Information system has been at center of economic development in several developed countries, and as Africa envision to improve its global economic competitiveness it is important to assess penetration rate the digital divide and catch-up effect over the years. This paper examined whether there exists digital divide and if so, is it narrowing over time and whether the ICT is converging with time in the African countries. Three technologies namely mobile-cellular, internet and fixed broadband were used to measure the digital divide and the catch-up effect. Gamma and sigma convergence methodology together with averaged penetration ratios were used to assess the cross-country performance of each technology. This study confirms both the narrowing of digital divide and convergence of ICT in all three technologies for both total group and subgroups. The digital gap was narrowing over time and the low-income countries were catching up faster to the middle-income countries in all three technologies. However, there are marked differences exhibited in the speed of narrowing digital divide and the speed of convergence between the total groups and the subgroups of countries. Some policy implications were discussed in the conclusion and they can be utilized in designing developmental ICT policies in each technology case for individual countries.

With the advent of the '4th Industrial Revolution', digitalization using AI (Artificial Intelligence), big data, IoT (Internet of Things), cloud computing and mobile is accelerating across all industries and global companies have fundamentally reorganized customer experiences, business models, and operations centering on digital transformation. Business innovation drives productivity improvement, process simplification, price, competitiveness and sustainable expansion. Whether digital transformation will be necessary for the current industrial environment is no longer important, and how quickly companies achieve digitalization has emerged as the utmost crucial element in industrial continuity. As non-face-to-face and remote technologies have begun in earnest, and accelerated in the pharmaceutical industry. They are looking for ways to provide value, generate profits, improve efficiency, and sustain the future. Compared to other industries, the pharmaceutical-related sectors have shown high interest in digital transformation especially to reduce costs and meet the challenge of delivering products during the pandemic environment.

Firms seldom survive and prosper solely through their individual efforts. Each firm's performance depends upon the activities and performance of others and hence upon the nature and quality of the direct and indirect relationships a firm develops with its counterparts. Textile companies have tried to improve their organizational competitiveness in order to survive in the digital age global market. The challenge in textile supply chain management is the development of collaboration network which accommodates diverse concerns of various participants while explicitly recognizing interdependencies and promoting effective relationship management. Major contents of the study are as follows. First, ideal collaboration network model from the supply chain of the textile industry is suggested. Second, utilizing the collaboration model, A framework for textile e-marketplaces supply chians is designed to improve customer services and delivery time, to promote information sharing, and shorten product life cycle time. The framework suggested is expected to promote corporate innovation and information sharing, generate infrastructure which provides appropriate communication and operations capabilities for the textile companies.

This study aims to analyze the correlation between semiconductor innovation and market dominance in the mobility electric vehicle industry. To this end, the study presentsstrategiesthat provide low-price competitiveness along with high-value creation in the electric vehicle and semiconductor markets. The first change in the era of high interest rates is to overcome the crisis of survival for value. Furthermore, the study acknowledges the ongoing second wave of change as the digital technology's value continues to rise, and companies experience decreased productivity due to rising ESG labor costs. The study analyzed price competitiveness in the context of the increased adoption of electric vehicles and the integration of semiconductor prices, proving that Tesla and Samsung Semiconductor have developed technology to dominate the market, with appropriate low-cost strategies applied as the value of innovation declines.

Artificial-intelligence (AI) semiconductors are crucial for securing national core competitiveness, including dominating the AI and data ecosystem and succeeding in the Digital New Deal. When examining the macroenvironment, the global division of labor in the semiconductor industry has weakened owing to the technological competition between the United States and China. Major countries are aiming to build the entire semiconductor ecosystem around their territories. As a result, these countries are formulating policy goals tailored to their realities and actively pursuing key policies such as research and development, securing manufacturing bases, workforce development, and financial support. These policies also focus on intercountry cooperation and bold government policy support, which is deemed essential. To secure core competitiveness in AI semiconductors, South Korea needs to examine the policy directions of major countries and actively formulate and implement policies for this semiconductor industry.

