This essay testifies the relationship model of the international entrepreneurial orientation (IEO) and international performance (IP) of the born global enterprises from the view of dynamic coupling of network relationship (NR) and learning orientation (LO).We get three important conclusions from the research: (1) NR and LO both have a positive influence to the IEO and IP of the born global enterprises, moreover, the evolution characteristics shapes the 3-d inverted-u and positive relationships between NR\\LO and IEO respectively; (2) IEO of born global enterprises experiences three stages which are determined by the dynamic coupling of NR and LO; (3) IEO has positive influence to IP of born global enterprises. SMEs which tend to construct new international pattern to improve IP will benefit from this essay.
