Abstract:

    With the rapid development of emerging technologies such as intelligent manufacturing, mobile and industrial internet, big data analysis, the threshold for international entrepreneurial enterprises (IEE) to enter the international market continues to decrease. However, in the face of high uncertainty, complexity and risk in the international market, IEE are easy to encounter setbacks or even failures in a certain geographical region. But, those start-ups with entrepreneurial resilience can calmly face the failure, cheer up again and continue to carry out entrepreneurial activities. Therefore, the introduction of entrepreneurial resilience into the field of international entrepreneurship provides a new idea or perspective on how to deal with the setbacks or failures encountered by IEE.

     Following the principles of importance, representativeness and typicality, this paper chooses Jinpeng international entrepreneurial process as the object of case study, and uses the exploratory single case study method to clarify the formation process and growth mechanism of international entrepreneurial resilience. Based on the carding and analysis of the current research, this work analyzed and constructed the growth mechanism of international entrepreneurial resilience through second-hand data, field investigation, semi-structured interviews and other relevant data.

     The main findings are: (1) International entrepreneurial resilience includes international entrepreneurial capability, crisis control, acceptance of change, international market confidence and spiritual influences of organization. (2) International entrepreneurial resilience shows different characteristics in different stages of IEE development, which in turn goes through the international entrepreneurial resilience dominated by capability, confidence and coping-mechanism.

     The theoretical contributions of this study are as follows: (1) International entrepreneurial resilience means that, in the process of value creation with international entrepreneurial opportunities as the core, IEE predict and control the changes, crises and risks in the international market on prior international experience. And after the IEE encounter setbacks or even failures, international entrepreneurial resilience enables IEE to reinvigorate their vitality and devote themselves to the capability and process in the next stage of international entrepreneurial activities. (2) International entrepreneurial resilience is a complex construction process of dynamic evolution, which grows and matures with the development of IEE. (3) The IEE change the focus of international entrepreneurial resilience at the current stage through international entrepreneurial learning and accumulation of international entrepreneurial experience, so as to make the IEE focus on the obstacles, setbacks or even failures encountered at the current stage. And through the attitude and behavior of the international entrepreneurial team, the IEE could rationally face the events they encounter, and expand the international market with tenacious quality and continuous motivation. This above three theoretical contributions reveal international entrepreneurial resilience is a highly complex and abstract construct, which shows the certain dynamic with the development of IEE and the change of external environment.
