Dear colleagues An exciting opportunity to contribute to an upcoming special issue in the field of internationalisation and entrepreneurial processes.

Whether you are an established scholar or an emerging researcher, we invite you to submit your work to this special issue to contribute to our collective understanding of this vital area of study. Key themes of interest include, but are not limited to: * International entrepreneurship in diverse contexts * The role of technology and innovation in internationalisation * SME internationalisation strategies * Entrepreneurial networks and their impact on regional growth * Risk analysis and management in the context of internationalisation * Internationalisation and sustainability We encourage submissions that offer theoretical insights, empirical research, and practical implications.
