Scaling‐up: Building, Leading and Sustaining Rapid Growth Over Time
为规模化与高增长企业研究提供多维概念化框架，将其视为包含扩张、复制和同步的动态能力，并提出高增长企业的类型学，最后基于特刊研究提出未来研究重点。
Abstract Even as research on scaling and high growth firms (HFGs) is gaining momentum, the corpus of accumulated research remains largely fragmented and dispersed, with little in the way of a central conceptual foundation or ‘theoretical true north’ to guide empirical development. This Special Issue provides a forum for works that push the theoretical and empirical frontiers of research on scaling and HGFs. We provide a multi‐dimensional conceptualization that recognizes scaling as a dynamic capability entailing routines and processes for expansion, replication, and synchronization. We also present a typology that specifies the multiple types of HGFs. Inspired by the four studies published in the special issue, we finally outline five priorities for future research.
