Definition of International Business.
International Business (IB) is a new phenomenon that has been brought to the fore by
changes in global activities.
These changes have brought new opportunities as well as challenges to socio-
economic environment in the business world.
International Business has been researched and defined in many ways by different
authors and we shall look in some of these definitions.

and people across the globe according to Knight (2014).
In other definition, Luo and Shenkar (2008), argues that International Business is not
ethnocentric as postulated by other authors.
Ghemawat (2008) in his journal illustrated that, international business is today`s trade/

aspects of the business world.
