우리나라의 혁신클러스터 정책은 지역균형발전을 목표로 2005년부터 본격적으로 추진되었다. 본 연구는 판교테크노밸리를 사례로 혁신클러스터 입주기업의 지속가능성에 영향을 미치는 요인을 조사하는 것을 목적으로 한다. 판교테크노밸리는 중앙정부 보다는 지자체(경기도)의 주도하에 건립되었고 ‘한국의 실리콘밸리’, ‘아시아 실리콘밸리’ 등으로 불리며 대표성이 커지고 있다. 성장하고 있는 판교테크노밸리는 2016년 대비 2017년에 입주기업 수가 감소하는 현상이 발생하였고, 2019년을 기점으로 판교테크노밸리의 비즈니스 생태계가 변할 수 있는 이슈(기업의 입지 이전 가능 이슈)가 발생하기 때문이다.
본 논문에서는 영향 요인을 조사하기 위해 양적 및 질적 연구를 통합하여 진행하였다. 설문조사를 기반으로 양적연구를 진행하고 인터뷰를 통한 질적 연구를 적용하였다. 양적 연구에서는 판교테크노밸리의 지속가능성에 영향을 주는 요인을 조사하였고, 질적 연구에서는 양적 연구결과에 대한 구체적인 이유와 추가적인 요인을 조사하였다. 양적 연구결과 기업내부여건변화, 인적‧물적 인프라, 협력 및 시너지, 입주형태 범주에서 지속가능성에 대한 영향력을 발휘하는 요인들이 나타났다. 영향력에 대한 구체적 이유는 질적 연구과정에선 나타났다. 지자체의 지원 범주는 양적 연구에서 의미있는 요인이 나타나지 않았다. 추가적으로 질적 연구를 통해 지속가능성에 영향을 가장 크게 발휘하는 범주로 ‘판교테크노밸리의 좋은 이미지’가 제시되었다. 판교테크노밸리 내 협력네트워크 활성화에 대해서는 기업들이 수동적인 자세를 취하고 있으며 지자체의 역할을 기대하고 있는 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 본 논문에서는 판교테크노밸리가 지속가능하기 위한 방안으로 현실적인 방안과 이상적인 방안을 함께 제시하였다.
Korea's innovation cluster policy has been implemented since 2005 with the goal of balanced regional development. The purpose of this study is to investigate the factors affecting the sustainability of innovative cluster tenants by using Pangyo Techno Valley as an example. Pangyo Techno Valley was established under the leadership of the local government (Gyeonggi-do) rather than the central government and it is called “Silicon Valley of Korea” and “Asia Silicon Valley” and is becoming more representative. The growing number of companies in Pangyo Techno Valley decreased in 2017 compared to 2016. This is because Pangyo Techno Valley's business ecosystem will change from 2019. In this paper, quantitative and qualitative studies were conducted to investigate the influencing factors. Quantitative research was conducted based on the survey and qualitative research was applied through interviews. The quantitative research examined the factors affecting the sustainability of Pangyo Techno Valley, and the qualitative research examined the specific reasons and additional factors for the quantitative research results. The quantitative results showed that factors affecting sustainability in terms of changes in corporate internal conditions, human and physical infrastructure, cooperation and synergy, and occupancy patterns. The specific reason for the impact appeared in the qualitative research process. The support category of local governments did not show any significant factors in quantitative research. In addition, qualitative research suggested 'Good image of Pangyo Techno Valley' as the category that has the greatest impact on sustainability. It is shown that companies are passive and expect the role of local governments in activating cooperation network in Pangyo Techno Valley. In this paper, based on the results of the study, Pangyo Techno Valley is presented with a realistic plan based on real estate issues and an ideal plan with a long-term perspective.
