摘　　要：This paper is focusing on SME internationalization and investigates the antecedents and the effects of organizational capabilities on strategy in the German MedTech industry. However, the impact of existing research in this field is relatively poor and is not yet applicable in other countries or industries. As a consequence, a systematic review of the literature has been conducted. The results have shown heterogeneous research outcomes in the field of strategy and the need for further research in this context. Overall, the review indicates an initial conceptual model that has been developed, in which significant fmdings could be identified and refmed in a country-, industry- or firm-specific way. The results will serve as a strategic input for SME＇s in the German MedTech industry.
