Internationalisation and European small- and medium-sized enterprises
Internationalisation and European small- and medium-sized enterprises
The chapter introduces main theoretical approaches to the study of SME internationalisation, opportunities and challenges, the SMEs’ international orientation and tendency in different contexts. The discussion will be illustrated with some empirical evidence not only in Central and Eastern Europe but also in a wider context. Additionally, the public policy intervention on SME internationalisation will be discussed to verify how the existing support has addressed SME needs to facilitate internationalisation and what the remaining concerns are.

Abstract
The chapter introduces main theoretical approaches to the study of SME internationalisation, opportunities and challenges, the SMEs’ international orientation and tendency in different contexts. The discussion will be illustrated with some empirical evidence not only in Central and Eastern Europe but also in a wider context. Additionally, the public policy intervention on SME internationalisation will be discussed to verify how the existing support has addressed SME needs to facilitate internationalisation and what the remaining concerns are.
