Abstract |
The present undertaking aims to theoretically depict the opportunities and vulnerabilities that small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are prone to face - unlike the bigger actors -, insisting on the internationalization conditions, from accessing relevant knowledge to deploying successful operations in foreign markets. The motivation to elaborate on this approach is determined by the fact that a better understanding of the SMEs cross-border performance in relation to their specific characteristics and inputs would provide additional insights into the future of small and medium-sized business and their topical ventures, especially in their foreign initiatives and projects. Further, a theoretical outlook on the existing opportunities and vulnerabilities would become an important step towards the formation of proper managerial attitudes and conducts regarding the organizational and environmental dynamics. |
