The professional diaspora as an asset for the internationalization of the economy

Enrique Fanjul
Abstract

The objective of the article is to analyze the role that the diaspora professionals can play as an asset for the internationalization of economies. A special reference is made to the case of Spain, which has registered a strong growth of professionals abroad, especially young people, since the economic crisis that began in 2008. A series of channels are identified through which this diaspora can contribute to the internationalization of an economy and its companies. Governments must pay attention to the diaspora phenomenon and design strategies and actions that facilitate its use.
