Emerging Asian Economies and MNCs Strategies

In 12 papers revised from presentations at the International Euro-Asian Research Conference, held in Yokohama during May and June 2014, economists and business scholars focus on emerging Asian economies as the apparent key drivers of global economic growth because they present multinational traders and investors with unparalleled market opportunities given demographic change and a middle class with increasing discretionary income. Their topics include emerging Asian economies and multinational corporation strategies: a review of the literature, selected Asian countries and the food supply chain, multinational corporate offshore research and development co-location strategies: comparing Western and Asian businesses in China, expatriation policies of Chinese emerging multinational corporations, and innovation performance in the small and medium enterprises of India: evidence from the food processing industry.
