Markets and Growth

“I can access new customers and grow my business.”

Despite a relatively high birth rate for new enterprises, Canada has a lower proportion of fast-growing companies than other developed countries and relatively few small companies trade beyond their borders. Only 18 percent of small and medium size enterprises sell outside their home province, and only seven percent export outside of Canada. (See Roundtable Backgrounder for full details.)

Share your thoughts! For example, your response could refer to government support, trade regulation, entrepreneur’s comfort level, etc.

What are the challenges entrepreneurs face in accessing new customers and growing their businesses?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

  • When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
  • You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
  • To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.
