| Summary: | 碩士 === 國立成功大學 === 企業管理學系碩博士班 === 100 === Most of born-global firms from Asian emerging markets are latecomers, which means they lack resource and managerial skill. In addition, the economic positions of Asian emerging countries are becoming more and more important in the world. Therefore, lots of born-global firms from Asian emerging markets just mainly involve Asian (regional) markets when internationalizing. However, the study regarding the regional born-global firms’ growth drivers and patterns still remains to be examined. So this study selected 84 Taiwanese high-tech firms from 2007 to 2010 as research sample and discussed the relationship between the growth drivers this study proposed, including degree of internationalization, network relationship, learning capacity, firm size, output flexibility, R＆D intensity and integration of value chain, and firms’ performance.
The main empirical findings are as follows: First of all, the relationship between learning capacity and firms’ performance is U-shaped curve. Secondly, the enlarging firm size and flexibility with change of firms’ output have positive effects on firms’ performance. Thirdly, if regional born-global firms just focus on a few value activities they are familiar with, they will have better performance.
