Overview: The spread, speed and intensity of the growth of emerging market multinational enterprises (EMMNEs), especially from Asia, and their impact on international business have caught researchers by surprise. The current focus on EMMNEs represents new thinking in terms of the motives, opportunities and constraints behind their internationalization in a multi-polar and flatter world. A key issue for researchers and practitioners is to understand the ways in which EMMNEs are distinctive and different from MNEs from developed countries. India does not fit neatly into the existing institutional or cultural boxes that we have available to us. Thus, it is interesting to find out if there is a distinctive “India Way” articulated by senior Indian corporate leaders. With chapters from leading scholars in the field of international business, Emerging Indian Multinationals throws light on the characteristics, concerns, challenges, and strategies of Indian multinationals from an emerging-market perspective to facilitate crossvergence of best practices for all multinationals in a multipolar world.
