이 논문에서는 다양한 자료를 수집ㆍ활용하여 초창기 한국과학기술연구소 (KIST)가 한국 철강공업에 기여한 바에 대해 분석했다. KIST의 철강공업에 대한 가장 중요 한 기여로는 1969년에 있었던 신사업계획의 수립을 들 수 있다. 신사업계획은 종합제철사업 계획 연구위원회가 마련했으며, KIST의 김재관과 윤여경이 이를 주도했다. 신사업계획은 규 모의 경제, 설비의 구성, 제철소의 확장가능성 등의 측면에서 우수한 내용을 담고 있었다. 신 사업계획을 바탕으로 한국은 일본과의 협상을 추진하여 포항제철소 건설사업을 현실화할 수 있었다. 포항제철의 공식 기록은 오랫동안 신사업계획을 KIST가 주도했다는 점에 대해 언급 하지 않다가 최근에 들어서야 이를 수용하는 모습을 보였다. 이로써 KIST의 연구진이 신사업계획을 주도했다는 점은 KIST의 주장에 머물지 않고 포항제철도 인정하는 사실이 되었다. 신사업계획의 수립 이외에도 KIST는 일본과의 실무협상 추진, 제철소 운영에 대비한 예비조사, 일본 기술자를 활용한 기술자문 등을 통해 포항제철소 건설사업을 적극 지원했다. 이처 럼 KIST의 한국 철강공업에 대한 기여는 계획수립, 실무협상, 기술지원 등을 망라하는 총체적인 성격을 띠고 있었다. 이에 반해 기계공업, 조선공업, 자동차공업 등과 같은 다른 중공업 분야의 경우에는 KIST의 역할이 주로 계획수립의 차원에 머물렀던 것으로 판단된다.

As the competitiveness of small and medium businesses is getting more and more improved and globalized, the government provides various consulting services to secure the competitiveness of small and medium firms and support stable growth. However, the assessment of the result from the government’s support is generally focused on non-financial factors, such as customer satisfaction afterwards and analysis of improvement effect. This paper is in regards to the analysis of how much the government’s support in the form of providing consulting services contributes to financial outcomes and to the analysis of the gap of performances among the types of consulting services. We verified the statistical significance of our hypothesis through SAS9.4 and SPSS 22, conducting comparative analysis of the business growth and profitability based on the yearly balance sheets and income statements of 44 corporations which government supports and 150 corporations which are for comparison. The data is gained from CRETOP, Korea Enterprise Data, and the testing model is chosen as the business of support center for corporate growth, which is a customized supporting business of the Ministry of Trade, Industry, and Energy. As a result, in terms of business growth, it turned out to have positive difference in growth ratio compared to the industrial average and compared corporations and to have significant difference in terms of profitability as well. Since, this paper shows that the different supporting ways have significant difference, we would say that this paper is meaningful in that it may propose a guidance for government to set strategies of government-supporting businesses.

Cultural industry has grown into a pivotal part of the knowledge economy and it characteristically allows high employment of young population with high education and at the same time is a labor-intensive industry that yields high added values. For these reasons, it has been regarded as an industry that can be an answer to ever worsening problems of youth unemployment and deteriorating employment quality in the service industry sector. The Korean government has established and enacted government-level supporting policies to foster the cultural industry, especially in the 2000s. In the process, a supporting system for start-up businesses in the cultural industry was implemented to foster one-person culture businesses, focusing on the supporting system for start-up businesses established by the Small and Medium Business Administration (SMBA). This study will look into possible solutions to some problems that occurred in the course of implementing supporting policies for cultural industry and will see if there could be alternatives to them.
