In Europe, where small and medium sized enterprises and entrepreneurs play a significant role in the economy, they operate in a complex environment affected by diverse and intense pressure of national cultures. Responses of entrepreneurs in meeting these challenges can be supportes by developing a deeper theoretical understanding of variables pertinent to international entrepreneurship. This paper contributes to the theoretical understanding of the prioess of international opportunity identification by entrepreneurs. We look at the influence of the cross-cultural environment on the cognition, behavior and the effectiveness of the decision-making by international entreperneurs at identifying cross-border opportunities. We then investigate the role of cross-cultural competence in moderating entrepreneurial "opportunity" competencies and entrepreneurial self-efficacy and, therefore, the overall effectiveness of international opportunity identification. Finally, we define cross-cultural competence in international opportunity identification and conclude by discussing implication of this study for practitioners and researchers.
