A Conceptual Evaluation of Born Global Firms

Abstract

Internationalization processes of firms have been the subject of many research in the field of international business for many years. One of the promising areas of these researches is Born Global Firms (BGs). BGs are conceptualized as small size enterprises that adopt an international or even global approach right from their birth or shortly thereafter despite their limited resources and lack of international experience. This study aims to make a comprehensive literature review about BGs considering the latest developments in the field. It is thought that the research, which presents a conceptual framework, will shed new light on future studies on BGs.
