Abstract

This study proposes a moderated mediating framework to describe the relationships among international diversification, technological capability, market orientation and emerging market multinational enterprises' new product performance. Within this framework, emerging market multinational enterprises' technological capabilities mediate the impact of internationalization on new product performance. This mediating effect is more salient for firms entering more developed markets than those entering less developed markets. Analysis of a sample of Chinese multinationals' internationalization process supports these relationships.
