Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Sharing Economy platforms have expanded their operations all around the globe at an unexpected rate. Due to its “asset-lite” nature, traditional internationalisation theories may not be able to fully explain or predict their expansion patterns. This lack of theoretical background puts at risk the phenomenon’s future and stops traditional companies from coming up with a solid plan to compete against platforms. To ease the creation of a Sharing Economy internationalisation paradigm, this paper intends to review the existing research regarding the internationalisation of sharing platforms as well as the applicability of existing theories. Through a systematic literature review, the existing research was reviewed, and afterwards, internationalisation theories and their distinct factors extracted were noted to address the applicability of these within the singularities of the sharing phenomenon. This classification of factors was done according to the exiting literature in the field. After this research, we can confirm the lack of explanatory power of traditional theories regarding sharing platforms and confirm the insufficient research regarding these operations. We propose a list of factors that should be considered for future research as a guideline for the further development of the Sharing Economy internationalisation theory. Additionally, the factors classification is tested upon the case of the internationalisation of Blablacar, the most extensive carpooling network operating, to check if the theoretical and the practical approaches converge.

"How do SMEs use support services during their internationalisation process: A comparative study of French traditional SMEs and INVs in Asia". International Small Business Journal: Researching Entrepreneurship 37, n. 8 (18 settembre 2019): 804–30. http://dx.doi.org/10.1177/0266242619871165.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This article integrates research on the internationalisation processes of small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs) and export assistance services to investigate how such firms use support services drawing upon a large, qualitative study of 32 French traditional SMEs and international new ventures (INVs) that have entered Asia. Our key contribution is to consider the time to internationalisation (gradual or rapid) and the stage of internationalisation (entrance or intensification) rather than export intensity alone, and to examine how support services can help SMEs internationalise. The identification of different configurations of uses leads to the development of theoretical propositions that extend existing models pertaining to support services and firm internationalisation. These findings have several important managerial implications for support services to target their offer more precisely to two types of SMEs; they also provide useful guidance for SMEs to determine which tailor-made offerings from private and public actors are most applicable to their internationalisation efforts.

AbstractThe literature on internationalisation processes in family businesses has boomed with the emergence of new approaches and different perspectives. One of these schemes analyses the so-called born-again global firms, mostly technology companies, which experienced an internationalisation process after one or more serious incidents affecting it. The case of Ines Rosales extends the frontier of the meaning of a global born-again firm to firms in industries and traditional products. One of its most striking aspects is that the flagship product is centennial and based on basic ingredients. In addition, the production process of the firm mix production by hand and mechanised developments. Inés Rosales shows the ability of a family Small and Medium Enterprise (SME) in a process of internationalisation even in culturally distant markets through the traditional cake of olive oil.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose – There has been growing interest in studying the internationalisation of small and medium-sized high-technology firms. This literature tends to equate “internationalisation” with the “internationalisation of sales”. Yet sales are not the only international activity of high-tech firms. High-tech firms need resources and not just markets. The purpose of this paper is to contribute to an understanding of this resource dimension of the international behaviour of high-tech firms. Design/methodology/approach – The empirical basis for the study lies in a multiple case study of six high-tech small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The authors selected two firms from each of three high-tech industries: biotechnology (specifically drug development), renewable energy and ICT. The key decision makers in each firms were then interviewed in depth. Findings – The authors show that for the case firms in the study, internationalisation can take the form of searching, prospecting or “scavenging” for resources. “Resource-seeking” behaviour occurs because the SMEs do not own, control or have access to sufficient resources to bring their technology to market on their own. The pattern of internationalisation that results from resource scavenging is different to that of traditional “market-seeking” internationalisation. Originality/value – This paper provides evidence of how the resource-acquisition behaviour of high-tech SMEs can be an important element of their internationalisation. Yet existing literature has focused almost exclusively on the market-seeking internationalisation of these firms.

