“…As a result of the rapidly changing global economic situation, the internationalization of Chinese companies is also facing many difficulties, and multinational companies have begun to establish a networked growth system. Global Production Networks (GPNs) have become one of the driving factors influencing the growth of enterprises (Adomako, 2023). The establishment of GPNs creates more possibilities for enterprises to deeply participate in the international division of labour.…”

With the contraction of the global economy and the multiple impacts of the epidemic on the world economy, Chinese enterprises are facing a changing international environment and adapting to a different kind of globalization. China insists on the strategy of both "Bringing in" and "Going abroad", and seeks the road of Internationalization through high-level two-way investment and efficient use of global resources and market space. On the topic of Internationalization of Chinese enterprises, many scholars have conducted many fruitful researches and accumulated many research results. This paper searches and collates relevant literature at national and abroad, and constructs a theoretical model of Chinese enterprises' internationalization , that includes three dimensions: influencing factors, entry modes and influencing effects. By reading the relevant literature in these three areas, we find some results, firstly the process of internationalization of firms is influenced by both internal and external factors; internal factors include the diversity of the executive team and the need for firms to innovate, and external factors include government subsidies, the active promotion of global production networks, the passive promotion of industry-specific needs and the need to expand markets. The second internationalization path includes the export access model, the contract access model, and the investment access model. Thirdly the impact effects of firm internationalization include the level of business growth, the level of research and development innovation and the level of dynamic capacity building.

“…The passive factors are no more than two, the demand for industry specificity and the hard demand for market expansion (Adomako, 2023). Some high-tech enterprises, unable to achieve selfsufficiency in all materials, then it is inevitable to internationalize.…”

PurposeThis study examines the influence of organizational culture types, specifically clan, adhocracy, hierarchy and market culture, on innovative capability and a firm’s international growth orientation within Brazil’s wine industry.Design/methodology/approachThe paper builds on empirical evidence gathered from responses of managers from 230 Brazilian winemaking organizations based on a self-administered survey. The hypotheses in the conceptual model are tested using Smart-PLS (partial least square).FindingsThe types of culture that showed a positive relationship with dynamic innovation capability were clan, adhocracy, and market. Regarding the orientation for international growth, the market culture is the most conducive. Clan culture is not ideal for internationalization, and both adhocracy and hierarchical cultures showed no relationship. It was found that dynamic innovation capability has a positive relationship with the orientation for international growth.Practical implicationsThe study broadens the research perspectives for analyzing resources from the Brazilian wine industry, further examining their linkage with the orientation for the international growth of the segment. The findings provide managers with insights about which types of culture should be fostered when aiming to innovate and internationalize.Social implicationsThe advancements are related to the Sustainable Development Goals advocated by the United Nations.Originality/valueThe study is motivated by the lack of integrated methodologies that relate organizational culture, dynamic innovation capability and orientation for international growth. International business research has neglected to specify which particular resources a company needs to have a propensity for international growth orientation.

Purpose Inspired by the internationalisation paths to prosperity of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs), where narcissistic leaders are diligent about organisations but also pursue their dark goals, this study aims to concurrently examine two avenues for the internationalisation of narcissistic leaders in SMEs concerning the function of team organisational citizenship behaviours (OCB): corporate social irresponsibility (CSI) and digital business model innovation (BMI). Design/methodology/approach This study utilised a quantitative design emphasising mature theory research, and data was analysed using multiple regression analysis and Hayes' process model. The data for this study was collected via surveys from 270 SMEs in Vietnam. Findings The study showed that narcissistic Chief Executive Officers (CEOs) can penetrate the global market profoundly by utilising both the righteous path, which is based on the power of the times via BMI, and the unethical path, CSI. However, team devotion via OCB can mitigate the unethical conduct of narcissistic CEOs. Practical implications The study endeavoured to find a path to internationalisation for SMEs in emerging markets with high economic openness and increasingly close connections with international markets, via two strategies for SMEs to conquer the international market more successfully, and with utilising the foundations of CEO narcissism and team citizenship behaviour. Originality/value This study contributed to the theory of SME internationalisation by employing the resource-based view and upper-echelon theory, with the updated Uppsala model as its foundation.
