Abstract: As the opportunities for mergers and acquisitions are finite, the principal way that a firm can expand is through organic growth. This paper has a comprehensive discussion on the subject of organic growth by taking a taxonomic approach. It first classifies the different routes to growth, followed by a categorisation of the various factors that could inhibit it. The paper concludes with a brief discussion of the importance of the interaction of historical antecedents and the ability to exploit existing opportunities.

Keywords: organic growth; innovation; market appropriation; taxonomy; taxonomic perspectives; mergers; company expansion; acquisitions; historical antecedents; existing opportunities; sustained competitive advantage; global markets; business excellence. (search for similar items in EconPapers)