Purpose This study aims to examine internationalisation pathways of small and medium enterprises (SMEs) based on a sample from Manchester, UK, and it provides an exercise theory testing of the Uppsala model with data from SMEs from Manchester. It investigates the existence of new internationalisation pathways and the parallel use of four dimensions, namely, export intensity, export destination, time dimension and number of export markets. Design/methodology/approach The suggested model of international pathways is developed based on a survey of 110 firms located in the Greater Manchester area. The study of the population was based on a stratified sample of firms included in the KOMPASS directory in the Greater Manchester area. t-Test analysis was performed on combinations of the six pathways. Findings The results reveal that SMEs follow a pattern of internationalisation pathways consisting of non-exporters, traditional small exporters, traditional medium exporters, accelerated medium exporters, born globals and declining exporters. The paper concludes that the Uppsala model does not apply in this study. Originality/value There is evidence of a new pathway, i.e. accelerated medium exporters and the CEOs of Manchester SMEs, and governmental authorities in the UK should consider targeting this group or developing appropriate export promotion programmes.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Korea and China are among the rising challengers in the international ICT (Information Communication and Technology) standards regime. They are attempting to internationalize their home-grown technologies. As latecomers they share similarities and display differences. This paper examines two Korean cases (WIPI and WiBro), and compares with Chinese cases. Thereby it helps to conceptualize and evaluate latecomers’ strategies for international standardization. Comparison of the two countries’ strategies for international standardization is useful and timely particularly considering forthcoming FTA negotiations between the two countries where TBT (technical barriers to trade) including standards becomes a critical part of the agreement. The cases of the two countries share some commonalities in terms of origination (local R&D), government leadership and motivation (reduction of royalties). The main difference is that while Korea is oriented towards the outside, China is towards the inside, at least by now. Due to its huge domestic markets and global influence, China’s standards form a real threat to the incumbent standards from traditional players like US and EU.

Proceedings of the International Scientific Conference 1 (25 maggio 2018): 361–72. http://dx.doi.org/10.17770/sie2018vol1.3282.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Internationalisation of higher education at home is a relatively new phenomenon for Russia but, as a concept, it is one that is both broad and variable. The internationalisation of higher education at home has been influenced by the globalisation of economies and societies and the increased importance of knowledge. It is driven by a dynamic and constantly evolving combination of political, economic, socio-cultural and academic rationales. These motives take different forms and dimensions in different regions, in institutions and within their educational programmes. This study covers an intensive course named “Cross-cultural Communication” and its impact within Tempus, Erasmus+ and other funding programmes as well as traditional content of this course. The content of the course is evaluated through several approaches. The starting point is to consider how particular courses are taken into account in long-term strategies of universities, and on the other hand, how these intensive courses advance the implementation of internalisation strategies. Another approach concerns internationalisation at home and helps find out how, specifically, intensive courses advance internationalisation. The next point covers education and teaching development and shows what role particular courses have in the transfer of teaching methods, materials and whole course concepts in Russian higher education institutions.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose The purpose of this study was to examine the characteristics of mainland Chinese hotel firm internationalisation relative to traditional Western internationalisation theory through an analysis of the Shanghai Jin Jiang International Hotels Group’s joint venture with the Thayer Lodging Group to acquire Interstate Hotels & Resorts. Design/methodology/approach The case study method was used to examine the three firms involved in the joint venture acquisition. The technique of elite interviews was used to collect primary data. Semi-structured personal interviews were conducted with senior corporate executives who were engaged as principals with the conception, execution and administration of the joint venture. Content analysis was performed with the interview data, seeking themes and patterns consistent with the study purpose. Findings The findings demonstrated specific characteristics that distinguish the internationalisation that Jin Jiang has pursued. The five distinctive characteristics were as follows: a “leap” market entry mode, a pattern of “a small fish