Emerging Markets are countries that are restructuring their economies along market-oriented lines and offer a wealth of opportunities in trade, technology transfers, and foreign direct investment. This course analyzes the attractiveness and riskiness of international markets with a special focus on Emerging Markets. International marketing decisions studied include orientation towards international marketing in terms of mode of entry, appropriate organization for international expansion, and degree of adaptation/standardization of marketing mix elements for each target market.
