The internationalization of business activities and economic growth in the global environment have recently been largely supported by small and medium-sized businesses. The purpose of this article is to study small and medium-sized enterprise activities related to international cooperation and integration. Analysis of management practice shows that small and medium-sized businesses are focused on independent production and promotion of products to foreign markets, and do not seek production cooperation and integrative cooperation with foreign partners. But the use of international cooperation and integration tools is one of the drivers of growth in foreign economic activity for small and medium-sized businesses, a trigger in international entrepreneurship. In this regard, the creation of institutional and financial conditions for the activation of exports, providing infrastructure and methodological support for foreign economic activities will contribute to the expansion of cooperation and integration ties between economic entities in the field of small and medium-sized businesses.
