“…This means that such firms should develop a global mindset (Ciszewska-Mlinarič, 2015) and be ready to monitor (Gorton and White, 2009) and react to potential entry and re-entry opportunities (Ciszewska-Mlinarič and Trapczyński, 2019a; Vissak, 2022ab). For that, it might be necessary to use a wide range of marketing channels (Jarosiński and Barłozewski, 2019), search for prospective international customers (Gorton and White, 2009), participate in foreign trade shows and exhibitions (Shirokova and McDougall-Covin, 2012), develop international sales offices (Ciszewska-Mlinarič et al , 2020; Vissak, 2013) or acquire foreign firms (Annushkina, 2014). Such activities could help firms to increase market power or achieve technological or other advantages (Durand and Lautier, 2013).…”

“…For successful subsequent internationalization, being competitive (being innovative, developing unique capabilities, resources, products or services) is also important as constant innovators tend to become more international (Brodzicki, 2017; Éltető and Udvari, 2019; Jarosiński and Barłozewski, 2019). To achieve considerable export growth, firms should also implement organizational and marketing innovations, not only technological and product innovations (Bodlaj et al , 2020) or at least remain flexible (Ciszewska-Mlinarič and Trapczyński, 2019a) and ready to adapt their products, promotion, distribution and/or prices, if necessary (Panibratov and Klishevich, 2020; Šeinauskienė et al , 2022).…”

Purpose This paper aims to give an overview of the literature on Central and Eastern European (CEE) firms’ successful internationalization: different authors’ understanding of success, and, thereafter, these firms’ internationalization processes, external factors, internal motivators and actions that affect successful internationalizers’ initial and subsequent foreign activities, and, finally, internationalization outcomes. Design/methodology/approach This is a systematic-narrative hybrid literature review paper that focuses on CEE firms’ successful internationalization. Findings This paper concludes that CEE firms’ “success” is understood and measured differently, successful internationalizers can experience various internationalization paths, they are affected by a large number of external impact factors, internal motivators or actions and their internationalization outcomes vary considerably. Thus, there is no “ideal” type of successful internationalization: as different CEE firms can be called “successful”, they also follow different trajectories to achieve success. Originality/value To the best of the author’s knowledge, this is the first literature review paper that gives an overview on how success has been defined in studies about CEE firms’ internationalization, if some types of internationalizers have been considered more successful and if there are any important CEE-specific contextual factors or not.

The aim of this paper is to diagnose the cause-and-effect relationships between reinvestment of earnings (RoE) and other components of FDI inflows and GDP in Poland in the years of 2004–2019, using the VECM model**. Changes in the structure of FDI inflows in Poland are in line with the stages of the FDI life cycle. The increase in the share of RoE in the structure of these investments is also accompanied by an increase in the impact and the degree of explanation of changes in GDP. Studies confirmed that changes in the structure of FDI in Poland was adequate to the theoretical cycle of FDI life. The increase in the share of RoE in the structure of FDI inflows is accompanied by a decrease in equities. The VECM model, impulse response function and decomposition analysis confirmed that among FDI components mainly equities, and next, RoE have large participation in the degree of explanation of GDP. In the short-term, mainly equity has the most important impact on GDP, and additionally, RoE. In the long-time, the importance of equity decreases, while increases the impact of RoE, and also, debt instruments. The increase in the share of RoE in the structure of FDI inflows accompanied by the increase in the impact of these investments on GDP changes.

The paper relates to the paradigm of the middle income trap (MIT) and covers mid-run challenges to the Polish economic development. Our theoretical background is based on the concepts of comparative advantage and intra-industry trade, while the empirical analysis concentrates on a sample of 14 product clusters. Obtained results reveal the competitive position of the Polish goods leading in the global mid- and high-tech exports. These findings may serve for the evidence-based smart industry and trade policy-making in Poland, as well as of other emerging economies. The fundamental question is which industries could serve as the engines of international expansion and become likely winners.
