Abstract

The entry mode choice is at the core of International Business studies (Oortwijn, 2011a). IB research concerns the organization of firm activities across country borders and thus across different cultures and business contexts. These host country differences impact the firm’s way of working internally within the organization and in interaction with the external environment in the host country. Companies can consider a broad range of entry modes to organize across country borders, including partnership, trade, joint venture (JV), and wholly owned enterprise (WOE). The entry mode defines what activities are internalized within the firm and how the firm interacts with the external environment in different host countries.
