When opening a wholly-owned subsidiary, firms can either establish local presence through greenfield investment or merger and acquisition. The aim of this paper is to make recommendations to Austrian companies that want to establish a wholly-owned subsidiary in Mexico. An empirical study in the form of qualitative semi-structured interviews was conducted in order to learn from the experiences of Austrian firms that have already taken the step into the Latin American nation. The size and the location of the Mexican market are the main motivation for Austrian companies to establish local presence; hence, Austrian investors can be defined as market-seekers. Also, the cost advantage is an important driver. Moreover, it is more common to build up the subsidiary from scratch. The ratio of greenfield investment to M&A is nine to one, simply because the value chains are not as developed yet in Mexico.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"103 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126007109","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, certain factors that affect the performance of women entrepreneurs vary from culture to culture. The present study is an effort to examine and highlight those factors that have significant impact on the performance of women entrepreneurs and their characteristics in SMEs. Data is collected from 307 women entrepreneurs with response rate of approximately 83% using survey questionnaires. Data analysis is conducted through SPSS21.0 and AMOS 22. Results show that economic, social, and legal and administrative factors significantly affect the performance of women entrepreneurs. The present study will help women entrepreneurs to get knowledge about factors that may affect their performance. This study may help the government to increase the number of women entrepreneurs and encourage them to play their role in sustainable growth of economy by removing their economic, social and legal obstacles.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"45 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-10-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"117083083","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The cases of four family firms operating in an emerging economy (Uruguay) are investigated. Semi-structured, face-to-face and telephone interviews were conducted with owners and managers, and complemented with e-mail correspondence. Based on the imperative need to solve problems in their industry, firms' managements were intensively involved in various innovative processes. These processes included quality improvements, responding to a dynamic and competitive business and consumer environment, and extending the life and survival of the family enterprise for future generations. Notably, the importance of sensing and learning in the form of identifying and assimilating key information, and seizing and applying such information to develop or adopt innovation, including new technologies, emerged strongly. The findings also highlight the usefulness of the DCF to understand firms' integration, and transformation of learning.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"11 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130153407","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This research addresses this gap in applying configuration theory and network perspectives in order to explain network relationship strength in foreign-owned subsidiaries located in the mid-range emerging economy of Taiwan. The data collected from a large-scale survey is analysed using fuzzy set qualitative comparative analysis method. The results show that there are a number of different solutions that can lead to increased network strength. These solutions, consisting of industrial, locational, and expatriate conditions also vary with the kind of networks. We hence find strong support for equifinality in MNE networks, local non-business networks and local business networks strength development.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"54 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"116772218","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study bridges two streams of literature from entrepreneurial values and entrepreneurial intentions for new venture creation in the context of 205 students from a Malaysian private university. Additionally, the adoption of theoretically sound, rigorously developed and psycho-metrically validated values and intention measurement instruments, as well as structural equation modelling technique, advances entrepreneurial intentions research in terms of theoretical sophistication and methodological rigour. Utilising a comprehensive values model to scrutinise the simultaneous influence of five individualistic values, the results revealed that only self-direction is a significant predictor of undergraduates' entrepreneurial intentions for new venture creation. The triangulation of findings from this study and other evidence suggests that self-direction is potentially a universal motivation for new venture creation. Consequently, to maximise results, entrepreneurship education programmes and trainings should target those undergraduates highly motivated by self-direction.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"90 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127042055","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A hybrid qualitative and quantitative methodology is employed to empirically discover the existence of diverse sub-cultural perspectives in Jamaica that cannot be predicted from coarse measures such as Hofstede's dimensions of national culture. A comparison to similar data from Canada serves to place these results in a broader research context. It is proposed that the relative strength and preponderance of these subcultures in the local environment act to bridge between Jamaican national culture and the individual cognitions and subjective norms that directly influence entrepreneurial intentions and actions. These subcultures are therefore significant to the design of policies and practices to affect national entrepreneurship rates in Jamaica.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"57 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-10-09","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"132518499","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study of the franchise relationships provides views of 124 UK franchisors. Validation interviews from eight academics, franchisors and practitioners validate the findings. It is concluded that franchisers endeavour to keep B2B relationship sustaining and flourishing which denotes the ultimate expression of hybrid relationships. The franchisor strategy on power greatly depends on franchisee behaviour and the exercise of the power by them may vary accordingly. Prevalence of conflicts between two partners negatively impacts the franchise system. Size and age of the franchise influences the use of power. Conflicts also trigger change in future plans of the franchisor. Hence the accruing strategy could be different and dynamic at each stage of the life cycle and varies based on business size.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"26 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"124352576","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In an effort to determine how this association is manifested among women entrepreneurs in developing economies (WEDE), the paper examines the existing literature, and provides the current state in how these women create and sustain their businesses. In order to analyse the effectiveness of EODs among WEDEs, a five-EOD model is examined through the findings from the extant literature. The examination of EODs and business performance indicators is done within the context of developing economies. The review of the literature has led to the identification of 'ethics' as an additional EOD associated with business performance. The emergence of a new EOD provides value towards understanding the different cultural settings within which women entrepreneurs operate, and demonstrates the multi-dimensional nature and value of entrepreneurship.","PeriodicalId":133038,"journal":{"name":"J. for International Business and Entrepreneurship Development","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-04-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129014575","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
