We are living in an era of disruption with the rise of innovative scale-ups transforming industries and the way we function. Ambitious entrepreneurial companies are challenging established businesses by identifying unexploited niches in the marketplace and filling the gaps with agile, low-cost, and often digital solutions.

The most successful of these disruptors can become multi-million dollar businesses very quickly, which presents its own challenges and risks. That’s why Deloitte Private has launched our Emerging Growth practice. Combining the technical expertise of our network of specialists with bespoke solutions, we’re uniquely placed to help support the distinctive growth challenges disruptor businesses face at every stage of their business lifecycle.
