Business Innovations From Emerging Market Countries Into Developed Countries: Implications for Multinationals From Developed Countries

摘要

This article addresses innovation and emerging-market countries. Both are important topics in the business world today. The focus of this article is on the importance of innovation and market development in emerging-market countries by Western multinational companies typically based in North America and Western Europe. The authors of this article argue that as Western multinationals innovate and develop emerging markets, this will give multinationals the opportunity not only to compete effectively in emerging markets but also to protect their home markets in developed countries. Implications for Western multinationals are discussed.
