| Tiivistelmä: | Business developments in Europe and the rest of the world have pushed researchers and practitioners to examine the effect of cultural diversity on economic performance. Moreover, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) have finally been recognized in many countries as one of the most important driving forces of innovation and economic growth, and studies focusing on their peculiarity are spreading (Dvidson,1989, Storey, 1994). This important new focus on cultural and size specificity has, at the same time, had the effect of disregarding the other side of the coin, that is, the issue of similarity and comparability of differences between firms located in different national contexts and with different ownership. |
