Determining what constitutes a high-growth business is challenging, since there is no single established definition. Perhaps the first was by David Birch, who coined the term “high-growth” in a 1979 report. According to Birch, high-growth businesses start with at least $1 million in revenue and grow by 20 percent every year for a period of four years. Based on this, the business doubles its revenue over that period.
