Abstract

Pressures to globalize are increasing. Business models that develop on the Web tend to be global, and Internet models benefit from increases of scale. Companies occupied with other issues may regard globalization as an option rather than an imperative, but waiting could be costly. Putting globalization off gives competitors a chance to establish themselves first. An important thing to consider before going global is 'cross-border scalability.' By this is meant the financial and managerial resources needed to enter a new market elsewhere in the world. companies that deal in information have less need for local infrrastructures than companies that deal in physical goods.

A firm's mainstream customer orientation has a significant, positive impact on the radicalness dimension, but a significant, negative impact on the disruptive dimension.