eats a big fish”, a preference for purchasing hotels in the West, capital sourcing from Chinese banks and strategic rather than operational control of the acquired firm. Research limitations/implications The findings indicate both similarities and differences between the China context of hotel firm internationalisation and that of Western firms. Theoretical implications are examined through an analysis of Dunning’s OLI (ownership, location, internalisation) framework. Generalisability of empirical findings may be limited by the China context and the unique combination of three firms. Practical implications The findings advance our understanding of the relationship between Chinese and Western practices, particularly in the approaches that firms take in internationalisation. Originality/value The story reported in this paper is about the first firm internationalisation endeavour in the mainland Chinese hotel industry. This is a landmark event for the international hospitality industry that will have historical significance, and represents the leading edge of mainland Chinese hotel firm cross-border expansion. This study contributes an early analysis of how the Chinese hotel sector may approach internationalisation.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Purpose The purpose of the research is to put to a test the belief that the idiosyncratic internationalisation process of Internet firms is homogeneous. The research question is thus, “How does the value creation logic of Internet firms influence their internationalisation process?”. Design/methodology/approach The authors answer this question using three cases illustrating the internationalisation process of three pure play digital service firms, each falling into one value creation logic. Findings Each case company had a different approach to internationalisation, explained by a different theory. The firms differed in what their motivation was to internationalise, how they dealt with their liability of foreignness and how they learnt to internationalise. The differences were consistent with the specificities of their value creation. The contribution of this paper is to take the first steps towards linking the way firms create value with their internationalisation. What theory best explains the internationalization of IFs seems contingent on what firms do. Practical implications The message to practitioners is that international strategy not only can but also needs to be different across firms. It needs to be tailored to the concrete way a firm endeavours to generate and capture value. “One strategy fits most” is unlikely to succeed, because different value propositions demand different approaches to realising them. Originality/value In extant literature, IFs have been treated as one group, albeit distinct from “offline” firms. This paper proposes that the value creation process of IFs causes them to differ from each other, just as much as they differ from traditional firms.

Massa, Nathaniel P. "Internationalisation of traditional, small and medium-sized family businesses : an absorptive capacity approach". Thesis, University of Glasgow, 2012. http://theses.gla.ac.uk/3345/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This thesis investigates the internationalisation of Maltese small and medium-sized family businesses (SMFBs) engaged in more traditional economic activity. Despite family businesses dominating enterprise populations worldwide, and increasing policy awareness acknowledging their leading role in socio-economic development, research into the internationalisation of family businesses remains extremely limited. Addressing this gap, this study examines the internationalisation of these under-researched firms, investigating how their unique characteristics and circumstances impact and effect on internationalisation dynamics and processes. The overarching exploratory research question driving the central thrust of this study is: ‘What is the nature and extent of internationalisation among SMFBs in this context?’ In increasingly competitive globalised markets, understanding such dynamics is important at firm and national levels. Subsequently, given the established fundamental role of knowledge in internationalisation, this study seeks further understanding asking: ‘How do such SMFBs approach knowledge requirements associated with internationalisation, as proposed by the absorptive capacity (ACAP) approach?’ In adopting an ACAP approach, this research explores and examines how information and knowledge associated with internationalisation is acquired, assimilated and exploited. Given that hardly any research exists at the domain intersects which this thesis addresses, it synthesises and draws together research from the distinct fields of small firm internationalisation, family business, and emerging ACAP research. Seeking context-rich meanings, a qualitative, case-based approach involving eight SMFBs was adopted. Focus converged onto specific internationalisation events. First, in-depth analysis of the SMFBs’ outward internationalisation processes from first steps was undertaken – tracing SMFBs’ evolution, development and international activity over time. Secondly, adopting an ACAP approach and building on acquired insights guiding further investigation, an