키워드 네트워크 분석을 통해 본 기술사업화 연구 30년(1990-2020)

Since 1960s, the transfer and diffusion of knowledge has been introduced as a new growth opportunity for the country. To jump on the bandwagon, the Technology Transfer Act was enacted in Korea in 2000 and it served as a turning point for recognizing the important value of innovation through R&D. As it has been over 20 years since the act was implemented, we review similarities and differences between Korean and foreign studies. Through this, it would be a useful reference to predict the market signals of the newly designed policies and to reflect such data into actual policy designing. For this purpose, papers on technology commercialization published by Korean and foreign authors(1990-2020) have been gathered and their research keywords have been analyzed by decades. The results show that the types of keyword become diverse since the 1990s and research trends between international and domestic research show some time lag, but both follow similar directions. Foreign studies are primarily interested in collaboration and relationship. However Korean papers tend to focus on players and be the dominant presence of the government and public research institutes in the related discussions.
