Resumo: The purpose of this study was to discuss how the innovation and internationalization strategies adopted by a multinational group have impacted its corporate growth process. The historical and geographical contexts were also considered and influenced that process. The strategies used for the introduction of the firm in the Brazilian market were also approached. . For carrying out the study, the starting point was a theoretical review of the growth, innovation and internationalization of firms. As far as the study empirical approach was concerned, it was considered the Geberit Group acting on the sanitary technology market, with the objective of analyzing the impact of the various strategies adopted by the firm in its expansion process. From the analysis of the firm evolution process, it was observed that the group growth happened through diversification strategies (CHANDLER, 1990), applying the use of offensive innovation strategies (FREEMAN e SOETE, 1999). As far as growth through internationalization was concerned, it happened after consolidation in the original market (CHESNAIS, 1996), taking into account the internal organizational complexity needed to adjust the firm to the different markets (HAGEDOORN, 1994).

As contextualizações históricas e geográficas também permearam e influenciaram esse processo. Foram consideradas ainda nesse contexto, as estratégias adotadas para a inclusão da empresa no mercado brasileiro. Para a condução do estudo, inicialmente foi contemplada uma fundamentação teórica relativa a aspectos de crescimento, inovação e internacionalização de empresas. No que tange a abordagem empírica deste estudo, foi considerada a atuação do Grupo Geberit no mercado de tecnologia sanitária, com o objetivo de analisar o impacto das várias estratégias adotadas pela empresa em seu processo de expansão. A partir da análise do processo de evolução da empresa, foi observado que o crescimento da empresa se deu por meio de estratégias de diversificação (CHANDLER, 1990), valendo-se ainda de estratégias ofensivas de inovação (FREEMAN e SOETE, 1999). No tocante ao crescimento por meio de internacionalização, isto ocorreu após consolidação no mercado de origem (CHESNAIS, 1996), observando-se a complexidade organizacional interna necessária para adequação da empresa aos diferentes mercados (HAGEDOORN, 1994).Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing - ESPM2012-06-06info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://internext.espm.br/internext/article/view/12610.18568/1980-4865.62116-137Internext - International Business and Management Review ; Vol. 6 No. 2 (2011); 116-137Internext; v. 6 n. 2 (2011); 116-1371980-4865reponame:Internextinstname:Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing (ESPM)instacron:ESPMporhttps://internext.espm.br/internext/article/view/126/122Copyright (c) 2015 Internextinfo:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessFurquim, Nelson RobertoArantes, Edmur Caniato2023-03-27T20:31:53Zoai:ojs.emnuvens.com.br:article/126Revistahttps://internext.espm.br/internextPRIhttps://internext.espm.br/internext/oaiinternext@espm.br1980-48651980-4865opendoar:2023-03-27T20:31:53Internext - Escola Superior de Propaganda e Marketing (ESPM)false
