For entrepreneurial firms (EFs), internationalization and innovation present two major avenues for growth. Prior research, based primarily on EFs from advanced economies, demonstrates mixed insights for the relationship between these strategies. A deeper understanding of the tradeoffs involved in the internationalization-innovation relationship may help better comprehend the issue. In this study, we draw on the organizational learning and capabilities-based literatures to examine the relationship in the context of EFs in transition economies (EFTEs). Our findings suggest that in EFTEs, internationalization is negatively associated with the likelihood of innovation. We also find that three knowledge-based capabilities of EFTEs (absorptive capacity, appropriation capability, and managerial capability) positively moderate the aforementioned negative relationship. We do not find any evidence of reverse causality (EFTE innovation impacting internationalization). Our research provides novel insights to the IE literature by shedding light on the internationalization–innovation tradeoffs that EFTEs experience.

管理企业家企业的国际化和创新权衡:来自转型经济的证据

对于企业家公司(EFs),国际化和创新是增长的两个主要途径。先前的研究主要基于发达经济体的外汇基金,对这些策略之间的关系表现出不同的见解。更深入地了解国际化与创新关系中的权衡取舍可能有助于更好地理解这一问题。在这项研究中,我们借鉴组织学习和基于能力的文献来研究转型经济体中EFs背景下的关系。我们的发现表明,在EFTE中,国际化与创新的可能性负相关。我们还发现EFTE的三种基于知识的功能(吸收能力,拨款能力,和管理能力)正面缓和了上述负面关系。我们没有发现任何反因果关系的证据(EFTE创新影响国际化)。我们的研究通过阐明EFTE经历的国际化与创新权衡,为IE文学提供了新颖的见解。
