Tiivistelmä: | The objective of this paper is to review the literature on how networks can be used in developing countries to encounter export-marketing problems. Several case studies of export-grouping and subcontracting networks, involving small- and medium-sized enterprises in developed and underdeveloped countries, are reviewed. The paper presents a qualitative model that identifies the determining factors for successful export network organisations: a clearly defined market problem or market opportunity; a willingness to respond together; development of solidarity, coherence and commitment; initiating foreign market activities. This model is useful to study similar initiatives in developing countries. |