analytic framework was developed integrating internationalisation events with associated ACAP dynamics. The SMFBs’ internationalisation was found to be mainly influenced by the entrepreneur system, managers’ characteristics and volition, idiosyncratic circumstances and environmental dynamics. Contrasting with internationalisation process theories (IPT) traditionally attributed to this context, SMFBs were also observed internationalising from inception, or rapidly as ‘born again internationals’ at a mature stage. Despite size-related resource limitations, in instances owner-MDs creatively engaged in more committing modes and FDI – leapfrogging internationalisation stages. Such behaviour not being sufficiently explained or accommodated by IPT or INV perspectives, this thesis underlined importance in adopting more holistic approaches, integrating social and relational as well as resource perspectives in investigating complex phenomena associated with internationalisation. Novel in adopting an ACAP approach in this context, key findings converged on the crucial centrality of the founder / owner-MD and the vital role of social contacts and relationships in determining SMFB internationalisation and associated ACAP. A main contribution of this research inheres in its empirically derived insights and the development of a conceptual approach on these tacit core elements organically determining internationalisation, associated ACAP dynamics and capability in traditionally-oriented SMFBs. This departs from existing operationalisations which emphasise formal and structured knowledge processes within knowledge-intensive corporate environments – incompatible with this research’s context, notwithstanding ACAP’s universal relevance. Findings highlight the importance of delicately balancing management and family dynamics, a double-edged prime source of competitive advantage (or disadvantage) directly influencing both ACAP and internationalisation capability. This thesis concludes with a discussion of the implications for theory, management and policy.

Lin, Chia-Shu. "An empirical cross-sectional survey of food retail internationalisation in Taiwanese hyper, super and traditional markets". Thesis, University of Sunderland, 2009. http://sure.sunderland.ac.uk/5206/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This doctoral thesis presents the findings from an empirical cross-sectional survey of food retail internationalisation in Taiwanese hypermarkets, supermarkets and traditional markets. A critical review of the works of Dupuis and Prime (1996) reveals erratic sales performance of hypermarkets operating in Taiwan and in other Asia-Pacific countries since 1989; this sales trend may be linked to lack of understanding of Taiwanese shopping preferences and choices (Burt and Carralero-Encinas, 2000). This led to the research question: “Can global food retailers using hypermarket store formats achieve and sustain their competitive advantage in emerging economies such as Taiwan”. This led to statement of research objectives with the overall aim to investigate how global food retailers using a hypermarket store format can successfully operate in the Taiwanese food retail market. These objectives were achieved by adopting a phenomenological research philosophy and a mix of focus group interviews and questionnaires (Churchill and Iacobucci, 2005; Saunders et al., 2007). The primary data were presented and analysed using both qualitative and quantitative techniques through employed Microsoft Excel and SPSS (Statistical Package for the Social Sciences). The thesis identified six critical factors: (1) facility convenience, (2) shopping environment, (3) convenient products, (4) price incentive, (5) convenient services, and (6) shopping convenience which impact Taiwanese store patronage. The results of the factor and cluster analyses reveal that ‘facility convenience’ (with the highest alpha coefficient value of α = 0.748) has the greatest impact on five Taiwanese shopping clusters: (1) Value shoppers, (2) Environment shoppers, (3) Efficient shoppers, (4) Leisure shoppers, and (5) Convenient shoppers. Hypothesis and chi-square tests revealed a relationship between the factors and clusters, which represents sources of competitive advantage for each store format, and formed the bases for constructing a conceptual framework for retail internationalisation in Taiwan. The framework is the thesis’ major contribution to knowledge in providing better understanding of Taiwanese consumer patronage of store formats - this has series implications for global food retailers in the broad area of food retail internationalisation. The major limitation of the thesis relates to the fact that there is a limited extent to which the conceptual framework could be generalised across emerging economies in the Asia-Pacific Region. The issue of generalisability led to identification of the following two key areas for further research: • Testing the conceptual framework by widening the sample size to cover other cities in Taiwan and other emerging markets. This would make the framework more relevant to the Asia-Pacific Region. • A comparative study to identify trends in grocery shopping behaviour involving hypermarkets, supermarkets and traditional markets in Europe and Asia.

