Following the efficiency logic that argues process quality management provides an important basis for firms’ internal controls over their innovation activities, this study which is set within emerging markets extends the literature by shedding light upon an interesting phenomenon: employing...

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...

In this study, we integrate resource dependence theory and agencytheory to argue that state ownership has a dual (inducement and constraint) effect onemerging market firms’ export performance. Building on this inducement-constraintframework, we hypothesize a non-linear relationship between...

We examine how host-country institutional development influences innovation performance of internationalized emerging market enterprises (EMEs). Our panel-data analysis of Chinese EMEs shows that although host-country institutional development on average enhances innovation performance of the...

This research examines the roles of government policies within the national innovation system (NIS) in promoting effective social entrepreneurial action and enhancing economic growth in rural sectors. We investigate government's role in promoting effective social entrepreneurial action within...

Although prior research conceptualizes how knowledge-seeking motivates the internationalization of emerging-market enterprises (EMEs), whether outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) indeed leads to enhanced innovation performance has received limited attention. We address this subject by...

This study proposes a moderated mediating framework to describe the relationships among international diversification, technological capability, market orientation and emerging market multinational enterprises' new product performance. Within this framework, emerging market multinational...

This study examines the competitive dynamics between foreign and local firms. We posit that multinational enterprises(MNEs)’s entry in foreign markets significantly reduces the survival rate of local firms in the short term, but that this effect gradually diminishes over time. The proposed...

In this study, we challenge the conventional understanding of ambidexterity as an unquestionable contribution to better performance. We combine the concept of ambidexterity and the notion of managerial capability to explore different effects of ambidexterity on innovation performance in the...

Can domestic political capital be transferable to more or less similar institutional contexts abroad? Motivated by contradictory results in two streams of research, this study seeks to combine the insights from two theoretical arguments and conceptualize the role of domestic political ties in...
