Policy support for the promotion of the CG industry in Korea – focusing on evaluation of importance and priority

Abstract

ABSTRACT As the COVID-19 pandemic continues, online-based business models are growing rapidly, and the demand for computer graphic (CG) technology is increasing. To boost the invigoration of the CG industry through effective support, it is necessary to understand the factors to be considered in the domestic CG industry. Accordingly, this study developed evaluation indicators to be considered for the invigoration of this industry and weighed them using AHP analysis. Specifically, a draft was created based on literature review and expert consultation, and the indicators were determined using the two-time Delphi method. The three evaluation areas of research and development, cultivation of talented people, and fostering the industry include a total of 15 evaluation indicators. The AHP results showed that ‘fostering the industry’ was the most important one among the main factors, and ‘fostering converged and combined workforce’ was the most important one among the detailed factors. The content and results of this study are expected to be used as basic data to preferentially refer to when planning and supporting policies for the invigoration of the CG industry are established with the industry, academia, and research collaboration.
