Description: |
AbstractMicroenterprises are the most common type of firm within the European Union, accounting for 93.2% of all enterprises. This study’s aim is to obtain an overview of the literature on microenterprises’ internationalisation; this is done by conducting a systematic literature review (SLR). The research question of this study is as follows: what is studied in an academic context about the internationalisation of microenterprises? The findings highlight that there is a lack of academic research focused on the internationalisation of microenterprises as a special group of enterprises. The study contributes to the field of international entrepreneurship and literature on microenterprises. see all
