A comparison of entrepreneurial culture in Germany and China
- Progressive globalization and an interdependent network of international projects increase the importance of analyzing entrepreneurial cultures. Among the most important cooperations between Europe and Asia are the economic interactions between Germany and China, which are the regions’ largest economies. A cross-cultural investigation of different entrepreneurial cultures reveals capacities and barriers of the joint development of innovation-driven cooperations. This chapter offers an overview of the current state of research, followed by an outline of cross-cultural differences on the basis of Hofstede’s, (Asia Pacific Journal of Management 1:81-99, 1984b) cultural dimensions. Further, we juxtapose the role of the entrepreneur from both a Chinese and a German perspective. We close with critical remarks and call for future research to address important research gaps.
