Chapter Chapter 1 in Scale-ups and High-Growth Firms, 2024, pp 1-5 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract The book begins with an introduction to research on High-Growth Firms and scale-ups, focusing on the development of the literature, and observing that early work on scale-ups focused on anecdotal evidence and case studies. In contrast, this book seeks to develop a rigorous and general definition of scale-ups that is amenable to being applied to datasets of firm populations from different countries and time periods.
