Scale-ups and High-Growth Firms Theory, Definitions, and Measurement / [electronic resource] : by Alex Coad, Anders Bornhäll, Sven-Olov Daunfeldt, Alexander McKelvie. - 1st ed. 2024. - XI, 61 p. 4 illus., 3 illus. in color. online resource. - SpringerBriefs in Business, 2191-5490 . - SpringerBriefs in Business, .
High-Growth Firms -- Stages of Growth models -- A definition of a scale-up -- In search of scale-ups: empirical analysis.
Open Access
This open access book goes into the details of the characteristics of scale-ups, touching upon various theoretical perspectives (stages of growth models, the role of intangible capital, the tradeoffs between fixed costs and marginal costs) relating to firm growth, to provide a clear definition of this emerging concept. Given the disproportionately large economic contribution of a small number of fast-growing firms, there has been growing interest in a category of dynamic ventures called "scale-ups". The term was popularized by Silicon Valley Venture Capitalists before receiving attention from academics and public policy makers. However, there remains considerable confusion regarding what a scale-up actually is. This is an open access book.
