Abstract

It has been three decades since Oviatt and McDougall (1994) introduced international entrepreneurship (IE) as a multidisciplinary domain incorporating entrepreneurship and international business studies. According to McDougall and Oviatt (2000), IE explores the extent to which small and entrepreneurial firms embrace riskseeking, proactive, and innovative activities to explore and exploit foreign market business opportunities.
