So, when the ScaleUp Institute was seeking a partner to achieve their mission to make the UK the best place in the world to scale a business, we were the obvious choice! So, what is a scale-up?The official definition of “Scale-ups" is a company achieving average annual growth of 20% or more in turnover or headcount over three years. However, a better way of looking at this is to consider the qualities of scale-up businesses. Scale-ups can invest in sustained growth through internationalisation, job creation, capital investment and innovation. They include the infamous 'unicorns' (157 since 1998) and are typically businesses more than 10 years old that can make the gearshift to attract private equity investment or undergo an IPO (Initial Public Offering).As Director - ScaleUps my remit is quite simply to help UK ScaleUps. With access to the expertise and skill-sets of BDO and the wider ScaleUp ecosystem, we advise businesses on the key factors that will take them to the next round of funding, the next level of growth, and beyond towards their strategic targets.
