摘要:While prior research in the exporting literature has examined how governments use export support programs (ESPs) to strengthen small and medium enterprises' (SMEs') learning and linkage mechanisms for export competitiveness, the role of a newly emerging type of ESP-focused on enhancing production capabilities-remains underexplored. Drawing on compositional logic and the Leverage-Linkage-Learning (LLL) internationalization framework, this study conceptualizes a newly emerging Common Facility Ce...

摘要:Emerging-market multinational enterprises (EMNEs) are known for their asset-seeking strategies in foreign markets, often referred to as springboard strategies. While acquired assets strengthen EMNEs' competitive position at home, it is not yet clear whether they lead to international growth when orchestrated across the enterprise. To address this gap, we apply an asset orchestration lens to EMNEs' post-springboard international growth. Building on the EMNE-specific literature on light-touch in...

摘要:This paper explores the complex interplay between political systems, foreign direct investment (FDI), and income inequality. Building on Acemoglu and Robinson's Nobel Prize-winning work on institutions, we develop a framework to analyze governments' political incentives to attract FDI. We argue that highly entrenched autocracies, facing little internal competition for rents, and democracies with strong political competition, eager to secure growth for electoral advantage, exhibit strong incent...

摘要:Despite the increasing recognition of digital globalization in international business (IB) literature, there is a more pressing need for a comprehensive understanding of the unprecedented power generated by big-tech multinational enterprises (MNEs). This paper suggests that harnessing data ubiquity globally, instantaneously, and continuously represents a defining feature and a revolutionary power source for big-tech MNEs. By leveraging global data value chains through a mutually reinforcing da...

摘要:Industrial policy, the use of state power to influence the development of industries, has become increasingly influential in international business, yet its firm-level dynamics remain understudied. Through a history-to-theory approach and microhistorical analysis, we investigate how the Finnish shipbuilding industry employed nonmarket strategies (NMS) to influence outward-oriented industrial policies that supported its international expansion. Grounded in New Institutional Economics, we identi...

摘要:Global value chains (GVCs) generate efficiency through production fragmentation but simultaneously create sustainability vulnerabilities that can undermine GVC resilience. While MNE buyer-led private ordering and state regulation represent the primary governance responses to these risks, their effects on supplier compliance remain contested. We develop a domain-sensitive governance framework showing that labor and environmental compliance differ systematically in their cost-benefit structures,...

摘要:Social media has become a strategic tool for firms worldwide to drive customer engagement (CE) and enhance business performance, yet limited research has systematically examined how social media content strategies (SMCSs) perform across cultural contexts. To address this gap, we conceptualize SMCS along three key dimensions-content characteristics, content source, and content valence-and develop a meta-analytic model grounded in signaling theory. Drawing on 148 empirical studies comprising 869...

摘要:A firm cannot internationalize on its own. Rather, a network of multiple firms is critical. Accordingly, the Uppsala model has been reformulated in recent years to account for the role of networks in the firm internationalization process. Still unclear, however, is how a firm's network position evolves-both within individual foreign market entries and across successive entries-under changing firm, industry, and macro conditions. This study utilizes the historical case method to address this ga...
