Industrial Technology Development Program enables the recipient to set up technology infrastructure and to facilitate technology diffusion. In return, government charges royalty from the program recipient. However, the current royalty system is not in the effective form. This study analyzes the various aspects of royalty collection methods applied to the Industrial Technology Development Program and recommend the following: (1) employ the combination of fixed amount royalty and running royalty with predetermined portion of revenue generated, (2) adjust the royalty collection duration by applying product life cycle, and (3) devise new program to link extra-gain from royalty collection with commercialization and other means to increase the effectiveness of research and development activities.

Since the R&D Program for Small and Medium-sized Enterprises started in 1997 as a part of Small and Medium Business Administration, many companies succeeded to carry out the tasks and were charged royalty fees from the government aid program in return. However, some of them were unable to pay a royalty because of their poor financial positions. Failure to pay a royalty also led to adding administrative duties including debt collection and imposing a penalty of participation restriction for other R&D programs. To solve the problems incurred by a failure of royalty collection, a divided payment using a surety insurance was introduced in 2009. That is, the R&D program recipients who were charged royalties issue surety insurance policies and submit them to a collection agency with a plan of divided payment. In this study, we estimate the main benefits of introducing surety insurance for royalty collection. First, we analyze royalty collection results from recipients supported by the R&D program from 1997 to 2006. By doing so, we calculate the main parameters that will be used for estimating the 2011 collection results. Next, besides estimating the quantitative effect, which summarizes an increase of royalty collection via surety insurance, we also analyze various qualitative effects such as simplification of the collection process and expansion of opportunities for participation in R&D programs.

The industrial Technology Development Program enables the recipient to set up technology infrastructure and to facilitate technology diffusion. In return, government charges royalties to the program recipient. However, the current royalty system is not effective form. This study analyzes the various aspects of royalty collection methods applied to the Industrial Technology Development Program and recommends the following: a) to establish a royalty collection system with appropriate charges for both fixed royalties and running royalties, dependent upon type of technology development b) to seek a method to setup different collection periods for industrial categories in consideration of product life cycle c) to review on ownership of intangible property. In addition, in order to manage the entire royalty process effectively, prompt establishment is needed in order for a responsible evaluation institute to create task forces to evaluate technology value, to transfer technology, to support technology commercialization, to collect and manage royalty and expand and report result.

Along with the launch of National R&D Program in 1982, National R&D licensing policy began to operate in order to expand and promote the outputs of R&D. Even though various studies attempted to draw plans to improve the National R&D licensing policy, most of their focus was limited to the collection and allocation structure of royalty. Thus, with the aim of approaching National R&D licensing policy in a whole cyclic perspective [from collection allocation to execution' post control], this study incorporates interviews with specialists and officials in charge of technology licensing fee, Industry-University-Institute surveys as well as literature review. Through this endeavor, suggestions are made in the aspects of (1) National R&D licensing policy reformation, (2) Technology licensing fee collection and allocation structure refinement, (3)Post control system establishment.

Purpose - This study aimed to identify the impact of consumers' perception of the value of discount store PB products on brand loyalty and repurchase intention and simultaneously check whether consumers showed a different position depending on gender difference and age. Research design, data, and methodology - For data collection, total of 174 valid copies of questionnaire were obtained for analysis. And simple regression, multiple regression and hierarchical moderated regression analysis was conducted for hypothesis verification and implication Results - It was found that functional, social and emotional value perceived by consumers had a positive impact on brand loyalty and repurchase intention. And it was found that consumers who were in a relatively lower age group were positive, in the relation between emotional value and repurchase intention only. Conclusions - It was suggested that consumers accept discount store PB products positively overall. Therefore, discount stores must not only need to develop their strengths in various parts of PB product beyond consumer's positive perception but also make efforts to raise the social awareness of the use of PB products. And they have to promote consumer decision making by concentrating on emotional factors take a different approach to consumers in a higher age group.
