Resumen
This document aims at reviewing the literature on the impact that the development of innovation has on the internationalization of organizations, given that the generation of competitive advantages allows companies to differentiate themselves when entering international markets. Therefore, the database Scopus was consulted using the following keywords: "internationalization", “internationalisation”, "international expansion", "exports" and "innovation". Moreover, the PRISMA methodology was applied to select the articles that were going to be reviewed, which resulted in the content analysis of 30 studies carried out on five continents. It was found that technological innovation, which is divided into product and process innovation, contributes the most to business productivity and increases income derived from the export activity. In addition to this, the articles focused mainly on SMEs, since they are the largest contributors to nations' GDP.
