The book points out the benefits and pitfalls of doing business in emerging and developing countries, as well as the adjustments that are necessary for success. It also discusses entrepreneurship in emerging and developing countries, exploring its new realities from women’s entrepreneurship in Muslim countries to social entrepreneurship in developing countries. The volume also points out the new challenges for SMEs of emerging and developing countries in a global competitive environment. Finally, it analyses corporate governance from a local partner perspective and an institutional perspective. Building Businesses in Emerging and Developing Countries will be of interest to business managers, students and researchers involved in international entrepreneurship and corporate governance.

This book was released on 2008 with total page 793 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is an important contribution to the field of international entrepreneurship. . . it provides a comprehensive account of internationalization strategies adopted by SMEs in a wide range of European countries, and by drawing on a number of empirical studies, it enriches the theory of SME internationalization with a new theoretical framework that can be useful for understanding the complexity of SME internationalization processes in Europe. Julia Korosteleva, Thunderbird International Business Review From Andorra to Wales with stops in more than 35 other European countries along the way, this comprehensive collection of articles is required reading for scholars interested in international entrepreneurship. It provides information on how entrepreneurs and their firms go international from virtually every country in Europe. This unique volume permits researchers to compare how the process of entrepreneurial internationalization is affected by differences in culture, location, technology, and other influences within Europe. Furthermore, the various authors consider a range of theoretically important issues, such as cooperation and trust, venture capital, research and development, learning, networks, and government policy. This book serves as an essential departure point from which scholars can embark on their study of international entrepreneurship in Europe. Benjamin M. Oviatt, Georgia State University, US This is a timely and interesting book that brings together some of the most insightful contributions on the internationalization of new ventures, with an emphasis on the European experiences. Assembling some of the best scholars, the book offers a distinctively European perspective one that deserves recognition, analysis, and discussion. I applaud the editors for doing such a masterful job in bringing a great group of researchers and ideas together. I highly recommend this book for any serious researcher and scholar. Shaker A. Zahra, University of Minnesota, US This remarkable book provides valuable contributions on how the process of SMEs internationalization is operating in 37 different European countries. Researchers in international entrepreneurship will find new materials for theorization. Numerous facets of international business are carefully documented by a great many well-known scholars. Also, given the variety of situations typical of the European small business sector, the book may prove to be helpful to small-scale entrepreneurs wishing to take steps towards internationalization. Overall, this coordinate work makes you realize why Europe is so fascinating. Jean-Jacques Obrecht, University Robert Schuman, Strasbourg, France This unique comparative study of the internationalization of small firms is a milestone in international business research. It compares the internationalization strategies of fast-growing firms across nearly forty different European countries. It shows that the growth trajectories of firms reflect the investing country s geographical location, natural resource endowments, legal and financial institutions and local culture. There are many important new insights to be gained from a careful study of this important new research resource. Mark Casson, University of Reading, UK This unique Handbook illustrates how entrepreneurs across Europe tackle internationalization. This timely and important book identifies patterns and builds a theory of international entrepreneurship in Europe. The contributors discuss the performances of SMEs on the road to internationalization. Each chapter emphasizes how the process of internationalization of SMEs operates, the challenges and opportunities that arise due to each country s specific political and economic situation, and their subsequent internationalization performance. These processes, challenges and performances can be understood through theories of international business and entrepreneurship. Although at times these theories cannot fully

