The importance of social networks in the penetration of high-tech companies into the markets of other countries: a questionnaire for companies

The questionnaire tackles the question of success of companies entering the markets of European Union member states and third-country markets, the mechanisms used by companies in this regard, and the topics of social capital. A purposive sampling method was used. The population is represented by High-tech companies in Slovenia. The determination of units in the population is based on the classification established by the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD). Based on the OECD classification, conversion to the Standard Classification of Activities (SKD) and data collection in the Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for Public Legal Records and Services (AJPES), we determined population units that cover 364 companies as of 25 March 2011.本调查问卷旨在探讨企业进入欧盟成员国市场及第三国市场的成功性、企业在此拓展过程中所采用的运作机制，以及社会资本相关议题。 本研究采用立意抽样法，研究总体为斯洛文尼亚的高新技术企业（High-tech companies）。总体样本单元的确定依据经济合作与发展组织（Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development，OECD）制定的分类标准。结合该分类标准完成行业活动标准分类（Standard Classification of Activities，SKD）的转换，并通过斯洛文尼亚共和国公共法律记录与服务署（Agency of the Republic of Slovenia for Public Legal Records and Services，AJPES）完成数据采集，最终确定截至2011年3月25日的符合要求的总体样本单元共计364家企业。
