I am pleased to share with you this report that shows if we take action now to focus on ‘scale-ups’, we will secure significant growth in jobs, taxes and wealth, and the competitive advantage of Britain for generations to come. This report explains how a boost of just one per cent to our scale-up population should drive an additional 238,000 jobs and £38 billion to GVA within three years. In the medium-term, assuming we address the skills-gap, we stand to benefit by £96 billion per annum and in the long-run, if we close the scale-up gap, then we stand to gain 150,000 net jobs and £225 billion additional GVA by 2034. This report sets out a clear plan of action to close the scale-up gap. The plan centres on using data already collected by government to provide a platform that enables both public and private sector organisations to work together to improve the community of which they are a part. Britain is a GREA T place to start a business. With the supportive government policies, industry structure, geographic placement and talent supply we enjoy in the UK , we are in the position to create unrivalled national competitive advantage by increasing the proportion of companies that ‘scale-up’. A ‘scale-up’ is an enterprise with average annualised growth in employees or turnover greater than 20 per cent per annum over a three year period, and with more than 10 employees at the beginning of the observation period. This competitive advantage will be rewarded by economic growth per capita. The responsibility to become ‘a scale-up nation’ – to create an environment (ecosystem) where a greater number of companies reach global scale – rests with all of us who have an interest in supporting economic growth. Rather than look only to the US for inspiration, this report examines successful collaborations between business and government that have taken place over the past 20 years in 20 other countries and recommends actions that we can take now. Individually and collectively, businesses, educators and policymakers can co-create a future that is bright for our children and their children: a place where both scale-ups and start-ups flourish, with plenty of jobs and growing GVA per capita.

“This report makes a compelling case for
getting behind the UK’s high growth
‘scale-ups’ and I hope all political parties
seriously consider its recommendations.
These firms are already having a
transformational impact, we just need
more of them to grow.
Helping them access the talent they
need, develop their leadership and
access new markets are the priorities.”

SECRETARY FOR BUSINESS,

"This excellent report from Sherry Coutu makes clear that
to secure the high-wage, high-skill economy that means
people in Britain can succeed, we need to fix the broken
rungs on the ladder that make it harder for ambitious
businesses in Britain to step onto the global stage.
Whether making better use of the information out there
about which are our most promising firms, or
coordinating support at a local level, the report is
packed full of straightforward recommendations that
point not only to how Britain can pay its way in the world
but how it can do so in a way that enables far more
people than now can build the life they want – that is
why Sherry’s insightful report is so important and a real
clarion call for policy makers to act."

World leading universities such as Cambridge play a
crucial role in creating business through the generation of
innovation, entrepreneurship, and funding opportunities,
but it is the talent and expertise of our students and
academics that will help these businesses grow.”

"In all fields, getting started is essential, but not enough.
Races need to be finished, plays need final acts, and for
enterprises, starting-up must be followed by scaling-up.
The Scale-Up Report focuses our attention on this less-well
studied, but critical, element of the process of business
formation and job growth.
By changing the public and private dialogue to celebrate not
just start ups, but scale ups, this Scale-Up report will hopefully
boost the UK economy."

FOUNDER & CEO
“I wholeheartedly support the Scale-Up Report.
Whilst start-ups are so important for this country, it is the scale ups
that deliver the economic reward. It is also really hard to scale up
and so if experience and support can be lent to the scale-up
candidates, then they will have an even greater chance of success.
Support can also quite simply be about unblocking the way and
freeing them up to just get on with it. I think a focus on scale-ups
could deliver real economic benefit.”

As chair of the Greater Manchester Local Enterprise

argument for more focused business support services

“Britain confronts a Scale-up crisis, and Sherry Coutu is to be
warmly congratulated on opening up an issue that has for
too long gone unexplored and unremedied.
If the country is to capitalise on its strengths and emergent
entrepreneurial culture then it is vital that we construct the
ecosystem in which more start-ups and young firms grow
to maturity.
We need the debate which I hope this report will trigger: but
we also need radical action”.

"Not only does this report pull together the
evidence on economic gains from effective
scaling up of knowledge based business based in
the UK in a comprehensive way, it also sets out
the ways in which resources can be mobilised,
skills improved and successes identified.
It's not about 'picking winners' but about making
sure firms that win early can go on to use their IP
and innovative ideas to win internationally.
It's another chapter in turning UK ideas into
growth on a global scale”

Sherry Coutu's comprehensive and insightful report
identifies the many challenges we all face if we are to
unlock, harness and sustain the extraordinary
opportunities that now confront us.
I hope that it encourages political, business and

strategies, skills and structures that British businesses of
all shapes and sizes need if they are to continue
succeeding on the world stage.

