演讲内容简介：

The growth of outward foreign direct investment (OFDI) from emerging markets has increased scholarly attention to the internationalization of emerging market firms (EMFs). This attention has in turn led to developments in the field in parallel with theoretical advances on the internationalization of developed market firms (DMFs). Yet, we believe there are still some opportunities to learn more from the unique features of the internationalization of EMFs. We approach this opportunity using a problematization approach. We contend that the generation of new knowledge in studying EMFs is limited because scholars view EMF OFDI predominantly as a strategic decision. We complement the strategic approach by introducing a geographic relational perspective. This perspective enables us to focus attention on theory development about EMFs’ internationalization by highlighting process thinking, complex social realities, and relational practice. Situating EMF internationalization within multifaceted contextual influences and integrating it with research on path-dependence and practice, our geographic relational lens generates new challenging research questions for understanding EMF internationalization.
