Abstract: | The empirical investigation uses a sample of Dutch firms from two different sectors: one that can be labelled as typically 'old economy' (i.e. mechanical engineering) and one that can be described as 'new economy' (i.e. computer software). Results show that small firms follows an evolutionary internationalisation path (with incidental set-backs), while a majority prefer a cooperative internationalisation strategy. In contrast with expectations, type of industry does not matter. |
