Post–Entry Speed of International New Ventures
构建了一个基于学习的模型,研究国际新创企业在进入国际市场后的扩张速度,包括国家范围速度和国际承诺速度,并分析了社会资本和吸收能力对学习速度的影响。
We conceptualize a learning–based model of international new ventures (INVs)’ post–entry internationalization speed focusing upon two measures: country scope speed and international commitment speed. We contribute to a deeper understanding of the pace of international expansion of the new venture once it has become an INV by articulating the role of (1) the speed of learning, influenced by social capital and absorptive capacity, and (2) the content of learning represented by knowledge accumulation. We also offer a more refined perspective on organizational learning, which indicates that different stages in the process of exploitative learning require different forms of social capital.
