The effect of international ethnic communities on international opportunity exploitation of Wenzhou industrial SMEs is examined. The following hypotheses are tested: the hypothesis on the connection between international ethnic ties and international opportunity exploitation; the hypothesis on the mitigation of “liability of foreignness” effects through the international ethnic ties; and finally, the hypothesis of the impact on export barriers. Results of the empirical study, in general, support the derived hypotheses.
