The current study uses a qualitative case studies approach. The main form of data collection was personal interviews with predominantly managing directors, chief executive officers, export managers, and marketing managers. Our findings suggest that some components of the EO construct reflected by all of the cases are tools to exploit, maintain, and reach foreign markets. The network relationships become a vital component of the entrepreneurial traits reflected by each case.Este artículo examina la dinámica que se desarrolla entre las principales características del constructo Orientación Empresarial (OE) –autonomía, innovación, propensión al riesgo y agresividad competitiva– y las relaciones de redes en el proceso de expansión internacional de un negocio. Este estudio emplea el enfoque cualitativo de estudio de casos como metodología. La principal fuente de recopilación de datos fue la entrevista personal con gerentes, directores, gerentes de mercadeo y de exportaciones. Nuestros hallazgos sugieren que algunos componentes del constructo OE reflejados por todos los casos constituyen herramientas para desarrollar, mantener y alcanzar mercados foráneos. Las relaciones de redes se convierten en un componente vital de las características emprendedoras reflejadas por cada caso.text/htmlengUniversidad EAFIThttp://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/administer/article/view/1727http://publicaciones.eafit.edu.co/index.php/administer/article/view/1727Copyright © 2012 Karen L OrengoAcceso abiertohttp://purl.org/coar/access_right/c_abf2instname:Universidad EAFITreponame:Repositorio Institucional Universidad EAFITAD-minister: No 21 (2012)Internationalization and Entrepreneurial Orientation.
