The graph plots business opportunity recognition against network degree centrality, showing two conditions: low and high home country cultural tightness. Under low cultural tightness, opportunity recognition increases with higher network degree centrality, suggesting stronger networking benefits. Under high cultural tightness, however, recognition decreases as centrality increases, indicating that stricter cultural contexts may restrict the effective use of network connections for identifying business opportunities. The contrast between the two lines illustrates the moderating role of cultural tightness.The interaction between network degree centrality and the home country’s cultural tightness
