Abstract

In this paper two dimensions of dynamic international opportunity recognition (OR) construct – ’innovativeness and timeliness’ and ’modification and resource shifting’ – are identified as mediating mechanisms that link social and business networks to international performance. From a sample of 647 international new ventures (INVs) from a developing economy, our results provide evidence for the mediating effect of dynamic international OR. This study fills a gap in the under-researched area surrounding opportunity related activities in international entrepreneurship (IE) literature and shows how INVs from an emerging economy can leverage the network dynamics of OR to achieve financial, non-financial, and network-related performance from early internationalization.