"Issues, successes and coping mechanisms : non-traditional Indian students' experience in the context of inclusive practice and internationalisation of higher education in the UK". Thesis, University College London (University of London), 2012. http://discovery.ucl.ac.uk/10020690/.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
This study explores the journey of 24 non-traditional Indian students who have won a year's Ford Fellowship to do their masters' degree in development in eight different UK universities. The themes in this study revolve around Internationalisation and Widening Participation. I engaged in a longitudinal study (17 months) from a constructivist perspective. The eclectic nature of the data enabled a multidimensional construction of students' perceptions through academic experiences: focus-group interviews in Delhi explored their hopes and fears; questionnaires and follow-up meetings a month after their arrival in the UK revealed their perceptions and issues; two sets of eight in-depth interviews before Christmas and Easter enabled to further understand their successes, issues, and coping mechanisms. Finally reflective questionnaires at the end of their course provided a global view of their experience. This generated a discussion about the universities' ability to support and maximise learning for this unique group of students, who are very experienced in their field and have great potential, yet who could be considered at risk because of their disadvantaged backgrounds. Although the participants share characteristics with those accounted for in the widening participation discourse, they are not British, don't work or pay fees. They belong to the international population but they are very disadvantaged and most probably first generation literate. By using Bourdieu's field theory, analysing secondary research (Jones E., 2010; Montgomery C., 2010; Basit T. N. and Tomlinson S., 2012) around these themes and comparing them with my findings, these students' voices provide an authentic testimony of the sometimes conflicting constructions of their confrontation with the deficit discourse of the academic audience. This study offers students' unique accounts and insights into equality, diversity and inclusive practices within UK educational institutions.

Gomes, Francisco José Correia. "How to successfully manage the early internationalisation process of a Digital Marketing agency". Master's thesis, 2015. http://hdl.handle.net/10400.14/18411.
Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Digital Marketing is one of the biggest business trends today, with this market experiencing
consecutive growth over the last years. Its attractiveness acts as a trigger for the emergence of
Born Global firms, which focus on selling online advertising services. Such firms target
several foreign markets from inception. This challenges traditional internationalisation
theories, like the Uppsala model, in which international expansion is seen as more of an
incremental process.
The aim of this dissertation is to understand how digital marketing agencies can follow a
successful and sustainable internationalisation process. The final output is to combine
guidelines that can be seen as a structure to follow regarding internationalisation. It focuses on
the start of foreign expansion activities, by building a framework that describes how online
advertising agencies should expand given the characteristics of their business. To accomplish
this, a case-study research approach was employed, in which key informants in leading
Digital Marketing agencies in the Portuguese market were interviewed. To support the given
recommendations, financial data regarding the foreign operations of one of them was
analysed.
Findings indicate that Portuguese digital marketing agencies should follow a hybrid
internationalisation model, with characteristics from both traditional school of thought
(Uppsala Model) and the most recent theories (Born Global and the importance of networks).
