The purpose of this work is to investigate on the definition of High Growth enterprises, described in the EUROSTAT-OECD Manual on Business Demography Statistics.
In particular, various strategies for determining HG rates and their impacts on entrepreneurship are tested, especially with regards to wealth and employment creation contribution. For this purpose different sets of potential high-growth enterprises are compared in terms of employment and turnover.

Performance Indicators (1)21th Meeting of Wiesbaden Group on BR – Roundtable on Business Survey Frames
Four economic performance indicators from balance-sheet accounts are used as significant instruments to quantify the economic and financial performance of the HG enterprises
1) The turnover by persons employed
2) The value added by persons employed
3) The ROE (Return on Equity)
4) The ROS (Return on Sales)
1) Limited liability company with less 10 employees
2) Limited liability of HG enterprises3) Limited liability company with 10 or more

2) The value-added by persons employed
This indicator represents the “real” wealth created by the processes of production of goods and services that pay for all the production factors. It is calculated as ratio between the characteristic value added (the difference between the value of the production and the costs of subjects, services and enjoyment of goods) and the number of the persons employed

An Empirical Analysis to investigate on High Growth definition
Conclusions:
The analysis carried out in this work shows that the high growth are the enterprises with more performance than others, above all in terms of turnover.
The performance economic indicators show that the high growth are the best in terms of profitability, especially in the sector of Industry less in the sector of services.
The threshold of 10 employees according to which the high growth are identified, is too much restrictive for those sectors characterized by micro and small enterprises.
To use a growth composite indicator (we are going to work on this issue) that take account of both the arithmetic average and the characteristic dimension of the economic activity sectors, would be desirable.
