“…This is in line with the expected impact we had pointed out before, thus confirming H2. All the authors reviewed that tested this relation found similar results, with the exception of Kang (2016) who concluded that the relation was an inverted U shaped instead of linear.…”

“…Most of the studies summarized in table A1 concluded that agglomeration economies have a positive impact on export performance. There are however two studies (Brache and Felzensztein 2019;Kang (2016), for Chile) that have a different conclusion. Brache and Felzensztein (2019) concluded that localization economies have a negative impact on a firm's export performance while Kang (2016) concluded that the relationship between export spillovers and export performance, measured in this case by export propensity, has an inverted U shape, meaning that after a degree of local export spillovers the effect on export performance tends to be negative.…”

It is important to note that the studies use different measures of export performance: Kang (2016) analyzes the probability of a firm to export while Brache and Felzensztein (2019) measure the impact of localization economies on a firm's export intensity; that is, one focuses on the decision to export and the other on what happens after the exporting venture has begun.…”

Export performance is a highly debated topic in the literature, with no consensus on how to measure it or what factors determine it. Most studies divide these factors into internal and external determinants, with a focus on internal determinants. This study, however, focuses on external determinants, namely agglomeration economies such as localization and urbanization economies and export spillovers, and their impact on a firm’s export intensity. Based on a large sample of Portuguese manufacturing SMEs over the period 2010 to 2018 (191,920 firm/year observations), the estimation results through the two-stage least squares method with fixed effects strongly indicate the existence of a positive relationship between agglomeration economies, particularly localization economies and export spillovers, and export performance. These findings suggest that firms located in areas with a high concentration of other firms in the same industry and other exporting firms tend to have better export performance, which has important implications for policymakers.

“…One stream of research is to select markets based on export experience. Scholars have generally suggested that enterprises have a path dependence in the choice of new export markets (21)(22)(23)(24). The main point of this view is that enterprises are more inclined to enter new markets similar to existing export markets.…”

Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) swept across the world and posed a serious threat to human health. Health and elderly care enterprises are committed to continuously improving people's health. With the rapid development of the digital economy, many enterprises have established digital product-service ecosystems after combining “Internet +,” big data, cloud computing, and the big health industry. This paper uses the case study method to analyze the overseas market value mining mode of health and elderly care enterprises through in-depth research on leading health and elderly care enterprises. This study explores the value mining mode of the leading enterprise's global big health market using a cluster analysis and Bayesian model with the support of data on geographical characteristics, users' sleep habits, and national big health. This paper theoretically summarizes the successful cases of health and elderly care enterprises through digital transformation, which provides a useful reference for the intelligent transformation of the health and elderly care industry.
