Abstract: International strategic alliances with Chinese operators often entail considerable risks and managerial difficulties associated with national culture and institutional differences, which can hinder the achievement of the intended strategic objectives. This study analyzes and evaluates the critical events perceived by seven of the most important textile and clothing companies in Southern Italy in their internationalization process towards the Chinese market. The explorative research, adopting a knowledge-based view, aims to analyze the way in which during the internationalization process critical incidents have been managed.
