This policy research suggested performance objectives and management tasks of the Korean Intellectual Property Office(KIPO, hereafter in the KIPO) attributed by the changing policy environments. And this study revealed some policy priorities in the KIPO, in which they must be linked to the national intellectual property projects. At first, this study reviewed and analyzed the changed performance management and its implementing plans from the year of 2007 to 2018. Also this research did a comparative approach on the second national intellectual property project, the 2018 project, and the intellectual property policy in the 4th industrial revolution, the 2018 KIPO administration planning, the 218 performance objectives definition books, and performance management and planning of both the Ministry of SMEs and Startups and the Ministry of Science and ICT. Following these document analysis and examination, this study surveyed on the KIPO’s performance management system and strategy during Moon Jai In’s ruling government by mailing questionnaires to two groups of expert delphi cohort(response rate was 62.1%) and policy beneficiary of the KIPO’s program and administration(response rate was 83.1%) in the period of August to September of this year(2018). Based on these analyses and reviewing documents, and the survey study, this policy research enunciated five policy suggestions and ideas to the KIPO’s program performance and its management objectives as follows: First, the performance management objectives and strategies between 2016 and 2018 have largely changed compared to the stable years of 2007 to 2015. The first factor to the changed performance evaluation system was to the Korean government reform and the creation of the ministry organization of SMEs and Startups since the beginning of Moon Jai In’s administration in 2017. In particular, the KIPO’s performance programs must be linked to the national policy agendas of his government and the changed level of the KIPO’s administrative cabinet by the creation the Ministry of SMEs and Startups. Second, as the research results of the survey on the expert delphi cohorts and policy beneficiary groups, the priority programs in the category of master plan of the national intellectual property can be collated to the facilitation of workable intellectual property and technology transfer, protection system for the intellectual property issued from the emerging new technology and industry. In contrast, the policy beneficiary groups responded to the survey that the program performance priorities were in order of the reinforcement of support of intellectual protection programs for the industrial technology and ideas in SMEs. Third, as of suggestion to the performance objectives and management strategies by changing policy environments from the inauguration of Moon’s government in 2017, this research figured that the program performance of the KIPO must turn to job creations in the labor markets, leading role of the business creations, and responsibility and transparency of the data management of intellectual property in the high-value added of the creations of the standard patent and its administration. Fourth, as of summarizing the KIPO’s performance objectives and management strategy attributed by the changing policy environments from the inauguration of Moon’s administration, this policy-oriented research strongly reported to the KIPO as ten performance objectives, such as improvement of patent’s reliability and security, national support of R&D in the 4th industrial revolution, strengthening application of standard patent strategy into the R&D in new technology sectors, reformulation of intellectual property protection system with the advent of new technology and industry, protection of intellectual property of SMEs and venture business, support of innovative creations of intellectual property business, etc. Fifth and finally, Moon’s government has repeatedly put political and policy rhetoric and keynotes to the job creations in both public and private sectors, thus the KIPO’s program management and performance strategy must meet the labor market policy objectives for widening job creation efforts and activities, in which the patent and its applications into industry and business need to achieve the job-markets goals. As for examples, its policy program can be developed by redistributions of the professional human resources in departments of intellectual property in both central and provisional administrations as well as in public research institutes
