Tidskriftsartikel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This article shows that international entrepreneurship and immigrant entrepreneurship increasingly intersect in a global world. Both research streams address cross-border entrepreneurial activity in parallel to each other. International entrepreneurship focuses on outgoing entrepreneurial activity, while immigrant entrepreneurship mainly considers incoming entrepreneurial activity. The article critically discusses such a dichotomy, highlighting how differentiating immigrant entrepreneurs and international entrepreneurs perpetuates orientalist assumptions about cross-border business activity. Focusing on entrepreneurship as a behaviour, the article proposes an alternative perspective to cross-border entrepreneurship, discussing cross-border opportunity identification and exploitation between an entrepreneur’s country of residence and a foreign country. This perspective provides a number of avenues for further research open for scholars in the field of entrepreneurship to investigate either alone or in collaboration with other disciplines.

Bokkapitel (refereegranskat)abstract
- This chapter investigates different learning process in some specific types of international new ventures according to the founder’s previous experience and background, especially those of foreign outset (migrant, transnational) compared to domestic entrepreneurs. After a brief review of existing literature about entrepreneurial learning in the international context, this chapter proposes a framework where differences between the entrepreneurs’ and firms background and international experience shed further light on entrepreneurial learning. By identifying different types of founders with various backgrounds, the chapter thus offers the possibility for future research on the need for learning and the learning styles according to the different categories of new ventures. © 2019, Springer International Publishing AG, part of Springer Nature.
