Abstract

Public export incentives are common instruments used to promote firms' internationalization. The article provides an empirical analysis of their relevance to Italian small and medium-size enterprises (SMEs) in the textile and fashion industry. Results show that public economic and financial incentives stimulate firms that have no internationalization experience to enter foreign markets. Nevertheless, SMEs can fully benefit from these programs only if they satisfy some prerequisites. Theoretical and practical implications of these results are discussed.
