There has been significant interest in role of entrepreneurs and
entrepreneurial activities in driving global economic growth and
also in responding to changing social and environmental conditions
that are affecting societies globally. The identification and
capture of international opportunities itself represent an act of
entrepreneurship by disrupting and making markets in foreign
countries. Historically, international entrepreneurship literature
has focused on the rapid and early internationalization of new
ventures and start-ups. Yet, an increasing number of multinational
enterprises (MNEs) are encouraging and developing corporate
intrapreneurship, where managers promote innovation in products and
processes. Moreover, we have witnessed entrepreneurs and their
start-ups' activities solving social, cultural, and environmental
challenges in foreign markets.This dedicated volume discusses these
contemporary and emerging issues of entrepreneurship in
International Business and is an essential read for entrepreneurs
and researchers.
This volume contains two Open Access chapters. Digital
transformation is permeating all domains of business and society.
Digital Transformation and Institutional Theory explores how
manifestations of digital transformation requires rethinking of our
understanding and theorization of institutional processes.
Showcasing a collaborative forum of organization and management
theory scholars and information systems researchers, the authors
enrich institutional theory approaches in understanding digital
transformation. Advancing institutional perspectives with an agenda
for future research and methodological reflections, the chapters
delve into digital transformations in relation to institutional
logics and technological affordances, professional projects and new
institutional agents, institutional infrastructure, and field
governance. This volume deepens our understanding of the pervasive
and increasingly important relationship between technology and
institutions and the response of existing professions to the
emergence of digital technologies. Moreover, the authors offer a
cutting-edge analysis of how new digital organizational forms
affect institutional fields, their infrastructure, and thus their
governance.
