Essential to the development of china's economy, policy makers have paid constant attention to the logistics sector which is attracting growing volumes of both foreign and domestic investment. The inefficiencies are exacerbated by a number of factors such as transportation bottlenecks, regulatory constraints and local barriers to entry. Foreign and foreign-invested logistics companies have typically cornered the express delivery (for example DHL, FedEX), sea freight forwarding and specialized logistics services (for example Hanjin Shipping). The purpose of this paper is to contribute to the activation of Korean companies' entry into China's logistics market by studying the strategies and types for Korean companies enter into China's logistics Market.

This study analyzed the successful case of Naver LINE's entry into the Japanese market. LINE pursued a strategy of establishing its dominance early on and implemented localization for Japan and thereby achieved success in the Japanese market. The various strategies adopted by LINE allowed it to win over 80% of the market share in Japan and function as a nationally ubiquitous mobile messenger. The conclusions to be drawn from our LINE analysis is that LINE must implement localization strategies suited to the characteristics of each country, as it had done successfully in Japan. In the Asian region, it should retain the platform that provides various contents while pursuing a localization strategy to secure competitive edge, by offering emoticons suitable for each country, such as Ramadan emoticons in Islamic regions.

Purpose - This study involves the following questions: "Does internalization theory fully explain reality?" and "Which additional factors may add extra value to the theory?" To answer these, this study divides market entry mode into two steps, initial and subsequent and then, focuses on the subsequent distribution step; that is, the post-entry strategy after initial entry. In addition, this study relies on finding strategic orientations that affect the decision of post-entry into foreign markets. Research design, data, and methodology - To investigate this, this study examines 252 cases of Korean online games for each foreign market and the distribution mode at the product-team level. Results - The result shows that companies use different distribution strategies as a post-entry mode, like licensing, or joint distribution rather than exclusive distribution, through subsidiaries even if they already have wholly owned local subsidiaries which have enough experience and resources to select the entry modes among various types and then provide full commitment and control. Additionally, it finds that strategic orientation affects post-entry strategies differently. Conclusions - Therefore, this study is noteworthy and significant, as it practically extends the existing theories such as an internalization and distribution for decision making regarding the overseas expansion of entertainment businesses.

점차 가속화되고 있는 세계화 과정 속에서 대외개방은 자원이 제한적인 중소기업들에게 기회 혹은 위협으로 다가오고 있다. 특히 대외개방에 대한 경영자들의 인식은 향후 중소기업의 대외개방에 대한 대응 방안과 전략을 결정하게 되므로 매우 중요하다 할 수 있다. 이에 본 연구는 어떤 종류의 전략과 관련된 혁신활동을 수행하는 중소기업이 대외개방을 보다 긍정적으로 인식하는지 고찰하였다. 또한 이 관계가 중소기업의 외부 지식 탐색 전략과 시장 진입 전략에 따라 어떻게 달라지는지 관찰하였다. 한국 과학기술정책연구원(STEPI)의 기술혁신조사를 바탕으로 실증 분석을 수행한 결과, 차별화 전략을 위한 혁신활동을 수행하는 중소기업이 대외개방에 대해 긍정적으로 인식하는 것으로 나타났다. 이에 대하여 외부 지식 탐색의 폭과 깊이로 인한 조절효과는 음의 방향으로 나타났으며, 시장 최초 진입 전략으로 인한 조절효과는 양의 방향으로 나타났다.

국내 사회간접자본(Social Overhead Capital; SOC)에 대한 예산축소 및 부동산 시장 안정화 정책 등으로 도시개발 경기가 침체되고 있어 국내 건설기업의 해외시장 진출에 대한 관심이 꾸준히 증가하고 있다. 그러나 국내 건설기업은 해외 도시개발 시장에서 금융조달 및 해외 프로젝트 관리 능력이 우수한 해외 선진 기업들에 비해 열세를 보이고 있는 실정이다. 이에 국내 기업은 진출 국가의 환경과 수준에 맞는 도시개발 모델을 선정하고, 높은 해외 사업 리스크를 관리할 수 있는 진출 전략 수립이 필요하다. 본 연구에서는 기존 연구와 문헌 분석, FGI를 통해 해외 도시개발 시장 진출 요인을 도출하고, 설문조사 및 IPA 분석을 통해 실시하였다. 이를 통해 일련의 국내 민간기업 해외 도시개발 시장 진출 전략을 도출하였다.
