A Research Study of Internationalization Processes of the Czech Family Businesses in Turbulent Markets

Original language description

The main research question of the paper is to find out what are the specifics of the internationalization process of entrepreneurial activities of Czech family businesses, whether it is possible to determine any specific model of internationalization of Czech companies and whether the course of the internationalization process of entrepreneurial activities has an impact on the current internationalization dynamics of Czech SMEs. The aim of the paper is to define and to specify typical characteristics of internationalization process of entrepreneurial activities of Czech family businesses as well as to evaluate the impact of the internationalization process on current internationalization dynamics of Czech SMEs. The text falls into the three parts. The first part outlines the field of internationalization process of entrepreneurial activities. Since the paper seems to offer pioneering work on internationalization models in Czech context the focus is on two basic models of international ization: the stage model and the early internationalization (global) model. The second part, research part offers the quantitative statistical and qualitative analysis of current trends towards entering foreign markets among selected Czech family businesses. The family businesses included in the study are those that have already undertaken internationalization activities and are incorporated in the Czech Republic. A total of 297 SMEs participated in the study and the main primary data collection instrument was a questionnaire-interview. Finally, the last section provides conclusion of the research and offers discussion of most important implications.
