Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: Germany is Russia s biggest trade partner. According to Russian official statistics, Russia imported 8.1% from and exported 13.4% to Germany in 2006. For Germany, Russia ranks eighth in overall trade volume, with exports about 23 Billion Euro and imports about 30 Billion Euro. Due to high prices for oil and gas, which amount for roughly 60% of Russian exports, the statistics indicates a negative trade balance for Germany since 2003. Germany is Russia s oldest trade partner, as well. No other West-European country has the same history of cultural, social and economical exchange with Russia as Germany does. The very term `German ́ in Russian language was century long the word for all `foreigners ́. Having left behind a century of forced antagonism, both countries are nowadays converging steadily. Today, the Russo-German trade relationships become more and more important for both countries. This paper focuses on the strategies German companies pursue on the Russian market. The fundamental question is empirical in nature: What have German companies done in Russia? . The ultimate aim, however, is to gain empirical evidence for theoretical reasoning: What should German companies do in Russia? . The paper consists of three parts. The first part gives a brief overview over Russo-German trade relations and Direct Foreign Investment. The Second part describes the legal, social and cultural environment in Russia and how German companies cope with it. The third part focuses on their strategy in response to their aims and to the environment.

In a time when everyone talks about Russia as an emerging market with huge possibilities, many German companies tried to enter. What have been their experiences? Which was their strategy to enter the market? Did they succeed? The present study is primarily based on first hand accounts. After a comprehensive overview on the economical, legal and social framework in Russia, the author summarizes the result of 23 extensive interview with decision makers from German companies.
Based on face to face interviews with decision makers of 16 German firms Michael Klug analyses the applied strategy and the motivation for market entry. He investigates different strategy theories for their suitability to explain the firms' strategy abroad and discusses the operational design including forms of market presence and marketing mix to realise a chosen strategy.
Inhaltsangabe:Abstract: When investment businesses decide on pursuing a course of market penetration into CIS countries, there is unfortunately now prescribed way for them to follow. They have to plan and implement their entry into the international market according to criteria which they themselves have decided on. They have to ask themselves several questions. Why are we planning to invest in a foreign country? What are our motives and goals with regard to market penetration? In which country we will invest? Which countries should be penetrated first? When will this process begin? Which forms of market penetration should we chose? The main objective of this study is to identify success factors for market penetration with regard to CIS countries. The model for investment businesses is used to define possible entry strategies into the CIS markets, and to analyse these theoretically and empirically. This paper looks closely at investment possibilities in Russia and in three of the CIS countries: the Ukraine, Moldavia and the Republic of Belarus. This study examines the experiences of 26 companies who have penetrated the markets in CIS countries.

Maren Hagemeister examines how institutions influence foreign firms ́ market entry decisions and subsidiary performance in Russian regions. In an empirical study the author analyses the market entries of a sample of European Union firms in the Russian federal districts between 2005 and 2013. The thesis advances prior research with its sub-national perspective on institutions and the use of the thus far underutilized Business Environment and Enterprise Performance Survey (BEEPS) to derive regional data. The findings indicate that within-country differences can significantly affect foreign companies ́ entry mode and success on a local market.
Since the collapse of the Soviet Union, Russia has developed a powerful business community and a potent network of transnational organized groups. Russian Business Power explores the powerful impact these new actors are having on the evolution of the Russian state and its foreign behaviour. Unlike other books, which focus either on Russia's foreign and security policy, or on the evolution of Russian business, legal and illegal, within the context of Russia's domestic transition, this book considers how far Russia's foreign and security policy is shaped by business. It considers a wide range of issues, including energy, the arms trade, international drug flows, and human trafficking, and examines the impact of Russian business in Russia's dealings with Western and Eastern Europe, the Caspian, the Caucasus and the Far East.
As the global economy continues to develop and new entrepreneurs take advantage of emerging markets, the small business sector plays a greater role of economic development in the international arena. The Handbook of Research on Strategic Management in Small and Medium Enterprises contributes new research to the current array of literature on small business management under diverse geographic, economic, and socio-cultural conditions. By exploring existing theories in tandem with fresh viewpoints, this book will serve as a valuable reference to students, lecturers, researchers, entrepreneurs, and policy makers investigating the use of strategic management in various scenarios and situations.
Huawei Goes Global provides a much-needed, comprehensive, and scholarly examination of the business environment and the striving global operations of China’s technology giant. With theoretical research, case studies, data analysis, and empirical studies, this two-volume work tells a fascinating story of internationalization in an emerging economy. As one of the most powerful Chinese companies in the global economy, the largest global telecommunications-equipment producer and a leading consumer-electronics manufacturer, Huawei is a great example of the globalization of the Chinese enterprises in the twenty-first century. In Volume I, scholars critically examine the rise of Huawei as a Chinese global enterprise from the political economy and public policy perspectives, as well as Huawei’s development strategies, innovations, and talent management. In Volume II, multiple authors carefully study the growth of Huawei from regional and geopolitical perspectives, and its corporate communication and crisis management. Within the framework of the trade conflicts between China and the US, controversies over economic sanctions, intellectual-property disputes, and espionage and cyber security concerns, this groundbreaking work makes an important contribution to both academic literature and the ongoing public discourse on Huawei.
