16 Companies between $1-$10 million revenues 19, 232 companies Greater Milwaukee 5,264 companies 7,963 companies Waukesha Milwaukee
17 Five practical principles Place: Choose a specific region, usually not a country Nations are not usually good units of analysis Variability within countries Is greater than between.5 million 2 million population (very approximately)
18 Five practical principles Place: Choose a specific region, usually not a country High Potential: Focus on existing ventures with revenues rather than startups, micro-enterprises, small businesses or large companies
19 Vast majority of initiatives are focused on new venture creation (startups) Incubators Angel networks Startup movements (Startup America etc.) Equity and other crowdfunding Small business incentives Coaching, mentoring Tax credits Government venture fund creation
20 Startup and Scale Ups are very different Start High number of new firm registrations High survival rates in startup phase Large numbers of owners Growth High growth rates Competition for talent Low firm registrations Low survival rates in start up phase Startups create jobs misleading for 3 reasons - Startups also shed jobs - Those that do are much fewer than 1% of firms - The jobs tend to be low paying
21 Scale ups (high growth) create jobs
22 Scale ups - High growth firms 1% to 6% of all firms which surpass 10 employees or $1 million revenues In basic industries (food, logistics, distribution, finance) Tend to be years old Tend to grow in spurts which can be triggered by many events
23 Five practical principles Place. Choose a specific region, usually not a country Potential. Focus on existing ventures with revenues rather than startups, micro-enterprises, or large companies People. Convene most influential local leaders from different sectors of ecosystem for education, alignment, and planning
