摘要：This paper examines the benefits of syndicating with foreign venture capital (VC) firms for domestic VC firms in emerging markets. We find that the VC firms that are domestic to their invested companies and previously syndicated with foreign partners invest proportionately more frequently in riskier ventures. After gaining syndication experience with foreign VC firms, a larger number of their portfolio companies are successfully exited, thereby suggesting improved performance. We hypothesize t...

摘要：According to the conventional view of MNE-host country relations, MNEs faced with political risk condition their strategic responses on each party's relative power positions - or bargaining influence. Drawing insight from network theory, institutional theory, and international relations research, I argue that firm sensitivity to political risk is contingent upon a complementary concept: social influence. Social influence arises through the mutual embeddedness of MNE and host government in a co...

摘要：Cultural industries - systems of organizations that produce and distribute cultural goods with substantive symbolic, aesthetic, or artistic value - represent an important, exciting, and complex context that receives growing scholarly attention. As the first review of management research on cultural industries, this paper aims to provide a systematic synthesis of current research, summarizing distinctive characteristics of cultural industries and highlighting research gaps. We also illustrate h...

摘要：We investigate the role of high distance in trust erosion between small partners. High distance is known to hinder the formation of trust between potential partners, but its role in trust erosion in established partnerships is less understood by international business scholars. Through a qualitative longitudinal study, we extend current theory of how high distance affects the trust dynamics between cross-border partners. Specifically, we unearth three interrelated mechanisms that together expl...

摘要：Whereas IB has extensively studied MNEs' generic (positive) impact on host economies, but rarely on employee wages, economics research has only shown an overall MNE wage premium. We 'unravel' this premium, considering multiple levels of analysis and accounting for host-country contextual contingencies, to unveil MNEs different (positive or negative) distributional effects. Using unique micro-level data from over 40,000 employees in 13 countries, we examine MNEs' distributional effects for empl...

摘要：International business (IB) research is designed to explore and explain the inherent complexity of international business, which arises from the multiplicity of entities, multiplexity of interactions, and dynamism of the global economic system. To analyze this complexity, IB scholars have developed four research lenses: difference, distance, diversity, and disparity. These four lenses on complexity have created not only unique research opportunities for IB scholarship but also unique research ...

摘要：Understanding the antecedents to, and consequences of, a firm's degree of internationalization is integral to international business research. In order to be accepted by scholars, empirical research that tests hypotheses regarding drivers and/or consequences of firm internationalization needs to use a valid measure of firm internationalization. In this paper, we develop a new measure, the ratio of international market shares (RIMS); RIMS measures a firm's degree of conformance to the theoretic...

摘要：A multinational enterprise develops its subsidiary portfolio by investing in new foreign markets and subsequently pursuing further investments within these host countries. We find that firms which locate their first equity investment closer to the national capital city can subsequently expand their subsidiary portfolio within the host country at a higher speed. This effect is particularly strong in emerging economies. Further analyses of various contingencies support the robustness of our find...

摘要：Transformational leadership is commonly assumed to facilitate employee innovation in all cultures. Drawing upon field studies from 17 countries, this meta-analysis revealed that supervisor transformational leadership is positively related to individual- and team-level innovation regardless of national boundaries. However, the relationship trended somewhat more strongly in countries with higher levels of uncertainty avoidance. These findings suggest that employee innovation in most countries ca...

摘要：Our study reveals the financial performance implications of the speed at which Chinese multinational enterprises (CMNEs) expand into intra-regional versus inter-regional host countries. In doing so, we propose a framework that integrates internationalization speed and home regionalization literatures. Using data from 767 publicly listed CMNEs from the years 2002 to 2014, we discover that the faster the intra-regional internationalization, the better the firm's financial performance, whereas fa...
