초록

Recently the korean healthcare industry has been growing rapidly due to ageing population and its ever-growingconcern about well-being. The global competitiveness of korean medical device industry is however relativelymediocre compared to that of other domestic industries. To remedy such an undesirable situation, the koreangovernment has supported, since 2010, the project of establishing intermediator platforms which collect viableideas from the medical care providers, develop working mock-ups or prototypes from these ideas and licensethese technologies out to the manufacturers who want to commercialize them. The purpose of this study is toanalyze the risks which can cause the failure of such an open-innovation-based idea realization platform andderive some useful guidelines for their effective management. More precisely, we analyze the objectives of theplatform, identify typical sources of failure that make the fulfillment of these objectives difficult, and select andevaluate major risk factors which contribute to each failure source. The analysis is based on the results of thestructured interview with the supervising director of the idea realization center, the one first started in 2010, andthe results of the questionnaire survey conducted on the experts who participated in several parts of the idearealization process in that organization. The results show that ‘a weak network among idea sources’ and ‘aninappropriate compensation system for realized ideas’ are the most important risk factors, together with ‘aninsufficient development capacity’ and ‘the risk of failure to find interested buyers for the secured technologyrights’. Thorough understanding of those risk factors and appropriate decisions on the response measures, andtheir continuous monitoring, would be essential part of risk management for an open-innovation-based medicaldevice idea realization platform.
