Abstract

Corporate business clusters create a borderless business network through value chains and value creation activities. Clusters in the IT sector are crossing regional boundaries because of their rapid technological development and short product life cycle. To investigate this phenomenon, we examined the value activities of IT companies. As a result, the global expansion of the case companies was limited, but they had business clusters that exceeded the regional boundaries. However, because the order of business clusters is not advanced, value activities are focused on productivity rather than innovation. Given the rapidly evolving nature of IT, it is necessary to evolve into a business cluster that can create new value. Companies must design and implement value-creating processes to develop new technologies or enter new markets, which can lead to cluster growth.

기업의 비즈니스 클러스터는 가치연쇄 및 가치창출 활동을 통하여 국경없는 비즈니스 네트워크를 만들고 있다. 기술개발속도가 빠르고 제품수명주기가 짧은 IT분야의 클러스터는 지역 경계를 넘어선지 오래이다. 현상을 파악하기 위해서 IT기업을 대상으로 가치 활동을 분석하였던 바, 사례기업의 글로벌 확장은 제한적이었으나 지역경계를 넘는 비즈니스클러스터를 확인하였다. 다만 비즈니스 클러스터의 질서는 생산성에 집중되어 있기 때문에 고도의 혁신질서가 요구된다. 즉 신기술개발 또는 신시장 진입을 위한 가치창출 프로세스를 설계하고 실현하여야 클러스터의 성장을 가져올 수 있을 것이다. 빠른 속도로 진화하는 IT분야의 특성을 감안할 때 새로운 가치창출형 비즈니스 클러스터의 지향은 필수적이다.
