Existing studies have examined the impact of inward foreign direct investment (IFDI) on venture creation mainly at the country level. Now, an international team, including a researcher from Waseda University, has explored the multifaceted effects of IFDI on new venture creation at the industry-regional level, proposing an inverted U-shaped effect driven by learning opportunities and competitive threats. These insights can help local governments calibrate IFDI inflows to maintain a productivity-enhancing balance.
