Program Overview
International entrepreneurship is an established sub-domain of the entrepreneurship field. There is a growing recognition of the importance of contextual factors for the same. This module emphasizes the increasing importance of international entrepreneurship. Specifically, it examines the international aspects of entrepreneurial activity and how firms are embedded within a rapidly changing and increasingly competitive global socioeconomic and political context. Venture capital firms, corporate venture funds, and business angels have increased their financing in entrepreneurial start-ups outside of their countries of origin, while many entrepreneurial firms are now ‘born global’ to exploit international opportunities.
Cross-border business has both opportunities and obstacles. Businesses are looking for opportunities to expand worldwide to market their goods and services and maintain growth. However, due to the distinctive characteristics of foreign marketplaces and the complicated environment in international trade, this is far more difficult than managing the goods and services domestically. This module offers a critical understanding of several frameworks for corporate internationalization and analysis of decisions making frameworks by firms in an international setting. In addition, the module seeks to increase knowledge of international business theories and practices. Although this course’s content has roots in economics, management strategy, international finance, marketing, human resource management, and other perspectives will be mixed with (and challenged by) these concepts
