摘要
With the aim of bridging the gap between the firm's internationalization speed research and the emerging study of business intelligence (BI), this study draws on knowledge transformation as the theoretical lens for exploring how business intelligence leverages organizational agility to promote the speed of internationalization. By analyzing data collected from 258 Chinese firms in the Yangtze River Delta area, we conclude that (1) Business intelligence has a significant influence on the speed of internationalization, and the organizational agility positively mediates such causal relationship. (2) Cultural distance negatively moderates the relation between organizational agility and speed of internationalization. The managerial implications of these findings and future research directions regarding the firm's internationalization speed are discussed.
