The term, hypergrowth, was reportedly coined by Alexander V. Izosimov in a 2008 issue of the Harvard Business Review.
Hypergrowth refers to rapid scaling of a business. It can be explained by pitfalls associated with the S Curve.
The S curve at its steepest parts – the most challenging points – are inflection points that most young businesses and sectors experience when growth stagnates or stops.
