The objective of the paper is to find out what is the psycho-graphic distance between China and Western Balkan countries. The main finding is that China is generally a much desired partner, but the knowledge of the country is extremely limited and based on various stereotypes. This may lead to problems in business cooperation of Western Balkan countries with China.

COBISS.SI-ID: 22926822The paper explores the first-time internationalisation strategy and discusses whether firms could actually begin internationalisation at home without crossing the border by approaching the international expatriates’ community in the home city/market. An example of a public company from the creative industry in the capital city from the Central and Eastern European region is studied. The expatriates’ community, so far often neglected market segment, has a rising potential in several European cites. The case study results highlight a positive impact on performance after approaching the expatriates’ community. Organisational learning effects result in improved and stabilised sales and strengthened firm-specific advantages. Internationalisation at home is disruptive innovation, especially appropriate for enterprises under high resource constraints. Internationalisation at home extends the existing understanding of internationalisation; The findings that firms could begin the organisational learning process of internationalisation before or even without the first foreign entry and proposals for the integrating expatriates’ community into the marketing strategy may influence future internationalisation paths.
