Description
This study explored the pre-export behaviour of Chinese family owned medium-sized enterprises (FMEs) based on a sample of twelve medical enterprises. It investigated the influence of Chinese 'guanxi' networks ('social relationships or personal network') on the pre-export behaviour of FMEs, and the specific resources and knowledge the 'guanxi' networks provide such firms to facilitate their internationalization process.

These databases contain citations from different subsets of available publications and different time periods and thus the citation count from each is usually different. Some works are not in either database and no count is displayed. Scopus includes citations from articles published in 1996 onwards, and Web of Science® generally from 1980 onwards.
Citations counts from the Google Scholar™ indexing service can be viewed at the linked Google Scholar™ search.
