Abstract

We present a discrete choice model that analyses the location and control dilemmas of internationalising firms. The model relates simultaneously to a foreign market and to a foreign resource abundant country, and distinguishes between costs of performing specific value adding activities, costs of transportation and knowledge flows cost. The model also offers an economics-based dynamic dimension to firm internationalisation and reflects the role of host country knowldge resources.