To ensure competitiveness in the modern automotive market, material arrangements and information managements should be performed concurrently with new car developments. In automotive general assembly shops, thus, new business workflow and supporting environments are inevitable to reduce the manufacturing preparation time in developing a new car in the manner of concurrent and collaborative engineering. Since complete material arrangements for a whole general assembly system is a huge and complex job, several planners should execute their planning jobs and share information. Therefore, each planner should provide others with his/her results with continuous on-line communication and cooperation. Digital automotive general assembly factory is useful the performing concurrent and collaborative engineering and is essential for material arrangements and information managements systems. In this research, we constructed a sophisticated digital factory of an automotive general assembly shop by measuring and modeling through the parametric 3-D CAD, and a web-based system for concurrent and collaborative material arrangements for automotive general assembly via 3D mock-up is developed. By the digital general assembly shop and developed web-based system, savings in time and colt of manufacturing preparation activities are possible, and the reliability of the planning result Is greatly improved.

최근의 글로벌 경영환경, 그리고 디지털 미디어를 통한 전자상거래가 활성화되고 있는 상황 하에서 수출기업들의 브랜드 및 웹 도메인 개발에 관한 의사결정은 매우 중요한 전략적 선택이다. 특히 웹 도메인 개발은 기업의 브랜드 전략과 밀접하게 관련되어 있기 때문에 브랜드 개발 시 동시에 개발되는 경우가 대부분이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 한국수출기업의 해외 브랜드 및 웹 도메인 개발 전략에 관한 수요조사결과를 토대로 수출브랜드전략의 결정요인을 탐색적으로 고찰하기위하여 실행되었다. 이를 위하여 본 연구에서는 브랜드전략 결정요인으로 수출경쟁력, 시장의 유사성, 환경의 불확실성으로 구분하고 브랜드 전략과의 관계를 회귀분석 하였다. 연구결과 한국수출기업의 경우에 기대한 바와 같이 수출경쟁력이 높을수록 OEM브랜드 수출비중이 낮고, 환경의 불확실성이 클수록 OEM브랜드 수출비중은 높은 것으로 나타났다. 그러나 시장의 유사성은 통계적으로 유의한 영향을 미치지 못한 것으로 나타났다. 자사브랜드 전략을 사용하고 있는 기업의 경우에도 수출경쟁력이 높은 기업일수록 글로벌브랜드를 선택하는 경향이 높고 환경의 불확실성이 클 경우에는 로컬브랜드 전략을 선택할 가능성이 높은 것으로 나타나 가설을 지지하였다. 그러나 시장의 유사성은 글로벌브랜드 전략 또는 로컬브랜드 전략과의 유의미한 통계적 관계를 보여주지 못했다.

정보통신의 발전은 다양한 정보기술기기의 출현을 지지하고 있다. 그리고 정보기술기기는 디지털 콘텐츠의 제작, 응용, 유통의 기능을 중심으로 그 수요가 증대되고 있다. 이러한 정보기술기기 시장의 성장은 기업에게 새로운 사업 기회를 제공한다. 하지만 정보기술기기 산업은 정보기술력이라는 장벽이 존재하여 기업이 쉽게 추격과 진입을 결정하기 어렵다. 때문에 일부 기업은 동종업계 타사와의 기술제휴를 통해 경쟁력의 기반을 갖추기도 한다. 다만 동종업계 기술제휴의 경우, 시장에서의 관계는 경쟁 관계일 수밖에 없다. 이러한 시각에서 본고는 외국 기업과 기술제휴를 통해 정보기술기기 시장에 진입한 국내 후발업체가 제휴사와의 경쟁에서 우위를 점하기 위한 전략을 모색하고자 하였다. 그리고 이를 위해 기술제휴 사례 연구를 진행하였으며, 사례에서 나타난 통계치를 바탕으로 전략적 시사점을 도출하였다. 그 결과 본고는 과학적인 수요예측을 통한 가격정책 수립, 브랜드 아이덴티티에 초점을 맞춘 시장의 사전조사 및 사후관리, 고객관리 접점의 효과적 구축 등이 필요함을 확인하였다. 디지털 콘텐츠의 제작, 응용, 유통을 담당하는 국내 정보기술기기 사업자의 성장은 디지털 콘텐츠 산업의 발전에도 도움을 줄 수 있을 것이라 기대된다.
