International growth in born globals – continued growth through networking on institutionally distant markets

Svante Andersson and Gabriel Baffour Awuah

Chapter 5 in Handbook on International Alliance and Network Research, 2015, pp 139-154 from Edward Elgar Publishing

Abstract: The aim of this chapter is to shed light on how a born global can obtain continued growth internationally, in institutionally distant markets. We are seeking a deeper understanding of international growth for born global enterprises by combining theories of networks and institutional perspective. We discuss how institutional distance affects the internationalization processes in born globals. We seek to highlight why and how a born global firm enters different markets. In this respect, born globals from developed countries and those from emerging markets are compared, leading us to derive some propositions from our discussions. Finally some suggestions for future research are presented.
