Family Firms (FFs) form the majority of all firms around the world
and they account for an enormous percentage of the employment, the
revenue, and the GDP of most capitalist countries. While MNCs have
long been thought of as the main contributors to international
business, it is now recognised that a substantial number of family
firms are active in the international arena. This handbook focuses
on the features which make family firm internationalization unique.
Chapters provide FF specific theories and cover the process of FF
internationalization. It examines the role of network ties and
provides an insight into the development of family firms that have
grown into big multinationals. Importantly this Handbook equips you
with a better understanding of specific features of family firms as
they internationalize from or to Asian or emerging markets. Family
firms offer a fruitful context to study internationalization
through a process perspective, therefore this Handbook is an
invaluable source of knowledge for students, scholars and policy
makers in the areas of family business, entrepreneurship and
internationalization.
