소기업 모형을 선정하는 시스템을 확립하고 정책적 시사점을 도출하는 성과를 거두었으며, 특히 제2의 도시임에도 불구하고 혁신클러스터 논의에서 소외된 부산지역을 중심으로 본 연구가 진행된 것에 큰 의미가 있다. 향후 설문범위와 숫자를 확대한다면 더 좋은 정책적 의미를 거둘 수 있을 것으로 보인다. 향후 연구소기업의 모형에 따른 장단점 분석과 함께 지역에서의 기술혁신활동에 대한 연구가 더욱 증가되어야 할 것이다.

This paper examined opportunities and limitations of building an innovation cluster based on large scale research facilities (LSRF). For this purpose, success factors of innovation clusters were drawn from the literature, and categorized into knowledge & technology, transaction cost & agglomeration economies, hardware & software infrastructure, and government policy & strategy. Utilizing the categorization as an analytic framework, case studies of CERN and SPring-8 were performed. The results showed that there were various innovation processes for both cases, creating opportunities for developing innovation clusters in terms of knowledge and technology. On the other hand, in the case of SPring-8, there were disadvantages in the transaction cost and agglomeration economies, being located in a remote area due to the nature of the facility. Software & hardware infrastructure of SPring-8 limited its potential for innovation clusters. Regarding government policy and strategy, CERN, as a multinational institution, did not consider an innovation cluster in a specific region despite some advantages. An innovation cluster around SPring-8 was promoted by government policy despite some disadvantages. In other words, the advantages and disadvantages were enhanced or complemented by software & hardware infrastructure and government policy & strategy. Based on the results, this paper provides the implications for the Korean International Science-Business Belt.

This paper examines the triple helix innovation system in the Oresund food cluster, considered as one of the most competitive food clusters in the globe. The result of the case study represents that the triple helix system of the Oresund food cluster is composed of three layers of triple helix spaces. Such three triple helix spaces play a crucial role in making the industry-university-government relationships interactive and dynamic. First, knowledge spaces in the Oresund food cluster are very strong and competitive in education and R&D capabilities in related to the food sector. 14 universities in the Oresund region are connected and coordinated by the integrated organization body, called the Oresund University. Second, the Oresund Food Network(OFN), as a central consensus space in the Oresund food cluster, functions as a pivotal organization that facilitates and coordinates cooperations between firms and universities. Third, most important innovation space in the triple helix system of Oresund food cluster can be science parks and business incubators such as Ideon Science Park, which contribute to linking, between research and commercialization, and between firms and universities in the region. In a nutshell, the Oresund food cluster has been evolved as an innovative regional cluster on the basis of well-established three-layered triple helix spaces of regional innovation system.

This paper explores the triple helix innovation system in Food Valley in the Netherlands which is considered one of the most innovative food clusters in the world. The triple helix approach has been so far little tackled in the literature on innovation system and cluster. However, tills approach can be a useful tool for understanding the dynamic characters and knowledge transfer mechanism of industrial cluster. On the basis of an in-depth case study, we argue that Food Valley has evolved through four circles of growth in the triple helix innovation system. From the mid-2000s onward, it is seen that Food Valley has been on the stabilized circle in the triple helix system of innovation. Centered upon Wageningen UR, local universities and research centers play a pivotal role in building the triple helix innovation system. To cope with radical changes in markets and technology since the late 1980s, local firms have made a great deal of effort to reinforce the university-industry partnership. On the other hand, government agencies have played a critical role for establishing institutional milieu that facilitate university-industry partnerships and local knowledge transfer and spillover.
