Abstract

The international entrepreneurship (IE) literature has proliferated over the past few decades, where researchers perceive internationalization as rapid and opportunity-driven. Despite the proliferation of research on IE, little is known about the extent of the relationship between the antecedents of opportunity recognition and IE. Hypotheses are formulated to test this relationship and a survey is administered to internationalized firms in South Africa. Following statistical analyses, results show that it is the antecedent of organizational learning which is positively related to opportunity recognition. These findings lead to recommendations in terms of how a combination of different learning and knowledge capabilities can be leveraged by entrepreneurs to increase opportunity recognition in internationalized firms.
