,INITIATION OF INTERNATIONALIZATION
Whether and when to internationalize?
In pre-internationalization
stages, SME managers use
information to achieve
enough relevant knowledge
to initiate internationalization.
This figure illustrates the
different stages
International expansion
INTERNATIONALIZATION
Why do firms internationalize?
- In the end, it is always about growth and profits
How so? Seek markets
- Literature on internationalization often assumes that sales-oriented objectives are the
most relevant
- The primary motive for starting activities in a foreign country is frequently the access
to new markets and the sales potential offered by foreign markets
But
- More firms import than export, on average
- (but not in all countries, regions, industries? See further)
, SMEs in Europe: Export
In Belgium the % of SMEs that
export is 24% (1/4 is thus
internationally active)
The smaller the country you are
based in, the more likely you will
internationalize
SMEs in Europe: Import
More countries import than export. In
Belgium the % of SMEs with import
is 45%
Reasons
- Components are cheaper
abroad
- Better quality
- Availability
Why do firms internationalize?
- Foreign activities can also be taken up with the objective of giving the firm access to
relevant resources (resource seeking)
o Such as natural resources (like agricultural produce, raw materials, ...),
o But also to parts and components from foreign suppliers,
o Low cost labour
è Efficiency seeking = companies go abroad to lower the costs associated with
performing economic activities
o And high skilled labour and knowledge (technology)
è Strategic asset seeking for R&D and innovation = companies go abroad to
obtain strategic assets (tangible or intangible)
Two main motivations that you internationalize
- Market seeking = companies go abroad to find new customers
- Resource seeking = companies go abroad to access resources that are not readily
available at home or can be obtained at a lower cost abroad
