“…We used the approach of Freixanet (2012) to explore the differences between local and foreign firms' approaches to CPA and the role of antecedent conditions in CPS. Freixanet (2012) used contrast groups to explore the impact of export promotion programmes on the internationalisation and competitive performance of companies.…”

“…Freixanet (2012) used contrast groups to explore the impact of export promotion programmes on the internationalisation and competitive performance of companies. The classification approach (Freixanet, 2012) allowed us to examine both the differences in types of CPA and the role of antecedent conditions in the selection of CPA. We did this by first segmenting firms into foreign and local firms followed by a comparison of the types of CPA that the respective groups of firms engage in.…”

“…For example, industry-specific export promotion programs enhance firms' export performance by increasing their informational and experiential knowledge, stimulating managers' positive attitudes and perceptions towards exports, and increasing export commitment [92]. Hence, further research should control for the effects of an industry-specific export promotion program in the relationship between the eco-efficiency of government policy and exports of bioenergy technologies.…”

Eco-Efficiency of Government Policy and Exports in the Bioenergy Technology Market

2017

This study investigates how the eco-efficiency of government policy-continuously implementing innovation-friendly policy based on both environmental and economic considerations-affects the export performance of bioenergy technologies, using panel data from 16 countries during 1995-2012. Various heterogeneous panel framework tests are conducted. Our panel unit root and co-integration tests, which allow for cross-sectional dependence in the panel, show that the time series data on the eco-efficiency of public support, exports, and gross domestic product (GDP) are integrated and co-integrated. We set up a panel vector error correction model (VECM) to empirically test the casual relationship among the variables examined. The long-term parameters of the variables were calculated using dynamic ordinary lease squares (DOLS). Panel difference generalized method of moments (GMM) estimations were conducted to test the short-term relationship among the variables. The results of this study therefore show that the eco-efficiency of government policy positively influences export performance in the long run, but not in the short run. The presented findings also indicate that efficiently implemented government policy plays a crucial role in achieving environmentally sound and sustainable development, showing path dependence among the eco-efficiency of government policy, exports, and GDP. We finally suggest policy implications based on the results.

“…This constraint had a high positive loading on the market factor (Morgan, Katsikeas, & Vorhies, 2012). Participants indicated that most of the problems are in relation with the technical in -adaptability and deficiency of information about market requirements as a result of poor quality control techniques, packaging and labeling requirements including poor product design (Freixanet, 2012;Ginevičius & Šimelytė, 2011;Haluk Köksal & Kettaneh, 2011). Accordingly, Wortzel and Deng said that exporting standardized products seemed to be easier for inexperienced exporters.…”

Currently, future industrial development is contingent upon free zones, where the export of industrial goods, expansion of international trade, generation of new job opportunities and subsequent decrease in unemployment occurred. Free economic zones of the Islamic Republic of Iran were also established with the aim of cultural, economic and social plans to connect to international markets. The aim of this article is to focus on the main barriers that exist to export from the free trade zones in the country. In order to understand how Iranian exporters surmount obstacles and other variables including barriers related to human resources, financial issues and the market in free trade zones, we investigated the existing relationship and variables involved in export boost. The results obtained indicated that in developing markets, firms lack the essential managerial obligations to export and meet demands of the foreign market. Thus, major significant managerial capabilities and competencies are required for recognition of export barriers by adopting the best possible strategies.
