软件行业是高科技行业国际化中的重要组成,也是网络关系理论构建中和分析“天生国际企业”时被考察最多的行业。中国软件企业在国际竞争中虽然是典型的后来者,但其在涉足国际业务时所表现出来的特征却能给我们很长远的启示。本文试图从中国小型软件企业的外包业务入手,探讨网络关系对企业国际化的影响。研究结果表明,小型软件企业在国际化的过程中,主动寻求网络关系并且能够从这种资源中获益,减少市场成本。该结果支持了两大主流理论,交易成本和资源基础理论的融合。
The software industry is an important part of the internationalization of high-tech industries and also the most visited industry in the construction of network theory and the analysis of “born international enterprises”. Although China’s software enterprises are typical latecomers in the international competition, the features they showed when they set foot in international business can give us a long-term inspiration. This paper tries to start from the outsourcing business of small software enterprises in China and discusses the influence of network relations on the internationalization of enterprises. The results show that the small software enterprises in the process of internationalization, take the initiative to seek network relations and can benefit from such resources to reduce market costs. This result supports the convergence of the two mainstream theories, transaction costs and resource-based theory.
