Release date: 2006-05-11 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20050028017Geography: CanadaDescription:
Statistics Canada has been working with NRC-IRAP on a series of projects to better understand the characteristics of growth firms.

This analysis provides an estimate of the numbers of small companies that have, and have not, grown to medium size.

Theories of business growth lead us to believe that, to grow, a company needs to be innovative, conduct research and development, have access to multiple sources of funding, protect its intellectual property, engage in alliances and establish itself in a market niche. In this article, interviews with Canadian technology-based companies show that some companies manage to grow by breaking these rules.
