INTERNATIONALIZATION BARRIERS FACED BY TECHNOLOGY-BASED SMALL AND MEDIUM ENTERPRISES.
Resumo
The work aims to identify the barriers to the internationalization of technology-based SMEs in the state of Rio Grande do Norte. A theoretical framework was developed encompassing four main constructs about internationalization barriers. In total, 24 companies were evaluated; the sample was non-probabilistic, based on convenience. A cluster analysis was developed based on normalization of the observed frequencies so that comparisons of the companies’ performance could be carried out. It was noticed that the external barriers seem to be the most significant for the companies. Also, there was a lack of strategic management drive, leading to dispersed internationalization initiatives.
