Handbook of research on scaling and high-growth firms

edited by Veroniek Collewaert (Professor of Entrepreneurship, Vlerick Business School and KU Leuven, Belgium) and Justin J.P. Jansen (Professor of Corporate Entrepreneurship, Erasmus University Rotterdam and Erasmus Centre for Entrepreneurship, the Netherlands)

"This pioneering Handbook explores the nature of scaling and high growth. It identifies specific patterns and strategies, and discusses important drivers and determinants of high growth, presenting a state-of-the-art overview of existing research and introducing crucial new insights into the field, both for academics and scaleup entrepreneurs, advisors and ecosystem stakeholders. Chapters delve into the similarities and differences between scaling and high growth and investigate how scaling can acquire different meanings depending on the context in which it occurs. Expert authors examine the different factors involved and demonstrate how initiatives, firms and ecosystems may scale. They particularly engage with the roles of people, structure, culture, financing and ecosystems in growth and scaling, providing insights into future research directions and new methodological approaches. Students and scholars of entrepreneurship, innovation and strategic management will greatly benefit from this informative Handbook. It is also a vital resource for policymakers and practitioners in entrepreneurship, innovation and HR"--
