Abstract
Presents the findings of a comparative study into the export behaviour and internationalization of small computer software firms in Finland, Ireland and Norway. These findings challenge many of the underlying assumptions of conventional internationalization “stage” theories and lead to the conclusion that such theories do not adequately reflect the internationalization process among small computer software firms.Keywords
