Especially for SMEs, knowledge acquisition and its application are two critical elements in order to successfully compete in foreign markets. The role of knowledge and learning in the internationalization of firms has been well recognized, both according to internationalization process theory (Johanson & Vahlne, 1977; 1990) and international new venture research (Oviatt & McDougall, 1994). Knowledge is a necessary driver of the firm’s internationalization that facilitates the process of identifying and exploiting opportunities abroad, companies’ adaptation to foreign market contexts, and their ability to deal with environmental uncertainties. Corporate investments in international markets can be encouraged when the information and knowledge gap are reduced, because the foreign context becomes more familiar and the perceived risk decreases.
