“…International SMEs should direct their attention to the constant development of their IEO. Raats and Krakauer (2020) point out that the different dimensions of IEO assume distinct, synergistic effects at different times, improving the international experience of companies undergoing internationalisation. In their literature review, Kuivalainen et al.…”

PurposeInternational entrepreneurship (IE) has received a considerable amount of attention in the recent decades as a result of globalization enabling access to new international markets and business opportunities. Despite the growing increase in academic publications, IE still faces certain inconsistencies, with doubts remaining as regards its boundaries and the thematic groups making up the field. The purpose of this article is to systematically analyse the IE, mapping the intellectual territory and the evolution of the field.Design/methodology/approach Indexed to Web of Science( WoS) database until 2021, from 52 journals, 130 articles were selected, applying content analyses techniques to identify the main research lines.FindingsThe results reveal that IE presents four conceptual themes/clusters: (1) international business networks and opportunities; (2) institutional environments; (3) the characteristics and motivations of entrepreneurs; and (4) internationalisation drivers and processes. Extant analysis show that IE has progressed immensely, concentrating a good diversity of subtopics and research trends. An integrative framework bringing together 27 years of publications and 67 future research lines, detailed by cluster, were also presented in this study to improve understanding and guide future studies.Originality/valueThis review makes a broad contribution to the IE literature, assisting in consolidating the academic field, expanding and complementing the results of previous theoretical–conceptual studies. We reflect and individually discuss the state of the art of the four streams that characterize IE to identify key themes, points of convergence and advance new subfields.

“…The essence of IEO in the literature presented over the last years is shown in Table 1. Most researchers believe that IEO uses the three-dimensional concept of EO (Dai, Maksimov, Gilbert & Fernhaber, 2014;Gupta & Gupta, 2015;Raats & Krakauer, 2020), complementing the international context of entrepreneurship.…”

This article focuses on entrepreneurial orientation in a firm’s internationalisation process, which is one of the leading research trends in international entrepreneurship. The objective of the study is to verify the relationship between proactiveness, risk-taking and innovativeness as components of the entrepreneurial orientation of internationalised Polish firms. The article answers the main research question of how proactiveness and risk-taking influence innovativeness as an interrelated three-dimensional construct of entrepreneurial orientation. We present the results of a study based on a stratified sampling of 355 internationalised Polish firms. Structural equation modelling (CB-SEM) demonstrated a positive effect of proactiveness (PROACT) and risk-taking (RISK) on innovativeness (INNO) as an interrelated three-dimensional construct of entrepreneurial orientation. Moreover, the level of proactiveness (PROACT) and risk-taking (RISK) explained 32% of the variation in innovativeness (INNO), which is high in social sciences, including business studies.

“…Lumpkin et al (2013) suggest that the presence of multiple stakeholders and access to funding/financing impact risk-taking, competitive aggressiveness, and autonomy. Raats & Krakauer (2020) state that it is necessary to combine the dimensions of competitive aggressiveness and autonomy for the construct of EO to exist in a dynamic environment. Several studies provide an overview of all the significant research on the concept of EO (Covin, Miller 2014;Wales, 2016).…”

“…Such factors can encourage the efforts of entrepreneurs in overcoming many obstacles they face in developing business processes (Acs et al, 2008). Numerous studies state that innovativeness is not a uniformly identified variable, so the testing of structured models with overlapping dimensions is often proposed, for example, in the domain of International Entrepreneurial Orientation (IEO) - (Dai et al 2014;Thanos et al 2017;Głodowska et al 2019;Raats, Krakauer 2020); or testing with mutually exclusive constructs (Covin, Miller 2014). Finally, there are cases where the relevant forms of innovativeness have been limited to those connected with the new inputs in the fields of technology, business models, products, services or markets (Covin, Wales 2019).…”

The research explores whether there were changes in the model of the impact that entrepreneurial orientation (EO) had on innovativeness and business performance in Croatian companies, in the 2016-2019 period. To analyse data, we used regression and covariance analysis. The results reveal that the impact of entrepreneurial orientation and proactiveness on innovativeness and business performance did not show a significant statistical change between the years 2016 and 2019 in Croatian companies. However, the impact of risk-taking on innovativeness showed a statistically significant change. The change in the impact of risk-taking on business performance, and the change in the impact that autonomy had on innovativeness and business performance, could not be statistically reliably established. The results can benefit companies to better understand the entrepreneurial orientation and thus to increase the level of innovativeness in their operations. In the long run, this leads to the market competitiveness of their company. The results also contribute to the development of scientific thoughts about entrepreneurial success as the ultimate goal of entrepreneurship. Besides its contribution to the research of entrepreneurship, this article has meaningful implications for policy-makers and managers.
