Abstract(s)
The present report is entrenched in the curricular internship carried out in the company INDICE ICT & MANAGEMENT, LDA in the city of Leiria. The aim of this report is the finalization of the Master’s in International Business. The main activity of the company is based in the execution and monitoring of investment projects for the entrepreneurial sector, namely through the support of the granting of European funds.
The internship comprised 1040 hours, I developed activities related with the elaboration of investment projects for companies, whose main focus is the international path. The execution of this internship allowed me to apply the knowledge assimilated previously. Furthermore, the internship allowed the acquisition of new knowledge, through ideas sharing, undoubtedly resulting on an enriched experience.
When following an international pathway, all firms can benefit from a rewarding experience, besides increasing their competitiveness, boosting of national economy in the marketplace.
Considering the small domestic market, companies are obliged to take the international path. Nevertheless, this global process is not straightforward, and it presupposes a set of boundaries that need to be surpassed. Recently, national governments have had some influence in the internationalisation process of firms, resulting in the most feasible investment solutions.
The current internship report intends to clarify what are the constraints experienced linked to the global sphere for the multinational firms, but also for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs). Additionally, this report intends to understand the way national politics contribute to the success of the overseas investment.
