초록

본 연구는 우리나라 해외진출 중소기업을 대상으로 국제화 속도와 국제화 범위가 성과에 미치는 영향을 규명한다. 실증분석을 통해 해외시장에 최초 진출하는 시간관점의 국제화 속도와 해외시장 진출 이후 지리적 관점의 국제화 범위는 모두 국제화 성과에 유의한 정(+)의 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다. 이는 해외시장에 빠르게 진출할수록, 해외진출 국가의 범위가 넓어질수록 성과에 긍정적인 영향이 있음을 의미한다. 또한 국제화 범위가 국제화 속도보다 국제화 성과에 유의하게 더 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 분석되었다. 해외시장 최초 진출 속도도 중요하지만 진출이후 해외진출 국가의 지리적 범위의 단계적인 확대가 성과에 의미가 있음을 시사한다. 또한, 경영자의 해외시장에서 비즈니스 경험의 특성은 국제화 범위와 국제화 성과의 관계를 강화시키는 조절효과가 확인되었다. 결론적으로 자원과 역량이 상대적으로 부족한 중소기업의 국제화 과정에서 경영자의 글로벌지향성과 함께 해외시장으로의 빠른 진출 속도와 함께 진출이후의 범위의 균형적인 관리가 필요함을 의미한다.

This study investigates the effect of internationalization speed and scope on the performance in Korean SMEs. Through empirical regression analysis, the following results were identified. both the time-based speed of internationalization and the scope of internationalization by a geographical perspective have significant positive impacts on international performance. This implies that the earlier and wider in global market expansion, the more positive the effect on performance. It was also confirmed that the scope has a significantly greater effect on international performance than speed, which suggests that the geographical national scope is more meaningful for international performance than the initial foreign market entry speed. In addition, the characteristics of the CEO's international experience strengthened the positive relationship between internationalization speed and performance. In conclusion, it means that the internationalization speed and the scope after foreign market entry should be managed in a balanced way to enhance the level of SMEs internationalization.
