Business globalisation

Globalisation (or globalization) describes a process by which regional economies, societies, and cultures have become integrated through a global network of communication, transportation, and trade.

Globalisation usually refers to economic globalization: the integration of national economies into the international economy through trade, foreign direct investment, capital flows, migration, and the spread of technology. The term can also refer to the transnational circulation of ideas, languages, or popular culture through acculturation.

Globalisation impacts businesses in a multitude of ways but little research has actually been devoted to “Business Globalisation” which specifically relates to how businesses take into account globalisation into their strategies, structures and operations. ACTIOM conducted some complementary research and came up with a large set of insights on how companies make decisions about their international footprint and on what challenges they most often face

To help address the business globalisation challenges, ACTIOM has created a “Business Globalisation Framework (BGF)”, a collaborative approach for optimising the opportunities and risks presented by globalisation.
