Outlook of SM Enterprises in 2007
Research has analysed the notions of Finnish SMEs of their business cycle situation, operating environment and markets.
One fifth (20%) of SMEs have produced content services for clients.
By line of business, SMEs producing services for business have produced most content services (42%).
Export companies (32%) produce content services more often than home market based companies (17%).
Production of content services becomes more common as the size of enterprises grows: of micro enterprises, 19 per cent have produced content services, while 21 per cent of small companies and 32 per cent of medium-sized companies have done so.
Production of content services is more common among growth-oriented than other companies.