This book was released on 2020-04-06 with total page 657 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book brings together papers presented at the 3rd Conference of Research in Economics and Management (CIREG) held in Morocco in May 2016. With a focus on the challenges of SMEs and innovative solutions, they highlight the contribution of researchers in the fields of business and management, with all their micro and macro-economic aspects. They shed light on the universal scientific vision of the importance of SMEs with answers relevant to their local context and adapted to their specific national situation. The relevance of SME research lies in its heuristic value of analyzing change, rather than in constructing a category, a particularly useful empirical concept. This third volume is focused on marketing and human resources.
Download or read book Regional Competitiveness written by Ron Martin and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 177 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is now a wide spread interest in regions as a key focus in the organization and governance of economic growth and wealth creation. This important book considers the factors that influence and shape the competitive performance of regions. This is not just an issue of academic interest and debate, but also of increasing policy deliberation and action. However, as the readings in this book make clear, the very idea of regional competitiveness is itself complex and contentious. Many academics and policy makers have used the concept without fully considering what is meant by the term and how it can be measured. Policy formulation has tended to rush ahead of understanding and analysis, and the purpose of this book is to close this important gap in understanding. This book was previously published as a special issue of Regional Studies.
Download or read book Mondialisation exclusion et d veloppement africain Investissement priv r le des PME et action de l tat written by Bruno Bekolo-Ebe and published by . This book was released on 2006 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Le CEREG a proposé, au mois de février 2003, un premier recueil de textes du Colloque Georges Ngango sous la forme de Mélanges publiés aux Editions Montchrestien (Paris), intitulés Dynamiques de développement : débats théoriques et enjeux politiques à l'aube du 21ème siècle, sous la direction de Bruno Bekolo-Ebe, Touna Mama et Séraphin Magloire Fouda. Les contributions retenues dans cet ouvrage examinaient alors l'apport du Professeur Georges Walter Ngango à l'économie du développement, revisitaient un certain nombre de thèmes qui lui étaient chers et / ou resituaient son action d'homme politique et d'économiste catholique, humaniste engagé, dans la problématique générale du développement. La richesse et la diversité des contributions et des échanges lors du colloque de février 2001 ont été telles que justice n'aurait pas été faite aux participants, en laissant de côté des communications intéressantes et pertinentes qui ont contribué à animer les débats pendant les trois jours qu'a duré le Colloque. Le CEREG est ainsi heureux de poursuivre l'aventure à travers la publication d'un deuxième ouvrage collectif en deux tomes qui, bien que n'étant pas des Mélanges au sens strict du terme, n'en comporte pas moins les caractéristiques qui sont ici la pluridisciplinarité, la variété géographique des contributeurs, l'hommage des disciples au maître. Les contributions retenues sont ici proposées sous le titre Mondialisation, exclusion et développement africain : stratégies des acteurs publics et privés. Ce titre prend en compte les principales préoccupations du Professeur Georges Walter Ngango au cours des années qui ont précédé sa disparition i.e., la place et le rôle de l'Afrique dans la mondialisation, les voies pour le continent d'en tirer quelque bénéfice pour un développement durable, et, enfin, les menaces d'exclusion susceptibles d'entraîner la marginalisation non seulement des individus, mais aussi des Etats. En filigrane de ces préoccupations, se retrouvent une analyse des conséquences des réformes économiques et l'examen des sources de la croissance, en général, et de l'investissement, en particulier, qu'il soit le fait des acteurs publics ou des acteurs privés.
Download or read book Les PME Dans Les Soci t s Contemporaines de 1880 Nos Jours written by Sylvie Guillaume and published by Peter Lang. This book was released on 2008 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: L'ouvrage a pour objet l'étude d'un objet mal identifié, la PME, dans l'espace européen et sur le long terme. Qu'est-ce qu'une PME ? Les PME existent-elles ? Ces questions débouchent sur de profondes divergences qui soulignent l'extrême hétérogénéité du groupe et qui affaiblissent l'utilité opérationnelle du concept. L'ambiguïté du concept est d'autant plus problématique que les PME sont au coeur d'un très grand nombre d'enjeux tant dans le domaine économique que dans le domaine social et politique. Les PME sont-elles un facteur de freinage de l'économie ou une force d'entraînement ? Un lieu d'épanouissement humain ou un espace d'exploitation de la force de travail ? Le foyer d'une culture de la concurrence ou celui d'une culture corporatiste ? Le support des traditions démocratiques ou celui des dérives autoritaires ? C'est à ces questions que l'ouvrage tente de répondre, en s'inscrivant dans une démarche pluridisciplinaire et comparatiste.

Download or read book La Cor e Le Peuple Et Ses Valeurs Culturelles written by Seong-sook Yim and published by PUM. This book was released on 2000 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: La Corée possède une civilisation millénaire, une population s'élevant à deux fois et demie celle du Canada, mais occupe un territoire équivalant à seulement un vingtième de celui de la France, incrusté entre la Chine et le Japon. Onzième puissance économique du monde moderne, créée en moins de 50 ans sur les ruines et les cendres de la guerre, la Corée demeure cependant un pays encore divisé en deux entités politiques, le Nord et le Sud, le communisme et le capitalisme, le totalitarisme et la démocratie. Riche d'une longue tradition culturelle, le peuple coréen, étroitement lié tout au long de son histoire aux grands événements qui ont façonné le visage de l'Asie de l'Est, gagne à être connu à ce moment précis de son histoire, car, dans la perspective d'un rapprochement des deux Corées, s'ouvre pour lui l'aube d'une ère nouvelle. Les textes rassemblés dans ce livre proposent de fines analyses de divers aspects de la Corée, tels que l'aménagement urbain à Séoul, les réformes financières conséquentes à la crise, ainsi que le sort des prisonniers de guerre sud-coréens encore retenus au Nord, sans oublier la littérature et les mouvements populaires.
