AB - This study compares the performance efficiency of government startup support programs across Korea’s 17 metropolitan cities and provinces, focusing on Daejeon. It links 2022 budgets to 2023 outcomes and 2023 budgets to 2024 outcomes. Stage 1 converts budgets into supported and certified venture firms, while Stage 2 converts the firm base into employment and sales. Output-oriented BCC DEA was complemented by CCR, scale-efficiency, relational CCR, and reduced-model analyses. Stage 1 was the main nationwide bottleneck. In Daejeon, Stage 1 efficiency rose from 0.3173(13th) to 0.9409(4th), Stage 2 from 0.7566(12th) to 0.8466(9th), and the composite index from 0.2400(14th) to 0.7965(3rd). However, Stage 1 scale efficiency remained low in the second period, and Stage 2 results were sensitive to intermediate-variable specification. These estimates indicate relative, not causal, effects. Daejeon should manage program scale and strengthen market-access, investment, and scale-up support.