19. A ‘scale-up’ is an enterprise with average annual growth in employees or
turnover greater than 20 per cent per annum over a three year period,
and with more than 10 employees at the beginning of the period
THE SCALE-UP REPORT ON UK ECONOMIC GROWTH Sherry #scaleup Coutu CBE

20. Methodology
8,923
THE SCALE-UP REPORT ON UK ECONOMIC GROWTH Sherry #scaleup Coutu CBE

21. SCALE-UPS ARE THROUGHOUT THE COUNTRY
Scale-ups are found in each of the 39
LEP areas in England and 6,659 (75 per
cent) of the total 8,923 scale-ups are
located outside of London.
On average a LEP will have
approximately 228 scale-ups in their area.
These in turn can be grouped into the
Number of scale-ups companies that
employ between
• 10 and 49 employees,
• 50 and 250 employees,
• >250 employees

extent to which science-based scale-ups
are a nationwide phenomenon.
36 (72 per cent) of the top 50 fastest
growing science-based companies
are located outside of London.
These 50 science-based companies
increased their revenues by an
average of 92 % between 2012 and
2013, achieving a combined annual
turnover of more than £1.3 billion.

25. STARTUPS DO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO NATIONAL OUTPUT
Research by the academic David Storey has found that the
median annual sales of a six-year-old firm in the UK are less than £23,000
This research also found that only a small group of start-ups achieve
significant growth in revenues – just one per cent have sales of more than £1 million
six years after they star
1 %
It also found that the average new firm, despite the hype that surrounds
startups, made a negligible contribution to British productivity growth.
THE SCALE-UP REPORT ON UK ECONOMIC GROWTH #scaleup
Sherry Coutu |CBE

26. STARTUPS DO NOT CONTRIBUTE TO NATIONAL OUTPUT
Related to this is the fact that larger businesses tend to be more
productive than smaller businesses.
BIS data show that in the UK average turnover per employee is:
• £170,000 for firms with 250 plus employees
• £164,000 for firms with 50 to 249 employees
• £134,000 for firms with between 10 and 49 employees39
The average new firm, despite the hype that surrounds startups, made a
negligible contribution to British productivity growth.

27. SCALE-UPS HAVE HIGH QUALITY JOBS
http://www.scaleupreport.com
Of the employees surveyed in these high-growth companies who had joined the
company from another employer, 80 per cent stated that they were ‘satisfied’ or
‘very satisfied’ with their current job compared to 46 per cent when asked about
their previous job

And we should focus our attention and policies on scale-ups

“to nurture and raise a single child into a successful human being takes
much longer and is a more complex and arduous process for society
than to introduce an additional child into the world”

30. THERE IS A SCALE-UP GAP
The UK has a lower share of large businesses
than the US.
Large firms with more than 250 employees
account for 0.5 per cent of firms in the UK but
0.7 per cent in the US.
THE SCALE-UP REPORT ON UK ECONOMIC GROWTH #scaleup
Sherry Coutu |CBE

31. THERE IS A SCALE-UP GAP
 Many European economies,
including UK are as
effective as US in creating
new businesses
 Not enough of them grow –
displacing older firms
 This lack of ‘scale up’
means the economy as a
whole loses on productivity
and growth.

The 3 year gross impact of moving 1% of businesses to HGF mode
(244% over 3 years)
As a simple illustration of the potential impact of
high-growth firms, RBS undertook an analysis to
determine the economy wide impact of one per
cent of all businesses with over 10 employees
shifting from a stable growth state into high-growth
mode.
This would see the total population of HGFs in
the UK increase from 10,200 (4.6 per cent of
total business population with 10 or more
employees) to 12,440 (5.6 per cent of total
business population with 10 or more employees).
At the end of year three this would result in 2,240
businesses making this shift and the creation of
238,000 jobs and almost £39 billion in additional
turnover.

40. Key Messages
What makes any portfolio of
initiatives work in this context is the
joint efforts of a mixed group of
stakeholders:
Successful entrepreneurs,
government, large corporates,
investors and educators
(universities and schools).
Joint initiatives, joint leadership,
joint funding, joint accountability.
This mixed representation and
cross-stakeholder working is what
creates a true entrepreneurial
ecosystem.

THE SCALE-UP REPORT ON UK ECONOMIC GROWTH Sherry Coutu |CBE

41. Collaboration is key
The Endeavor programme has cost an average
of £405 for every job created in emerging
conomies, and this has been
financed largely without public funding (see case
study below).
Furthermore, the Endeavor programme is
financed in most cases without any public
support, relying on private sector donations of
funding and time, with a volunteer network of
more than 1,000 global and local business
leaders.
Similarly, Mass Challenge and VentureFest have
created more than 4,000 jobs between April
2010 and September 2013 at a cost of £1,285
per job, with just four per cent of funding coming
from the public sector.
