Learning from Exporting
Learning from Exporting explores the relationship between exports and productivity. It examines how exporters derive such advantages by analyzing the relationship between exporting strategies and innovation, with empirical evidence from a representative sample of manufacturing firms. This unique study will prove a fascinating read for academics, researchers, and government and economic policymakers with an interest in business and management, international business, and of course, exporting.
Praise for Learning from Exporting
"This important study breaks new ground in our understanding of international business strategy. The author introduces a novel theoretical framework and subjects it to systematic econometric scrutiny to provide compelling findings that exports constitute a key business for learning and innovating, which ultimately bestows competitive advantage in international business strateg-strateg-strateg-strateg-strateg-strateg-strateg. This book opens the door to viewing exports not just as mere transactions across international borders but, more importantly, as providing a key platform facilitating firm learning and innovation."
