The use of digital technologies presents new opportunities for SMEs to expand and succeed in foreign markets. The purpose of this paper is to investigate how the impact of digital technologies on the internationalization process of SMEs has been acknowledged in the literature. It offers an in-depth analysis of five of the most highly relevant recent scientific research papers. The findings are synthetized through key points that highlight how SMEs acting in foreign markets could benefit from digital technologies. This paper complements previous research on the international trade transition initiated by digital technologies and provides a new perspective on contemporary research regarding the internationalization of firms. It concludes by identifying implications for research by scholars seeking to further study the digital aspects of traditional theoretical models of internationalization.10adigital entrepreneurship10adigital technologies10adigitalization10ainternational business10ainternationalization10aSMEs.1 aHervé, Annaële1 aSchmitt, Christophe1 aBaldegger, Rico  utimreview.ca/article/137302499nas a2200277   4500008004100000022001400041245010800055210006900163260004200232300001000274490000600284520159900290653002801889653002601917653002101943653002101964653002701985653003502012653002902047653002102076653001302097653002202110100002102132700003002153856003802183       2018                        eng d  a1927-032100aImpact of Business Intelligence Solutions on Export Performance of Software Firms in Emerging Economies0 aImpact of Business Intelligence Solutions on Export Performance   aOttawabTalent First Networkc09/2018  a39-490 v83 aThe article is written with the aim of understanding how well software firms in emerging economies perform when exporting their goods. Focusing on Paraguay as a representative context, a multiple-case-study research design was adopted using different sources of evidence, including 15 in-depth interviews with founders, shareholders, and CEOs. The data were analyzed using grounded theory in order to develop patterns and categories, and to understand differences and regularities. The revised Uppsala internationalization process model was used as a theoretical framework. This article highlights the experts’ views of the impact of business intelligence on the export performance of software firms in Paraguay. Although only a few of the interviewees currently use business intelligence solutions to support international strategic decision-making processes, most of them reveal a desire to use them because they expect it will have a positive impact on export performance and international competitiveness. The main factors for selecting a business intelligence solution are transparency of cost and benefits, excellent client service, and an attractive pricing model. The study results apply to all stakeholders who support the impact of business intelligence systems on the export performance of software firms in emerging economies. The article fulfils an identified need and call for research to study the use and impact of business intelligence on the way an emerging country’s exportation of goods actually performs, and the ability of its software firms to globalize successfully.10aartificial intelligence10abusiness intelligence10aemerging markets10aglobal marketing10ainternational business10ainternational entrepreneurship10ainternational management10amachine learning10aParaguay10asoftware industry1 aNeubert, Michael1 aVan der Krogt, Augustinus  uhttps://timreview.ca/article/118502640nas a2200265   4500008004100000022001400041245009400055210006900149260004200218300001000260490000600270520177400276653002802050653002302078653001902101653002102120653002702141653003902168653003502207653002902242653002402271653002102295100002102316856003702337       2018                        eng d  a1927-032100aThe Impact of Digitalization on the Speed of Internationalization of Lean Global Startups0 aImpact of Digitalization on the Speed of Internationalization of  aOttawabTalent First Networkc05/2018  a44-540 v83 aLean global startups need to internationalize early and fast. The digitalization of new foreign market development helps them to more efficiently identify new market opportunities in global markets. With this approach, they are saving resources while developing the most attractive markets. This article examines how lean global startups develop new foreign markets more rapidly due to digitalization. Thus, the aim is to understand the impact of digitalization on speed of internationalization of lean global startups. The study addresses a gap in the scholarly literature and a practical need to evaluate new foreign markets and business opportunities more quickly and more regularly and to understand what helps lean global startups react more quickly to opportunities and threats with respect to changing market attractiveness. Furthermore, it outlines why and how digitalization is important throughout the internationalization process. The research followed a multiple case-study design using different sources of evidence, including 73 interviews with senior managers of lean global startups. The findings reveal that digitalization allows lean global startups to increase decision-making efficiency and to optimize strategies and processes for evaluating international markets. The findings suggest that lean global startups can benefit from the use of digital technologies by applying a more efficient foreign market development process with regular reviews and a reduced workflow, by faster mediation between local market realities and strategic goals, by analyzing all foreign markets instead of just a sample of them, and by optimizing decision-making processes including the ability to make long-term, strategic decisions due to better market information. 10aartificial intelligence10abig data analytics10adigitalization10aglobal marketing10ainternational business10ainternational business development10ainternational entrepreneurship10ainternational management10alean global startup10amachine learning1 aNeubert, Michael  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/115800795nas a2200229   4500008004100000022001400041245012800055210006900183260004200252300001000294490000600304653001600310653001600326653002700342653003500369653003100404653002500435653002900460100002100489700001800510856003700528       2017                        eng d  a1927-032100aInitiating a New Research Phase in the Field of International Entrepreneurship: An Interview with Professor Nicole Coviello0 aInitiating a New Research Phase in the Field of International En  aOttawabTalent First Networkc05/2017  a52-560 v710aborn global10adefinitions10ainternational business10ainternational entrepreneurship10ainternational new ventures10ainternationalization10alean and global startups1 aCoviello, Nicole1 aTanev, Stoyan  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/107700626nas a2200217   4500008003900000022001400039245005200053210004900105260004200154300000800196490000600204653002900210653001800239653002700257653001300284653002100297100001800318700001800336700001800354856003600372       2012                          d  a1927-032100aEditorial: Global Business Creation (June 2012)0 aEditorial Global Business Creation June 2012  aOttawabTalent First Networkc06/2012  a3-50 v210aglobal business creation10aglobalization10ainternational business10astartups10aventure creation1 aMcPhee, Chris1 aSeppä, Marko1 aTanev, Stoyan  uhttp://timreview.ca/article/56101200nas a2200181   4500008003900000022001400039245009300053210006900146260004200215300000800257490000600265520061800271653001600889653002700905653003200932100001800964856003600982       2012                          d  a1927-032100aGlobal from the Start: The Characteristics of Born-Global Firms in the Technology Sector0 aGlobal from the Start The Characteristics of BornGlobal Firms in  aOttawabTalent First Networkc03/2012  a5-80 v23 aThis article provides insights from recent research on firms that are "born global".
