Seizing Opportunities: A once in a lifetime chance The economic downturn is a window of great opportunity for those that can harness positive thinking and act ahead of the competition. Just ask today's leading high-growth company executives and entrepreneurs. In response to the downturn, Ernst & Young recently surveyed 3,100 Ernst & Young Entrepreneur Of The Year award country winners and finalists. Our remarkable findings show that in contrast to 74% of global multinationals whose top goal is “securing the present,” 67% of high-growth company CEOs and entrepreneurs are taking advantage of the downturn by “pursuing new market opportunities.” Expanding customer base and sharpening market differentiation are the top priority for today's leading entrepreneurs, according to our survey.
