ScaleUp Review 2018 is published

The 2018 Annual Scaleup Review, just published by the ScaleUp Institute, reports that aspirations remain high – eight in ten scaleups are expecting to scale again next year.

The survey, which focuses on the views of 514 scaleup CEOs, demonstrates that they are ambitious businesses, with 62% expecting more than 20% growth in the next year. But while scaleup aspirations remain high, there remains concern over sufficient support and the UK being a good location for doing business in the future.

Review highlights

  • 89% of scaleup CEOs expect to grow even further in 2019 despite Brexit uncertainties
  • two thirds of scaleups are involved in international trade, in a range of markets across the world
  • two out of ten scaleups (18%) expect their turnover to grow more than 50% in the next year


As well as describing the top five challenges facing scaleups, the review inlcudes more datasets, more information and more analysis than ever before.
