早期的国际化理论认为企业规模是影响企业国际化的关键因素。并认为企业的国际化过程是顺序的、渐进的。但是小企业的国际化参与。以及瞬间国际化、国际化新投机企业和天生全球化企业等新现象的出现使得传统的国际化理论的现实解释力极大地被削弱。最新的一些研究发现,将企业家理论引入到对小企业国际化过程的研究当中将能够比较好地对小企业国际化现象作出解释,因此。文章在对相关研宛进行回顾的基础上,借鉴其他研究领域的相关成果发展出一个新的小企业国际化过程概念模型。
The early internationalization theories tend to hold that company size is the key factor influencing the internationalization process of firms,and that firms'internationalization is an incremental and sequential process. But the successful cases in the recent years such as small firms'international involvement,instant internationalization,international new venture and born-global firms,greatly weaken the authority of the traditional internationalization theories. Some up-to-date researches find out that the phenomenon of small firms'internationalization can be interpreted well through importing insight from entrepreneur theories. Therefore, this paper,based on review of the relevant literatures and others theories, develops a new conceptual mode of small firms'internationalization.
