An explanation of firms’ internationalisation modes, blending firm heterogeneity and spatial agglomeration : microevidence from Italy
Firm ; Firm strategy ; Internationalization ; Italy ; Productivity
This paper uses a large sample of Italian manufacturing firms over the period 2004–06, to investigate whether localisation economies and related variety affect firms’ internationalisation choices. The results show that the higher the firm’s
productivity level, the higher the probability it will engage in more complex modes of internationalisation and that localisation economies and related variety positively affect export but not the firm’s multinational strategy.

Human capital in firms and regions : impact on firm productivity

Human capital in firms and regions : impact on firm productivity
Educational level ; Firm ; Producer services ; Productivity ; Professional qualification ; Sweden
This paper analyses the importance of human capital for firm productivity and makes a clear distinction between the role of human capital inside and outside of the firm. A multilevel model is used for the business service sector in Sweden
controlling for heterogeneity across the industry and municipal level. Human capital in firms in terms of education, experience, and cognitive skills and the firm's overall access to human capital has a positive impact on firm productivity. In addition, firm
attributes explain the largest proportion of firm productivity variance.

This article studies how the level of trade costs and the intensity of competition interact to explain the nature and intensity of trade within a given industry and the location of firms across countries. By exploring the intensive and extensive
margins of exports, it investigates how the intensity of trade reacts to the degree of competitiveness. Furthermore, when firms are free to change location, they flow from the small to the large country, and the larger country is always a net exported
on the manufactured good. Firms located in the big country have a bigger size than those located in the small one. Under one-way trade, the relocation of firms changes their attitude toward export.

Geography of outsourcing : business service provisions among firms in Norway
The paper examines how business service provision partly relies on user firms' internal resources, strategies and location depending on what can be obtained locally or is feasible to import elsewhere. Empirical evidence from small- and medium-sized
firms in three manufacturing industries in Norway shows that strategies searching for suitable suppliers can be divided into different categories.
