Abstract
ABSTRACT This paper exposes emerging issues that form a robust platform for the integration of two asymmetric, but archetypal, forms of 21st century business organisation responsible for wealth creation at the global and local level-Multi-Transnational Enterprises (MTNEs) and Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). It does so in the context of the business environment increasingly characterised by a complex dynamic of change among firms that is a change from international competition to global co-operation. The paper considers the major implications of the geo-economically dispersed but Integrated International Sourcing, Production and Marketing Networks (IISPMNs) of MTNEs and examines issues for the engagement of SMEs in the resulting information processing and knowledge creation. It concludes by delineating the dimensions of this engagement which form a hitherto insufficiently researched business agenda.
