Location advantages of Visegrad countries in the digital era-the case of Poland and Hungary JF - EUROPEAN JOURNAL OF INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT J2 - EUR J INT MANAG VL - 20 PY - 2023 IS - 1 SP - 66 EP - 88 PG - 24 SN - 1751-6757 DO - 10.1504/EJIM.2023.130383 UR - https://m2.mtmt.hu/api/publication/33932321 ID - 33932321 AB - The economic development of Central European countries has been based on foreign capital investments. Attracting FDI by influencing foreign investors' decisions remained an important goal. Investment decisions are complex and affected by behavioural, subjective factors too. In this paper we investigate how digitalisation changes FDI decision making and what are the consequences for the location advantages of Poland and Hungary. We also aim to assess the reshoring prospects for these countries due to pandemic induced digitalisation and disruptions in global value chains. We have found that digitalisation changes the Dunning OLI paradigm advantages and influences the investment decision-making process. The location advantages of Poland and Hungary have not improved enough in modern digital technologies and have worsened in skilled labour supply. To compensate for these, attractive incentives are offered for foreign investors, which can maintain the momentum of FDI temporarily, but in the new era of Industry 4.0, government policy should invest more in digital skills and education.

This setup has implications for EU level industrial policy strategies. In the current times of accelerating technological development and the ever growing servitisation of industries, ‘headquarter’ economies genuinely have better capabilities and resources to gain more share of the value added, and can actually steer the course of events in the sector. In the EU peripheries, new investment often covers relocation of previous technologies and retired assets of original equipment manufacturers (OEMs). The ‘factory’ economies are in a disadvantage in several aspects, while the headquarters optimise according to their own set of strategic preferences, which further compromises the opportunities of industrial actors in the peripheries to shape their own future. Industrial policies, however smart and well designed, have limited chances to influence the character and speed of changes. We review reported cases through which we test literature and contrast realities with aspirations regarding smart and sustainable industrial development across the EU.
