See Powerpoint Presentation www.slideshare.net/DonnaZeller1 Current data, from sources such as the Wells Fargo International Business Indicator, identify that understanding 'doing business' in another country will gain importance.

The purpose is to identify the strategies that contribute to their successes / failures in this effort.
