Abstract

International business and management operating across the world are increasingly influenced by international
migration and evolving diasporas. As a result, the landscapes of business, different business actors,
and the respective patterns of diverse activities are shifting and influencing the world as a whole, especially
host and home countries. This Special Issue addresses these impacts reflecting not only entrepreneurial and
migratory behaviors, international mobility, entrepreneurship, trade and investments but also frameworks and
institutions that shape and govern such processes. The contributions presented in this editorial provide multiple
insights not only into future avenues of research, specific populations, types of businesses, and areas
but also to respective policies and particular challenges and opportunities.
