Resumo

El presente trabajo acomete una revisión de la literatura sobre el conocimiento necesario para la internacionalización de la pyme mediante inversión directa en el exterior. En concreto, analiza la influencia que tal conocimiento tiene en la elección de la localización, del modo de entrada, y en los resultados derivados de la inversión directa en el extranjero. Como resultado, se aporta un modelo descriptivo de la naturaleza y alcance de la relación existente entre conocimiento para la internacionalización e inversión exterior de la pyme.
