作为国际商务研究与创业研究融合的一个新兴领域,对于国际新企业的研究已引起越来越多研究者的关注。但已有研究大多集中在发达国家。本文通过对浙江四家国际新企业进行探索性案例研究发现,由于环境和产业类型的差异,现有文献对于国际新企业成立的动机因素的研究结论不能完全运用于案例企业。笔者认为,国际新企业形成的主要影响因素包括企业生存的需要、企业家的先前经历和本地网络关系、产业的国际化程度、国内市场和政策环境等。
More and more researchers are focusing on the study of INVs, which is an emerging field of intersection of international business and entrepreneurship. But research on factors leading to the formation of INVs is limited to firms from developed countries. This paper conducted an exploratory, multiple-case study of INVs in Zhejiang, China. We find that motivators in the literature cannot be applied to our cases for variation in environment and industry type. We think the major drivers to the formation of INVs are the needs of survival, former experiences and local networks of entrepreneurs, degree of internationalization of the industry, and domestic market and policy.
