Abstract
Firms can develop their business portfolio according to different modes of growth. There is not a preferable mode of growth, but each mode has potential advantages and drawbacks to consider. This chapter discusses how corporate growth can be pursued, presenting the different modes of growth, and specifying specific initiatives firms can consider. The criteria for choosing among the different modes are discussed by highlighting internal and external factors that may influence the ultimate choice of firms.
