지역 단위의 창업생태계 비교 분석: 경기도를 중심으로

This study analyzes the start-up ecosystem at the regional level, which has not been studied so far, to understand the current status of the Gyeonggido start-up ecosystem, and to give meaningful implications for Gyeonggido start-up policies. Gyeonggido is the region that contributes the most to the quantitative expansion of Korean start-ups. In particular, the infrastructure such as the incubation center is very excellent, and the number of R&D organizations and manpower is the highest in Korea. Based on this R&D infrastructure, the most patents are registered in Korea, and the number of scientific and technological papers was produced second most. In addition, the number of listed companies, which are leading companies with which start-ups can cooperate, is second only to Seoul, and market access is excellent in that it has the largest gross regional product(GRDP) in Korea. However, compared to Seoul, excellent start-ups are lacking, and funding/support infrastructure such as new venture investment amount, Venture capital companies, and start-up planners(accelerators) are relatively weak. In the future Gyeonggido should further strengthen the strength of the start-up ecosystem. For this the function of the start-up space should be strengthened so that it can play a role as a start-up platform and actively utilize R&D organizations and human resources such as universities and research institutes for start-ups. In addition, the scale-up policy should be greatly strengthened so that excellent start-ups can grow rapidly, rather than the quantitative expansion of start-ups, and the transition to an ‘innovative’ start-up ecosystem should be promoted.
