If the firm is really successful and expands quickly, the problem of adaptation is magnified many times.

It is built around the theme of how fragile and vulnerable these firms are and what management should do to reduce their vulnerability and thereby improve their chance of success.

Based on case studies and research carried out with over 100 firms in Europe and the United States, this book explores the strategies and organizational practices used by some of the more successful small high-tech firms, and explains why successful growth is hard to achieve and difficult to sustain. Gambling on Growth will he of enormous benefit to managers and directors of small and medium-sized technology-based firms.
