“…Fourth, despite the interest in the role of export promotion agencies and programs on SMEs' internationalization (e.g., Dominguez, 2017;Haddoud, Jones, and Newbery, 2017;Wilkinson and Brouthers, 2006), little is known about their impact on successful rapid international growth.…”

This paper aims to explore the under-researched topic of post-entry speed of internationalization (PSI) in the context of international new ventures (INVs). We unbundle PSI and examine its relationship with both financial and non-financial export performance, considering three related, but conceptually distinct, dimensions of PSI: internationalization intensity, spread, and geographical diversity. Building on organizational learning theory, we highlight different mechanisms that contribute to post-entry performance outcomes among INVs. Our findings from a sample of 112 INVs in New Zealand provide evidence that the three dimensions of PSI are distinct and that they have different impacts on financial and nonfinancial export performance. This paper contributes to the limited, yet growing body of literature on PSI by providing a deeper understanding of PSI and its constituent dimensions. In addition, this study offers new theoretical insights into how and why different dimensions of post-entry speed of internationalization can contribute to stronger export performance.

“…First of all, our literature review showed that early internationalizing firms, including International New Ventures and Born Globals firms (Rennie ; Oviatt and McDougall ) have been overlooked in empirical studies on export support program effectiveness, as research has exclusively focused on firms that internationalize according to the Uppsala model (Johanson and Vahlne ). Most recent studies also neglect early internationalizers and focus more on some specific entry modes for SMEs in general (for instance, FDI for Bannò, Piscitello, and Varum (); equity modes for Dominguez ()). Nevertheless, qualitative studies have clearly shown that early internationalizers use these programs (Bell et al ; Ojala ).…”

This article evaluates the impact of public export support programs on the internationalization of early internationalizing small businesses. We build and test a conceptual model of the link between export support services and early internationalizing firms' relational capital and international performance in terms of both economic international performance and the number of foreign markets in which they are present. The results show that financial support is effective in enhancing firm performance only in terms of the number of foreign markets but not in terms of economic performance, that informational support is effective through its influence on relational capital, and that operational support is not. Our findings contrast with those of previous studies on firms that internationalize through stages and suggest that new export support services adapted to early internationalizing firms are needed.

“…In fact, "uncertainty" is wider while the risk is encompassed in uncertainty. According to [10], risks can be defined as an unplanned event that can have positive or negative impacts on the objectives of a project or business, while uncertainty alludes to events that lack complete certainty, implying that their outcomes are unknown, cannot be measured or estimated. In a study conducted by [11], risk is viewed as a predetermined chance of circumstances that pose a threat or conflict to any entity.…”

The focus on economic diversification has led to increased support for the establishment and development of SMEs by Omani government in order to contribute in GDP. Risk management has become a major challenge for SMEs in the country due to the lack of experience and knowledge. This research focuses on 'Risk Practical Management Strategies' adopted by SMEs to manage risk. The research is accomplished through a qualitative approach, gathered primary data through interviews and analyzed thematically to establish the trends and patterns in the data. The findings show that there is substantial awareness of the importance of risk management specially in financial and operational which are the key risks faced by businesses, coupled with reputational risk that is associated with the increased use of ecommerce. The RPMS are largely linked to training and developing awareness about risk among SMEs.
