초록

현재 급변하는 환경 속에서 각 국가는 일자리 창출 및 기술 경쟁력 강화를 위한 노력을 지속하고 있다. 특히 벤처기업 및 창업기업에 대한 지원과 활성화 정책은 국가 경쟁력을 높이는 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 있다. 경쟁 심화로 비즈니스 수명이 짧아지고 고객들의 요구가 다양화되는 환경의 불확실성이 확대되는 가운데 기업은 적절한 대처를 해야 한다. 우선 기업은 스스로 내부 역량을 강화하는 노력을 하는 것이 중요하다. 그러나 벤처기업은 내부 자원 및 역량 등이 부족하여 외부 환경으로부터의 지원이 기업의 생존으로 연결될 만큼 중요하다고 볼 수 있다(Timmons, 1994). 기업의 경쟁력 강화를 위해 국가 차원에서 재정지원 및 인증제도를 운용하고 있다. 그러나 재정지원은 상황에 따라 기업의 자생력을 낮출 수 있으므로 연구개발 지원 및 창업교육과 같은 비 재정적 지원이 벤처기업 성장에 장기적으로 도움이 된다고 보았다(Aghion et al., 2012; 전미미·고강혁, 2021). 비 재정적 지원은 사업화, 시설, 공간, 보육, 인력, 인증제도 등으로 구분되는데 본 연구에서는 인증제도인 벤처기업 확인제도의 혜택을 중심으로 확인하였다. 이를 위해 2021년도 벤처기업정밀실태조사 데이터 및 벤처기업의 매출액 데이터를 활용하였으며, SPSS 26.0 패키지와 SPSS PROCESS MACRO를 활용하여 분석하였다. 분석 결과, 벤처기업의 경영환경 수준은 벤처확인제도 혜택이나 벤처기업 역량 수준을 높이는 데는 긍정적인 영향을 주지만, 실질적인 경영성과로 이어지기는 어려운 것으로 확인되었다. 또한 벤처기업의 경영환경 수준과 경영성과 간 관계를 벤처기업 역량 수준이 매개하는 것으로 확인되었다. 결과적으로 단순히 벤처기업의 경영환경 수준이 긍정적이거나 벤처기업에 친화적일지라도 외부 환경으로부터의 지원을 잘 소화할 수 있는 내부 역량이 있는 기업이 경영성과를 높인다고 할 수 있다.

In the current rapidly changing environment, each country continues to make efforts to create jobs and strengthen technological competitiveness. In particular, support and revitalization policies for venture companies and start-ups are known to play a role in increasing national competitiveness. Companies should make appropriate replacements amid growing uncertainties in the environment in which business life is shortened and customer needs are diversified due to intensifying competition. First of all, it is important for companies to make efforts to strengthen their internal capabilities on their own. However, venture companies lack internal resources and capabilities, so support from the external environment is important enough to lead to the survival of the company(Timmons, 1994). Financial support and certification systems are being operated at the national level to strengthen the competitiveness of companies. However, financial support can lower a company's self-sustainability depending on the situation, so non-financial support such as R&D support and start-up education is considered to be helpful in the long term for venture growth(Aghion et al., 2012; Jeon & Ko, 2021). Non-financial support is divided into commercialization, facilities, space, childcare, manpower, and certification systems, and this study confirmed the benefits of the venture company confirmation system, which is a certification system. To this end, the 2021 venture company precision survey data and venture company sales data were used, and analyzed using the SPSS 26.0 package and SPSS PROCESS MACRO. As a result of the analysis, it was confirmed that the level of the management environment of venture companies has a positive effect on the benefits of the venture confirmation system or increasing the level of venture company capabilities, but it is difficult to lead to actual management performance. In addition, it was confirmed that the level of venture company competency mediates the relationship between the level of the venture company's business environment and management performance. As a result, even if the level of the venture company's business environment is positive or venture-friendly, it can be said that companies with internal capabilities to digest support from the external environment increase management performance.