Agencies at the beginning of their internationalisation process should start by carefully
selecting and evaluating their networking potential, in order to find the best partners to work
with in each country. However, they should also carry out extensive strategic analysis to
assess their cultural, administrative, geographical, economical and digital distance to the
different countries they could potentially target. Market knowledge and the commitment of
resources must be carefully managed in order to reduce uncertainty and, therefore, risk. The
entry modes in the different markets must be characterised by the moderate level of control,
low resource commitment and the establishment of sales force in the foreign market, so that
the firm can achieve sustainability and keep entering new markets.O Marketing Digital surge como uma das maiores tendências de negócios nos dias de hoje, crescendo em volume ano após ano. A atratividade desta área surge como o impulso ao aparecimento de empresas categorizadas como “Born Globals”, focadas no digital. Esta nova classe de empresas ataca diversos mercados internacionais desde o momento da sua criação. Isto põe em causa os modelos clássicos de expansão a novos mercados, como a escola de Uppsala, que vêm a internacionalização como um processo essencialmente incremental. O objetivo desta dissertação passa por compreender como podem as empresas de Marketing Digital Portuguesas seguir um processo de internacionalização sustentável. O foco da pesquisa está no início da atividade internacional e pretende criar um modelo capaz de descrever o processo de internacionalização ideal, tendo em conta as particularidades da indústria. De modo a atingir o objetivo proposto, foi seguido um formato de estudo de caso onde elementos chave da estrutura de duas empresas de Marketing Digital foram entrevistados. Com o intuito de triangular informação, dados financeiros das operações nos primeiros países onde uma das empresas começou a sua atividade internacional foram igualmente analisados. Os resultados obtidos evidenciam que as agências de Marketing Digital Portuguesas devem seguir um modelo híbrido de internacionalização, com características dos diferentes modelos apresentados. Agências que pretendam começar o seu processo de internacionalização deverão ter o maior cuidado na seleção e avaliação da sua rede de contactos, de forma a encontrar o parceiro ideal com quem trabalhar em conjunto, tal como efetuar uma extensa análise estratégica em relação ao país no qual pretendem entrar. A análise estratégica deve avaliar os países tendo em conta a sua distância cultural, administrativa, geográfica, económica e digital em relação ao país de origem. O conhecimento do mercado e a alocação de recursos devem ser geridos de forma a reduzir a incerteza e o risco. Os modos de entrada para o início de uma atividade internacional nos diferentes mercados devem ser caracterizados por um nível médio de controlo das operações e uma modesta alocação de recursos. Devem ainda definir como prioridade o investimento na área comercial do país de destino, para que a empresa atinja a sustentabilidade e continue o seu processo de entrada em novos mercados.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
Ce mémoire présente une réflexion critique sur différentes représentations des religions traditionnelles africaines (RTA) au sein de réseaux régionaux et disciplinaires africains et occidentaux.
Dans un premier temps, plusieurs formes de représentations (cartographiques et graphiques) issues de milieux universitaires occidentaux sont explorées pour comparer le traitement des RTA. Cette exploration soulève le problème des catégorisations employées qui ne rendent pas compte de la diversité, du dynamisme, de la complexité et de l’importance des RTA; et de manière plus générale, cette analyse révèle un problème sur le plan de l’équité dans les représentations des religions du monde. À l’aide d’une analyse conceptuelle, un certain nombre de catégories utilisées pour définir les RTA, notamment celle de « religion ethnique », sont remises en question, tout comme la notion de religion du monde (world religion).
Dans un deuxième temps, les stratégies de recherche utilisées pour retracer des réseaux de chercheurs africains sont présentées. Différents outils et ressources documentaires occidentaux sont analysés et évalués selon qu’ils donnent accès ou non à la production de chercheurs africains sur les RTA. L’analyse de ces documents, laquelle est inspirée d’une démarche d’analyse de discours, révèle à quel point la contribution des chercheurs africains est peu prise en compte à l’intérieur du corpus sélectionné. Or, l’exploration de la situation actuelle de l’enseignement et de la recherche sur les RTA dans certaines universités du Nigéria met en lumière la somme importante de travaux sur les RTA et la diversité des canaux de communication.
