This study attempted to examine the impact of Entrepreneurship and Technology Innovation on management and employment performance in our society, where digital transactions are rapidly progressing through non-face-to-face trades after the pandemic caused by COVID-19. As a result of a study of small and medium-sized enterprises in Busan and Gyeongnam, it is found that initiative and risk sensitivity, which are sub-variables of Entrepreneurship, had a positive effect on technology innovation. Also, that technology innovation has a positive (+) effect on management and employment performance. Entrepreneurship is confirmed to have a positive effect on management performance, and enterprising-spirit and risk-taking showed a positive influence on employment performance. However, innovation was rejected. In addition, it is found that there was a mediating effect of technology innovation between Entrepreneurship and management and employment performance. As the transition to a smart hyper-connected society is expected after the 4th Industrial Revolution and the Pendemic, Entrepreneurship and Technology Innovation are emerging as important factors to increase management and employment performance. his study suggests the need for national support to strengthen entrepreneurship and technology innovation to explore new opportunities and promote management and employment in the COVID-19 pandemic crisis, and policy implications accordingly.
