, Conventional versus New MNEs
Conventional Multinational Enterprises (MNEs):
In the past, numerous MNEs evolved from well-established, domestic corporations, and they
typically pursued gradual steps in their internationalization efforts.
Emerging Multinational Enterprises (MNEs):
These new types of MNEs deviate from the traditional Uppsala internationalization process
model.
Timing: They engage in swift internationalization.
Speed: The internationalization process occurs rapidly.
Destination: There's no strict adherence to predefined entry order stages.

Enhanced mobility of international finance and human capital.
The Resource-Based View (RBV) gaining increased explanatory power for
