Frost Radar™

Benchmarking Your Future Growth Potential

Frost & Sullivan’s global team of experts and advisors continuously analyses a wide range of industries across the globe.

Business Growth Radar

The Frost Radar™

Our work is focused exclusively on identifying the growth opportunities of the future and evaluating companies that are best positioned to take advantage of them. The Frost Radar™ is a robust analytical tool that allows us to evaluate companies across two key indices: their focus on continuous innovation and their ability to translate their innovations into consistent growth. Our primary and secondary analyses span the entire value chain of each industry, identifying organizations that consistently develop new growth strategies based on a visionary understanding of the future and a proven ability to effectively address emerging challenges and opportunities.

In that vein, the Frost Radar™ serves as a truly dynamic solution to continuously benchmark companies’ future growth potential with clear insight into their core strengths and weaknesses.
