The purpose of this thesis was to find out the main differences between the Finnish and Colombian business market and national culture and provide information for Finnish companies interested on expanding their business processes to Colombia. The thesis focuses on finding out how different cultural and environmental factors influence the internationalization process of Finnish companies doing business in Colombia. The thesis uses qualitative research method and data was collected through an interview with the representative of the case company Finca Las Ventanas. The purpose of the interview was to get an insight of the current business environment and national culture of Colombia and what challenges and possibilities are there and what should be taken into consideration when conducting a business in Colombia. A single case company Finca Las Ventanas was interviewed to provide and insight on the effects of national culture and business environment of Colombia and their differences compared to Finnish business environment and national culture. The main theory of the thesis consisted of two main themes, where the national culture of Colombia and Finland were studied through the theory of Geert Hofstede’s research on national culture and the business environment of Colombia was studied through the PESTLE model. Finnish business environment was not addressed through the PESTLE model. The main findings of the study were that there are similarities with the Colombian and Finnish business markets and certain legal and security questions need to be addressed properly when entering the Colombian markets. In conclusion we can state that each company is an individual of their own kind and business environments are not strictly tied to a particular culture and nation. Colombia is a great investment point for companies and provides new possibilities for foreign companies interested on investing to Colombia. Based on the research future studies should be placed in relation to smaller companies that function in Colombia. |
