This volume is dedicated to Lorraine Eden for her lifetime
contributions to IB scholarship. Her research, spanning several
decades, has addressed many interdisciplinary and societal themes
at the heart of the IB field. The story of her intellectual journey
-- strongly influenced by the coming of age of the fourth
industrial revolution -- is shared in the opening chapter of this
volume. This thirteenth volume in the PIBR series covers an
increasingly important area of research for International Business
(IB) scholars: the role of multinational enterprises (MNEs) in the
digital and information age. A limited number of MNEs now dominate
the landscape of the digital age, but almost all internationally
operating firms are being affected by prevailing trends. How to
take stock of these trends? How to develop resilient international
business models? How to regulate? The digital age presents new
opportunities but also major challenges for established and
emerging MNEs alike. This volume brings together papers from
leading IB scholars and from academics in adjacent disciplines such
as economic geography, international relations and political
science, strategic management, and technology studies. Four
dimensions of the information and digital age are analyzed using an
IB angle: Trends and theories in the information age
Entrepreneurial strategies in the information age Functional
strategies in the information age Industry 4.0
