Abstract:
Entrepreneurship is the force that drives economic, social and technical progress. A small percentage of firms (5%) is responsible for a disproportionately large amount of net job creation (>50%). Named high growth firms, these successful enterprises have been in the spotlight of research looking into the key drivers of firm growth and growth policy. This dissertation explores high growth from multiple perspectives: at the level of the firm, by understanding how the definition of a high growth firm impacts its characteristics and expected performance over time; at the local level, by isolating

Abstract:
The interaction between a growth factor and the extracellular region of its receptor is the first step in triggering the intracellular signalling pathways that induce a change in cell phenotype. Several platelet-derived growth factors (PDGFs) each bind to and activate PDGF receptor (PDGFR) alpha, a transmembrane receptor tyrosine kinase that simulates proliferation and migration in cells of mesenchymal origin. PDGFR alpha itself activates several intracellular signalling pathways. Thus, the possibility exists that different growth factors interact with PDGFR alpha in distinct ways to elicit di

Growth hormone (GH) is a poly-peptide hormone produced by the anterior pituitary. Growth hormone not only stimulates body and muscle growth but also inhibits adipose tissue growth. The overall objective of this study was to determine the mechanisms by which GH inhibits adipose tissue growth. Three studies were conducted to achieve this objective. The first study was conducted to determine if GH inhibits fat tissue growth by stimulating lipolysis. In this study, adipose tissue weight and adipocyte size were compared between GH-deficient growth hormone releasing hormone receptor (Ghrhr) homozygo

The thesis studies the export growth, economic growth and real exchange rate in Indonesia. The research is a piece of empirical studies mainly covering the period from 1974 to 1993. Indonesia is an oil-exporting country. Economic recession with high inflation rate in the early eighties prompted the government to undertake a series of economic and financial reforms. It was believed that oil export earnings by itself could not sustain long-term economic growth.

In particular, when both these parameters are relatively high or relatively low, the simulations demonstrate that uncertainty has a neg ative e⁄ect on growth.
