Abstract

Chungnam Techno Park (CTP), established in 1999, is one of the first 6 technology parks in Korea. It became a hub of regional innovation system (RIS) within 10 years by the collaborative network of enterprises, universities, research institutes, governments and business service agencies in the Chungnam area. The professionals of these network groups work together to develop 4-step business incubation program, a new campus of technology park, 4 regional strategic industries for the Province, and technology park management system. The case of CTP clearly shows how science & technology park (STP) creates RIS and functions as a platform of RIS by the author who was the chief of the master planning group in 2000 and the CEO of CTP in 2007–2010.
