Purpose: The current study focused on developing Klong Kone Shrimp Paste (Mesopodopsis) products and packaging, aiming to enhance the capabilities of entrepreneurs with cultural capital in post-pandemic Samut Songkhram Province. Research design, data and methodology: This study sought to analyze product and packaging issues and examine packaging expectations for Klong Kone shrimp paste. A combination of quantitative and qualitative methods was used, including a questionnaire administered to a sample of 400 individuals who purchased community enterprise products. Descriptive analysis, involving percentage, mean, and S.D., along with qualitative analysis through phenomenological methods, such as in-depth interviews and focus groups, were conducted with community enterprise entrepreneurs, experts, and customers. Results: The findings indicate that addressing product conditions and packaging issues with Klong Kone shrimp paste can be achieved by incorporating an attached label on the community product packaging. Conclusion: This approach is necessary due to the lack of community identity reflection and unattractive design, which currently deter customers from considering the products as souvenirs. Additionally, diversifying product offerings is recommended to better align with consumer needs. In terms of packaging expectations, a majority of respondents expressed a strong preference for an attractive appearance.

The significant role of the national standards has ever been growing as a critical infrastructure of the national competitiveness. Strategic policies for the advancement of the national standards system in Korea are suggested based on the analysis of trends surrounding the national standards at home and abroad. National standards failing in securing international recognition of its technical competence give an adverse effect to the improvement of industry and national welfare. As a most effective way toward the advancement of the national standards system, the national metrology institute should be placed at the top of the national standards system so as to exert its influence with its technical capabilities close to international level. Efforts are to be made to secure international credibility of the national standards through faithful implementation of the requirements of the mutual recognition arrangement(MRA). And, the legal structures should be refined to be in harmony with the global environment.

This research has been focused upon and analyzing Medison, once a leading New Technology-Based Firm (NTBF) in Korea with exceptionally advanced technology in 3D ultrasound diagnostic imaging devices (UDIDs) (armored with 23 subsidiaries at its peak expansion), from the perspective if Dynamic Firm Capability(DFC). The underlying hypothesis is that the various problems from its pointless pursuit of the business styles or precedents of the existing large firms might be traced to its specific characteristics as an NTBF, which should have more preferably been based upon the distinctive competences such as differentiated technologies, institutional linkages, organizational routines, and complementary assets, etc. In conclusion, for the NTBFs with different DFC domains from those of the large firms, the optimal external linkages and comprehensive integration efforts (Process) under their specific organizational characteristics and constraints (Path) are highly recommended for the continuous accumulation of their core capabilities based upon the technological assets (Position).

The purpose of this paper is to study the pattern of interactive learning in strategic networks. Interactive learning is defined as the exchange and sharing of knowledge resources conducive to innovation between an innovator firm, its suppliers, and/or its customers. The strength of internal knowledge resources can either hamper or facilitate levels of interactive learning. We assume that more complex innovative activities urge firms to co-ordinate and exchange information between users and producers, which implies a higher level of interactive learning. To test our theoretical claims, we estimated the level of interactive learning of firms in strategic networks with: (1) their customers, (2) their suppliers. Theses analyses allow a comparison of the antecedents of interactive learning of firms participating in strategic networks. Our findings suggest that interactive learning with customers is positively affected by company's capabilities and value-created activities, and with supplies is positively affected by value-created activities and technology innovation centers.

Recent entrepreneurship studies emphasize the importance of entrepreneurial activities of entrepreneurs. This study focuses entrepreneurial behaviors, especially entrepreneurial networking activities of Korean high-tech ventures. Networking activities can utilize external resources which are critical to success, with less resource commitment. This study examines the relationship between characteristics of entrepreneurial networking and performance, and analyses influencing factors of entrepreneurial networking activities. Based on the data from 55 new high-tech ventures in Korea, hypotheses that the characteristics of entrepreneurial networking are related to the performance of new high-tech ventures are tested using regression analysis and t-test. Major findings of this study are as follows: (1) entrepreneurial networking are related to the performance of new high-tech ventures, (2) significant differences are found in the characteristics of entrepreneurial networking between high- and low-performance firms, (3) characteristics of entrepreneurs and firm' technological capabilities are related to the degree of entrepreneurial networking activities. Finally, managerial and policy implications of the study are presented and future research directions are also suggested.

This research examines the characteristics of incubating organizations of hi-tech ventures in the information technology industry. In particular, it attempts to investigate incubating conditions under which entrepreneurs obtain their management abilities and market information, locate business partners and prepare the prototypes of their new products. For the empirical test, three incubator organizations, two universities (Seoul National University and Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology ) and a government research institute (ETRI: Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute) are compared in terms of incubating conditions. It is found that two universities are not different in terms of lab members' demographic characteristics and their attitude towards venture creation. However, the entrepreneurial environments of incubator organizations are different between the universities and ETRI. The universities have more favorable environments than ETRI in terms of management know-how or capabilities, while ETRI has more favorable environments than the universities in terms of the information about markets, distribution channels or customers. The results of this study would provide many policy implementations to administrators of incubator organizations as well as government policy-makers in making effective venture-creation policies.

Government-sponsored Research Institutes (GRIs) have made a great contribution to the development of Korea's Science and Technology (S&T). However, recently, GRIs are facing the challenge of many problems, for instance, absence of reasonable strategies, insufficient resources, and so on. Therefore, many GRIs are required for solving these problems by enhancing their strategic management capabilities. For this purpose, this paper suggests a Strategic Management Audit Model for Korean GRIs. The concept of Strategic Management Audit Model has not been widely adopted in Korean GRIs. In this paper, we suggest GRI-specific Strategic Management Model and apply it to Korea Basic Science Institute (KBSI), which is under the Korea Research Council of Fundamental Science and Technology (KRCF). Based on our strategic management audit, we propose several potential strategies for Korean Basic Research Institutes (KBSI). Our model and its implications will also be helpful for other Korean GRIs.
