Report on Formulation of International Strategy for Business
Question
Imagine that you are employed by an international company and that you have been charged with the task of producing a report for your CEO to aid in the formulation of the internationalization strategy of a company. The company need not be a real company. Given the requirement to relate your report to the background to the company and its strategic objectives (see section on Background below) it will normally be easier to use a fictitious company rather than try to find a real company that fits in with the background conditions.
Overall, the purpose of the assignment is for you to demonstrate your practical understanding of the topics covered in the module as well as to develop your skills in preparing reports for managers.
BACKGROUND TO THE COMPANY
- The company is an Asian or Latin American firm considering entry to Europe.
- The company is working in either in the manufacturing or services sectors.
All the major US MNCs in this industry are firmly established in Europe and they are involved in significant R&D and product development work in their European subsidiaries. Similarly the major European MNCs in the industry have subsidiaries in the US and they are involved in significant R&D and product development work in the US. The subsidiaries of US and European MNCs in Asia and Latin America are engaged in very limited R&D and product development work.
Your company has an international joint venture with the leading German MNC in this industry. The German MNC is unhappy with the performance of the joint venture because of what it regards as theft of its intellectual property by its Asian/Latin American partner.
The most important strategic goal of your company is that it plans to enter Europe to develop its capabilities in the areas of R&D and product development and to become one of the technological leaders in this industry. They hope to use the technological knowledge gained from the investments in Europe to develop products and production processes in their home base and to use this to expand their exports to Europe and the US. It is not a major objective of the company to export from its European subsidiaries
Your must select an industry in which the firm is located and clearly identify all the major industry specific factors which may affect the selection of the European country. You must also consider any institutional and cultural factors which affect the selected industry, and impact of any industry-specific factors on organizational structures and control strategies. For more details about the conditions of the report, please refer to the PDF document attached.
Summary
The question belongs to Corporate Strategy and it is about International Business Strategy. An example of an electronics company Oriental Electronics from Europe has been taken. Oriental Electronics is from Europe and it wants to expand into international markets. In one of its initial ventures with a German company, it failed and the report focuses on how to enter into another joint venture and make its international entry worthwhile.

WHAT OUR STUDENTS SAY
Was partying late night and forgot about my biotechnology assignment which was about to submit in 5 hours. Then approached several service providers but they refused to take up the assignment. Finally TheReliableTutor.com saved me. Submitted the assignment on time..!!!
Jordan Student
While pursuing my biotechnology course I stumbled on to the calculations and conceptualization of a DNA map assignment in genetics. I was unsure on how to go about it and was looking for help, online. I came across this site as they claimed to have a separate department for genetics assignment solutions. The experts here are really cool as they helped me understand and also helped me with the solution. Throughout my course I took help from them and I am really grateful.
Christopher Fisher Student
I was not aware what sort of things actually needed to be added in the research proposal and my college advisor was also not that clear. However, to my surprise the New Zealand based research proposal writer of HwA added so many important things like a brief review of literature, data collection method etc in my research proposal that not only I got an A+ grade but my paper is now showcased as a model paper in my college. Made me super proud.
Theresa Campbell Student
The accounting assignment due for my term end evaluation had to include data and examples from Wellington businesses. So when I mentioned this special requirement of mine to the customer care executives at TheReliableTutor they immediately paired me with an accounting assignment expert who is from Wellington and has himself studied from the Victoria University of Wellington. Needless to say I topped the class and the professor was very impressed by the quality of the assignment.
Sophie Eady Student
I got stuck with my supply chain assignment when I looked online for help. HwA was the only Australian site which responded almost instantly. When the solution also reached my email just on the next day, I was thrilled. The answers were correct and became a fan. From there on I kept on taking help from them.

Hello Allison,I love the 2nd image that you did! I also, had never heard of SumoPaint, is something that I will have to exolpre a bit! I understand completely the 52 (or so) youtube videos that you probably watched. Sometimes they have what you want, sometimes they don't! However, it is always satisfying when you are able to produce something that you have taught yourself. Great job!Debra 0 likes
