This paper considers those high growth companies who do not appear to consult official support bodies – in particular, Grampian Enterprise Ltd. The challenge of finding these businesses has been likened to looking for “diamonds in the sand”. Both general and specific recommendations are drawn that would help in the locating and motivating of these SMEs to seek official help.
