This thesis analyses Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) by companies from north-eastern Italy in Brasile, combining key theoretical models with an examination of internationalization strategies and regional dynamics. Within this framework, the research assesses the macroeconomic impact of FDI and the prospects associated with the EU-MERCOSUR agreement. Through an empirical study conducted on a local company, the research demonstrates how direct market presence and the support of the “Sistema-Italia” are key factors for the competitiveness of north-eastern SMEs in a complex environment such as Brazil.
Questa tesi rappresenta un’analisi degli Investimenti Diretti Esteri (IDE) delle imprese del Nord-Est italiano in Brasile, coniugando i principali modelli teorici con l’indagine delle strategie di internazionalizzazione e delle dinamiche territoriali. In questo quadro, la ricerca valuta l’impatto macroeconomico degli IDE e le prospettive legate all’accordo UE-MERCOSUR. Mediante l’indagine empirica condotta su un’azienda locale, lo studio dimostra come il presidio diretto del mercato e il supporto del Sistema-Italia, rappresentino fattori determinanti per la competitività delle PMI nordestine in un contesto complesso come quello brasiliano.

This thesis analyses Foreign Direct Investments (FDI) by companies from north-eastern Italy in Brasile, combining key theoretical models with an examination of internationalization strategies and regional dynamics. Within this framework, the research assesses the macroeconomic impact of FDI and the prospects associated with the EU-MERCOSUR agreement. Through an empirical study conducted on a local company, the research demonstrates how direct market presence and the support of the “Sistema-Italia” are key factors for the competitiveness of north-eastern SMEs in a complex environment such as Brazil.| File | Dimensione | Formato | |
