“…Cultural distances often prevent organizations from transferring experience (Dong et al, 2019;Nadolska and Barkema, 2014). For example, top managers of Chinese companies often lack confidence because they regularly encounter the liabilities of foreignness (Alkire and Meschi, 2018). Thus, cultural distance is an external learning barrier, but it has internal learning effects in inhibiting the transfer of experiential learning.…”

PurposeIn a contribution to the emerging research examining Chinese cross-border acquisitions (CBAs), the authors observe experiential learning applications for enhancing M&A completions. By emphasizing knowledge transfer, the authors reveal how target-to-target industry similarity and bidder-to-target cultural distance affect learning outcomes.Design/methodology/approachUsing a binary logistic regression model, the authors examine a sample of CBA attempts announced by Chinese companies from January 2002 to December 2012 to identify the variables that affect the completion of CBAs.FindingsThe authors find that foreign acquisition experience but not domestic acquisition experience enhances subsequent acquisition attempts, especially when prior and focal target companies share the dominant industrial logic. Learning transfer is negatively affected when target countries are more culturally distant from China, but learning benefits appear to increase under strong bidder-to-target cultural distance.Originality/valueBy investigating learning in the precompletion stage in Chinese outward CBAs, the authors complement research that uses postacquisition performance to assess learning. The authors’ more fine-grained characterization reveals that acquisition experience increases knowledge transfer through experiential learning. Furthermore, the authors show that dominant industrial logic and cultural distance are underexplored contextual conditions, although they interact with foreign and domestic experience to affect the completion of CBAs.

Some papers also specifically distinguish between the concepts of merge and acquisition, for example, stating that merger and acquisition both are different from each other [14]. Examine the outbound merger and acquisition of selected Oil and Gas Companies.…”

“…Growth in entrepreneurial ventures in these countries has attracted the attention of firms targeting businesses for their products. At the same time, these business environments are perceived to be having a high level of corruption, a less developed market mechanism, and a combination of strong government intervention with inadequate legal and regulatory controls (Alkire & Meschi, 2018). Consequently, firms from such emerging economies have to overcome LOF resulting from such negative bias and perceptions of their institutions when doing business in the international market.…”

This multidisciplinary paper examines the sustainability of supply chain partners from a foreignness perspective. The arguments draw from the research on institutional theory to explain the underlying mechanisms. We propose and discuss a comprehensive conceptual framework evaluating the relationships of foreignness to economic, social, and environmental sustainability. In addition, we consider contingent factors such as the level of development of supplier's nation, level of global integration of buyer, and type of industry, on sustainable development of focal firms. The direct and contingency frameworks introduced in this paper are presented along with research propositions that provide valuable insight into the sustainable supply chain management from the international business perspective.
