dc.description.abstract | Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) are often under pressure to expand at the highest
possible speed in international markets. They therefore embed themselves in net-
works of alliances where they can access resources in the form of relational assets,
information, and learning to facilitate swifter internationalisation whilst circumvent-
ing the risks of time-compression diseconomies. Hence, drawing from the network
theory of international business and the perspective of structural embeddedness
of interorganisational relationships, this study aims to determine the relationship
between access to and mobilisation of network resources in relation to the speed
of international expansion among MNEs. For this purpose, we assembled a sam-
ple of 131 global-reach MNEs from the airline industry and observed their inter-
national expansion activities over a 5-year period. Partial-Least-Squares Structural-
Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) was applied to capture the multidimensionality of
internationalisation speed, under the commitment-breadth-intensity framework, as
well as the multidimensionality of both embeddedness and mobilisation; similarly,
we employ Necessary Condition Analysis (NCA) to identify the necessary anteced-
ent variables in our research model. As a result, understanding was gained of the
position of each firm within an international alliance network, in terms of how it
creates value by obtaining access to resources for international expansion; further-
more, we learned that access is as necessary as mobilisation to increase internation-
alisation speed, and that, mobilisation is required to mediate the capture of network
opportunities. Consequently, the study provided insights for managerial practice:
MNEs should pursue centrality in their networks at the same time as planning their
resources mobilisation strategies. | es |
