About

Hosung Kim’s research lies at the intersection of innovation economics and industrial engineering, with a primary focus on how emerging technologies shape the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). His most influential work, “Does the adoption of emerging technologies improve technical efficiency? Evidence from Korean manufacturing SMEs” (2021), has garnered 69 citations, establishing him as a key voice in technology adoption and productivity analysis. This study provides critical insights into how digital tools and advanced manufacturing technologies can enhance operational efficiency in resource-constrained firms. Earlier in his career, Kim explored wireless power transfer systems for mobile robots, contributing to the fields of robotics and aerospace by addressing weight reduction and mobility challenges. Though less cited, this work reflects his early interest in practical engineering solutions for autonomous systems. Kim’s research is particularly valuable for students and policymakers seeking to understand the real-world impacts of technological change on industrial competitiveness. His ability to bridge empirical economic analysis with engineering applications makes his work both rigorous and relevant for contemporary manufacturing challenges.
