This study aims to suggest methods for improving innovation capability in Daegu-Gyeongbuk's mobile industry. Before offering suggestions, it analyzes the characteristics of technological innovation based on the mobile industry's value chain in Daegu-Gyeongbuk in relation to R&D workforce, R&D expenditures, and R&D networks. Support for R&D workforce in the Daegu-Gyeongbuk's mobile industry is concentrated in the mobile device and contents sectors. In addition, it is difficult for companies to finance R&D expenditures because most are SMEs, except for some large enterprises in the mobile device sector. R&D networks are structured mainly inside of companies, and linkages among universities, research institutes, and supporting institutes are weak in all sectors. To strengthen the innovation capability in Daegu-Gyeongbuk's mobile industry, therefore, human resource projects should be dispersed, and financial support should also be spread across value chain sectors rather than concentrated. Aside from this, a place for industry, academia, institutes, and government to build and enhance innovative networks should be created in all sectors.

Considering that firms' view on R&D activities may differ depending on the economic situation, in this paper, R&D policies that significantly affect the business performance are identified. The analysis is conducted by dividing the analysis time-frame into before and after the economic recession. In addition, we analyze by considering the type of industry, the proportion of R&D investment, and the type of government support policy that the companies participate in. According to the results of the empirical analysis, the provision of global market and technology information is recognized to give a significant impact on business performance for both before and after the economic recession. It is shown that recognizing the importance of 'supporting self-technology development', 'enhancing technical cooperation with foreign countries', and 'enhancing the contract and intellectual property protection system' that had significant effects before the recession did not significantly affect the business performance after the recession. The analysis results could give meaningful implications to the government for deciding which R&D activities should be supported.

The purposes of this study are 1)to analyze a needs of re-education & continuous education for R&D human resources 2)to systemize the existing education program and 3)to provide useful implications to help the politics for re-education & continuous education for R&D human resources. The survey to R&D human resources in universities, government-supported research institutes and industries was conducted for analyzing the needs of R&D human resources for the existing education programs through investigation for the current state and importance & satisfaction level for the existing program. For proposing the effective education program, the barrier and improvement factors of re-education program were examined as well. In addition, the needs for the government support policies for re-education program were also analyzed.

This study has developed Computable General Equilibrium (CGE) model reflecting endogenous growth economic theory, with the aim of analyzing double dividend hypothesis. This study analyzes possibility of economic growth and environmental improvement at the same time when government recycles the revenue of carbon tax to reduce existed taxes such as consumption tax, labor income tax, corporate tax. It also assesses the case of subsidy on R&D investment of renewable energy. With new and renewable generation technology adopted and disseminated, GDP loss would be lessened to a great degree. Tax recycling would provide economic gain by reducing distortion existed in the existing fiscal structure. The magnitude of economic gains from carbon tax recycling is biggest for recycling into corporate tax, and labor income tax, and then consumption tax in this order. It is also shown that double dividend effects occur in dynamic terms when government uses a carbon tax revenue to subsidize on R&D investment. At the end of the analysis period, emissions reduction would not result in GDP loss but in GDP gain. In particular, recycling into R&D increase would produce the largest and fastest GDP gain. Thus, implementing emissions reduction target would require careful consideration of economic effects by various policy instrument, including carbon tax.

The purpose of this study is to empirically analyze the impact of corporate innovation activities on corporate innovation performance using data from companies participating in the smart farm project. A company's innovation activities were divided into planning capacity, R&D capacity, and commercialization capacity, and the impact of each innovation activity on the company's sales and patent creation was estimated. The moderating effect was also analyzed. Regression analysis was conducted as a research method, and as a result of the analysis, it was found that planning capacity, R&D capacity, and commercialization capacity related to innovation within a company have an impact on corporate performance creation. appeared to be In order to increase the business performance of technology commercialization, it was confirmed that planning and R&D capabilities as well as governmental technology policy support are needed.

In the growth of the government's investment in national R&D project and the abuse of research expense, an effective control and management mechanism is strongly demanded. However, an excessive regulation might hinder the R&D performance, which also endangers the underlying objective of R&D policy. Especially, an excessive regulation on the R&D expenditure may damage the SMEs (Small and Medium sized Enterprises) where securing an adequate level of R&D funding is vital. This study investigates the R&D funding and R&D performance of SMEs participating in the national R&D project by using fixed effect panel model. As a result, this paper reveals the effectiveness of 'Government R&D subsidy'. However, that of 'private R&D fund' is not supported strongly. Also, this paper empirically demonstrates the efficiency of both 'Government R&D subsidy' and 'Private R&D fund' as the R&D costs are spent discretionarily (as the degree of 'Indirect Cost Ratio' increases). Especially, the effectiveness of 'Private R&D fund' can be moderated by 'Indirect Cost Ratio'. On the basis of the conclusions, this paper draws an implication that can increase R&D performance of SMEs through the interactions of manifold administrative values (i.e. effectiveness, efficiency and responsibility).

The paper examines the effects of tax incentives on corporate R&D expenditures. We regress tax incentives and financial variables on the increase or the level of corporate R&D expenditures. Tax incentive variables are the magnitude of R&D tax credit and the level of reserve for R&D, while financial variables are the amount or increase of R&D expenditures in prior years, profitability, cash flows and Tobin Q. Sample firms are selected among the listed companies which reported R&D expenditures in the financial statements from 1995 to 2000. The results indicate that increase and level of R&D expenditures is positively influenced by the magnitude of R&D tax credit and the level of reserve for R&D. The amount of R&D expenditures has positive relationship with prior one-year R&D expenditures, while the increase of R&D expenditures has negative relationship with prior year increase and recent three year's average of R&D expenditures. The evidence is consistent to the hypothesis and results of other studies, which suggest that tax incentives for R&D encourage the corporate R&D expenditures.

This study shows that it is reasonable for an R&D Information and Evaluation Center to have a building with the fifth floor above the ground and the second floor below the ground. A survey was conducted with 22,655 researchers who are registered in the NRF database. The researchers provided 883 responses. The results indicate that about 56% of the respondents positively support the construction of the NFR R&D Information and Evaluation Center. The survey results show that many respondents recognize that both evaluation and information integration functions among the NRF's roles are very important compared to other roles. The findings of the economic validity analysis support this statement. Based on the current demand for the construction of the R&D Information and Evaluation Center, this study investigates whether it is reasonable to build a new center in the available space while examining an environment focused on a physical work space and looking at significant results obtained through a cost-benefit analysis.
