Release date: 2004-10-29 - 3. The transition from small to medium size: Industrial and geographic distribution of small high-growth firms ArchivedArticles and reports: 88-003-X20040037438Geography: CanadaDescription:
This analysis provides an estimate of the numbers of small companies that have, and have not, grown to medium size. It determines which industries and communities have the highest proportions of quickly growing small firms, where the firms that have not yet grown to medium size are, and how they could be supported in their growth strategy.
Release date: 2004-10-29 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20040037440Geography: CanadaDescription:
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.
Release date: 2004-10-29 - Articles and reports: 88-003-X20040037441Geography: CanadaDescription:
This article examines average research and development spending per firm and revenue growth. Using data from the Survey of Research and Development in Canadian Industry, it explores differences in research and development spending and revenue growth between high-growth and non-high-growth firms that reported strong employment growth.
Release date: 2004-10-29 - 6. Community Innovation: Innovation Performance of Manufacturing Firms in Canadian Communities ArchivedArticles and reports: 88F0006X2004015Description:
This working paper analyses data from the 1999 Survey of Innovation, comparing the percentage of innovative establishments in Canadian communities to the national estimate. Trends by type of geographic area and by location are also discussed.
Release date: 2004-09-09 - Articles and reports: 88F0006X2004013Description:
This paper presents an index of specialization (the location quotient) for Canada's 50 largest communities. It also presents the initial analysis comparing changes in specialization in selected high-technology industries with changes in employment in these communities.
Release date: 2004-07-16 - 8. An Historical Comparison of Technological Change, 1998-2000 and 2000-2002, in the Private and Public Sectors ArchivedArticles and reports: 88F0006X2004007Description:
This paper presents data on technological change that have been made comparable from the Survey of Electronic Commerce and Technology (SECT) for 2000 and 2002. It shows that when comparable data for the 1998 to 2000 and 2000 to 2002 periods (based on the definition and survey universe employed by SECT 2000) are used, the propensity to adopt new technologies in the private sector has remained constant at about 40%. The rate of technology adoption in the public sector remained at four out of five organizations introducing significantly improved technologies (a level about twice as high as that for the private sector). This rate also shows little change from 2000. The paper presents the comparable technological change data, while explaining differences in the wording of the survey questions and universe between the two reference years. Information is provided for private and public sectors, selected employment size groups and sectors of both private and public sectors.
