Abstract

The purpose of this study is to investigate the relationship between international entrepreneurship of exporters in Turkey and their export market performance. In respect, the research inquires two general questions; "Is there a link between firms' entrepreneurial behaviors and their success in export markets?" and "Does the level of internationalization make any difference in export market performance?". The study, which considers international entrepreneurship within the resource - based perspective, is assumed original in terms of research design, since the observations are independent of any industry or geographical region in Turkey. The findings reveal that firms' entrepreneurial orientation and behaviors in international markets have positive effects on their export performance and there is a significant difference in export market success between internationalized firms and others

Özet

Bu çalışmanın amacı, Türkiye'deki ihracatçı işletmelerin uluslararası girişimciliği ile ihracat pazar performansları arasındaki ilişkiyi incelemektir. Bu amaçla, araştırma "işletmelerin girişimcilik özellikleri ile ihracat pazarlarındaki başarıları ilişkili midir?" ve "uluslararasılaşma düzeyi ihracat pazar performansını farklılaştıran bir unsur mudur?" sorularına cevap aranmaktadır. Uluslararası girişimcilik kavramının kaynak temelli yaklaşım çerçevesinde ele alındığı araştırmanın, gözlemlenen işletmelerin Türkiye'deki herhangi bir coğrafi bölge veya sektöre bağımlı olmaması dolayısıyla, tasarım açısından özgün değer taşıdığı düşünülmektedir. Araştırma bulgularına göre yurtdışı pazarlara dönük girişimciliğe dair yönelim ve davranışların, ihracat performansına olumlu etkisi olduğu ve uluslararasılaşma düzeyi yüksek işletmeler ile diğerleri arasında ihracat pazar performansı açısından anlamlı farklılık bulunduğu ortaya çıkmaktadır
