초록

오늘날 역동적이고 불확실성이 큰 시장 환경 속에서 급진적 혁신의 성과를 높이는데 있어서 외부지식 탐색 전략의 중요성은 커지고 있다. 하지만 외부지식 탐색 전략에 대한 기존의 연구들은 지식의 원천을 구분하지 않고 모호하게 측정하였기 때문에 외부지식 탐색 전략이 급진적 혁신성과에 미치는 영향에 대해 상반된 결과들이 존재하였다. 이에 본 연구에서는 급진적 혁신을 위한 새로운 지식이 다른 환경에서 배태되었을 경우 각기 상이한 특성을 지닐 수 있음을 고려하여, 외부지식 탐색 전략을 '시장 관계'와 '비시장 관계'로 나누어 이들이 급진적 혁신성과에 미치는 영향을 살펴보고자 한다. '시장 관계'는, 기업이 시장에서 직접적으로 맞닿게 되는 행위자들로 구성된 원천으로 이들을 통해 시장지식(Market Knowledge)을 제공하는 반면에, '비시장 관계'는 시장 내에서 기업들이 직접적으로 경쟁하는 관계가 아니지만 시장지식을 넘어서는 새롭고 참시한 기초 과학적 지식(Basic Scientific Knowledge)을 습득할 수 있게 한다. 이렇게 외부지식의 원천을 구분함으로써 각각 이들이 제공하는 지식의 고유한 특성과 급진적 혁신 성과 간의 관계에 대한 이해를 보다 깊이 하고자 하였다. 이를 위하여 과학기술정책연구원(STEPI)에서 제공하고 있는 제조업 분야의 431개 기업 데이터를 활용하여 실증 분석하였다. 분석 결과 외부지식 탐색 전략 중 '시장 관계'에 기반을 둔 광범위하고 심도 있는 외부지식 탐색은 모두 급진적 혁신 성과에 긍정적인 영향을 미치는 것으로 나타났지만, '비시장 관계'를 통해 탐색된 외부지식은 급진적 혁신 성과에 영향을 미치지 못하는 것으로 나타났다. 이러한 연구 결과는 기업이 급진적 혁신성과를 향상시키기 위해서는 시장 내의 행위자들과 상호 협력적인 관계를 유지해 나가면서 시장 지식을 효율적으로 활용할 필요성이 있음을 시사한다.

Abstract

This paper investigates the relationship between external search strategy and radical innovation performance. As the discrepancies that can exist among the varying sources of external knowledge is overlooked, the existing literature on the effect of external search strategy on radical innovation performance remains inconclusive. This study aims to reconcile such mixed findings by recognizing that external knowledge can be distinctive depending on the environment in which its source is embedded in; specifically, this paper examines the relationship between external search strategy and radical innovation performance by distinguishing external search from 'market' and 'non-market' relationships. We test our hypotheses with a sample of 431 firms from the manufacturing industries from the 2010 STEPI survey. Our empirical findings suggest that external search strategy from market relationships positively influences radical innovation performance, while the influence of external search strategy from non-market relationships is found to be not significant. Our research suggests that in order to improve radical innovation performance, firms must be able to maintain a cooperative relationship with other actors connected with market relationships and to effectively exploit the market knowledge obtained from these actors.
