In other words, I would like to know what makes a company a multicultural entity? if you have any idea about papers or researchers that have discussed the factors which determine cultural differences in organizations it would be greatly appreciated.

Dear colleague. I recommend to read these blogs:

Marilyn Loden's Implementing Diversity is a very good resource to start with, although not very recent.
Out of experience, I'd say the first determinant is the existence of a strategy acknowledging the need to create cultural diversity in organizations. Without it, it's just window dressing.
