Rapid scaling funded through venture capital is the holy grail of Silicon Valley startups鈥攁nd has been hailed as a way to encourage economic growth in impoverished places. Yet, slower growth could yield greater benefits for local economies, according to Anna Kim, Associate Professor of Strategy and Organization at 不良研究所 Desautels.
Scaling intentionally, rather than rapidly, could yield social, economic, and environmental benefits
The most successful technology companies have scaled quickly from startups to become the world鈥檚 largest companies. 鈥淭he Silicon Valley formula can be great for some enterprises,鈥 says Associate Professor Anna Kim in a piece by The Globe and Mail鈥檚 Report on Business Magazine, 鈥渂ut it doesn鈥檛 always have the best social, economic, and environmental impacts.鈥 Instead, companies can choose to scale deeply and intentionally.

How would definitions of business growth and success change if entrepreneurship ventures decided that instead of scaling up, they would 鈥渟cale deep鈥? While scaling up allows an organization to pursue fast expansion with goals of going national or global, scaling deep lets an organization pursue enduring growth and sustainability anchored to its original location.
