The Influence of Japanese Domestic Interfirm Networks in Japanese Cooperative Ventures in North America: Partner Choice, Speed of Venture Establishment, and Survival
Taken together, the findings of this research suggest that Japanese firms have mobilized their domestic network relationships to reduce the risk of internationalization. Yet, the research also shows that the Japanese firms have not entered into these domestic relationships to the exclusion of ventures with North American firms. In addition, the influence of the domestic relationships differs depending on the goals of the overseas CVs, and evolves as the firms accumulate experience with the host country.