En somme, ce mémoire démontre à quel point le savoir est localisé et lié aux ancrages culturels, disciplinaires et idéologiques des chercheurs. Il ouvre, à partir de l’analyse de textes africains, sur la question plus large de la difficulté de la représentation de l’unité et des particularismes des RTA.This thesis provides a critical analysis of several different representations of African Traditional Religions (ATR) as found within a number of regional and disciplinary networks in Western and African countries. First, numerous means of representation (geographical maps and graphics) from different western scientific media were used to examine different ways in which ATR are represented. This analysis reveals that the categorization systems employed in these media to represent ATR do not reflect the variety, vitality, complexity and significance of ATR; and, on a more general level, reveals a lack of equity in the representations of different world religions. A conceptual analysis puts into question a number of categories (e.g. “ethnic religion”) used to define ATR as well as the notion of world religion. Second, the research strategies that were used to identify African research networks are presented. Several different Western tools and documentary resources (Database, encyclopedic articles, etc) were evaluated on their usage and citations of African research on ATR. This analysis, which was drawn from a qualitative discourse analysis approach, highlights the limited importance that is given to African researchers. In contrast, our evaluation of RTA-related education and research in Nigerian universities reveals an enormous amount of RTA-related research as well as a diversity of communication channels. On a more general level, this thesis demonstrates the extent to which knowledge is localized and linked to the cultural, disciplinary, and ideological presuppositions of researchers, and, from the analysis of African documents, opens to the larger question of the difficulty to represent the unity and specificities of ATR.

Due to the interconnectedness of our world and the ubiquitous presence of technology, it is imperative that students be introduced to and be actively involved in cross-cultural activities. Generation Z (Gen Z) students have been raised with computer-based technology; and as a result, they are cognizant of social and global issues that transcend borders and require collaborative solutions. Collaborative Online International Learning (COIL) and other virtual exchange programs provide students with the opportunity to engage in real conversations and problem solving with students from other countries. Students connect asynchronously and/or synchronously to discuss, analyze, and solve problems together. Simplified short-term projects also have relevance as they provide the opportunity for communication leading to empathy and awareness of social and economic injustices around the world. While study abroad is considered a traditional method of introducing students to other cultures, most students do not have the time nor the financing to be able to travel. However, today virtual exchange empowered by technology is a viable, sustainable method. In this contribution, examples of tasks, activities, technologies, and challenges resulting from various collaborations around the globe, in particular with Morocco, Iraq, and China, are highlighted. Through these collaborations, students established personal connections and shared responsibility in addressing local and global concerns. All of the collaborations underscore the value of virtual exchange activities, transcontinental partnerships, and collective action. The global pandemic has fostered the opportunity to explore more of these enriching exchanges.

Globalisation has altered the conditions of work and learning in Europe. Many European countries specialise in non-offshorable, knowledge- and skill-intensive tasks which require a highly educated workforce that is able to interact in global settings. European Higher Education Institutions (HEI) face the challenge of meeting the increased demand for skills of globalised work environments. In order to do this, HEI need to adapt their educational concepts. This involves promoting internationalisation, entrepreneurial and innovation skills. This paper aims to develop an educational framework for boosting student and staff employability at European HEI. It further adds to the practical dimension of HEI internationalisation, entrepreneurship education and innovation pedagogy by presenting an example how these interrelated concepts can be integrated into the curricula of HEI. At the methodological level this implies broadening traditional content-focused curricula and making use of active teaching methods that foster deep learning, best acquired in real work situations. Taking internationalisation serious further entails building up virtual learning networks and tapping the full potential of e-learning.

Testo completoAbstract (sommario):
TThe aim of this paper is to offer an overview of how an EMI (English as a Medium of Instruction) programme was designed at the University of A Coruña (Spain) to implement courses taught in English by its teaching staff. The final goals of this initiative were twofold: to attract an increasing number of foreign students through mobility or as new admissions; and to promote internationalisation at home for both students and lecturers. Some of the steps taken in this process (from coaching to EMI) are explained as well as the principles on which a particular teaching methodology for non-native speakers of English is based. Content knowledge and a B2 level of English is presupposed, but a further level of teacher professionalism is aspired to, involving commitment, reflection, responsibility. A shift in focus, from teacher- to student-centred learning is required. Instructors should show their students how to learn and guide them along their learning paths. This implies a shift in the original mindset that is strongly rooted in particular teaching traditions. Communicative competence is also a key factor: knowing how to transmit and communicate is at least as important as the material content itself, and lecturers should be good communicators.
