This edited volume develops an understanding of the strategies, processes, issues and concerns involved when small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) go international with their local products/services and vice versa. It is a compendium of eighteen selected chapters on the subject, supported by an introductory chapter. The contributions are organized in four parts based on the sub-themes they deal with. The first part, containing the introductory chapter, provides different perspectives on transnational entrepreneurship, returnee entrepreneurship and their linkages with the internationalization process. The subsequent parts have chapters dealing with three sub-themes of the subject – the internal factors (individual and firm-level resources), the external factors (entrepreneurial ecosystem), and the process of organizational transformation and change, respectively, in the context of SME internationalization.Special issues and challenges being faced by SME entrepreneurs inemerging economies have been highlighted in this book, discussing key contemporary issues with regard to internationalization in the three dimensions outlined above. Further, the book explains how an entrepreneur can engineer the transformation of his/her organization into an international SME.This book is a very useful resource for entrepreneurs and policy-makers in general, and for academics and researchers in particular, as it provides an overview of the contemporary research in the critical areas of SME internationalization and transnational entrepreneurship by highlighting the linkages between them with special reference to emerging economies.

This book examines how entrepreneurial communities in Pakistan and beyond counteract social disintegration fuelled by neoliberal economic practices. It highlights the role of moral and social capital in mitigating social pathologies such as alienation, exclusion, and inequality caused by the disintegration of traditional family and community networks. Through an in-depth analysis of family, community, market, and firm dynamics in ethnic entrepreneurial communities, the book highlights how these groups avoid disintegration through the cultivation and preservation of moral and social capital. Comparative insights from ethnic, minority and community based entrepreneurial contexts further enrich the analysis and contribute to current debates in economic sociology, development studies, and the anthropology of entrepreneurship. It also offers a valuable resource for policymakers and development practitioners interested in community-based strategies for achieving socioeconomic sustainability. This volume will appeal to scholars and advanced students in sociology, political economy, organizational studies, and community development.

This book illustrates a connection between entrepreneurship and development in an emerging economy context, focusing on Nepal. That entrepreneurship contributes to sustainable development by creating jobs, elevating economic growth, promoting innovation, and mitigating social and environmental challenges is discussed in other works. Entrepreneurship is linked to several sustainable development goals. However, relatively little is known about entrepreneurship in Nepal at an international level and rarely have researchers attempted to explore the relationship between entrepreneurship and development in the Nepalese context. In this regard, this book generates valuable insights, not only contributing to policy implications but also setting a direction for entrepreneurship research in Nepal within a wider context of sustainable development.In particular, the book discusses several important issues on entrepreneurship, including migrant entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial ecosystem, social entrepreneurship, entrepreneurial finance, community-based entrepreneurship, and tourism entrepreneurship, issues which are intrinsically connected to the sustainable development of the country. In addition to policy contributions, the book provides a direction for facilitating theoretically underpinned work in entrepreneurship and development in the Nepalese context. The factors driving entrepreneurship, including specific social-cultural and historical factors that remain relevant for emerging economies, and emancipation, inclusion and participation, which are central to achieving development, are to be theorized in order to better understand the relationship between entrepreneurship and development. The topics covered by the book will be of interest to policy-makers from ministries and departments, international organizations, and development partners.
