3 Disruption in the mid-market About the survey From May 29, to June 16,, a Deloitte survey of mid-market companies was conducted by OnResearch, a market research firm. The survey examined technology trends taking place in this market segment to determine the role and value that technology plays and how it influences business decisions. The 500 survey respondents represented mid-market companies with annual revenues ranging from $100 million to more than $1 billion. Half of the respondents were C-suite executives, while the remaining 50 percent held other management roles. Three-fourths of the respondents represented companies that are privately held, while the remainder represented publicly-traded firms. One-third of the respondents were from consumer and industrial product companies, with the remainder divided among energy and resources; financial services; life sciences and health care; technology, media and communications; and other industries. The full survey results are included in this report; some percentages in the charts may not add up to 100 percent because of rounding, or for questions where survey participants had the option to choose multiple responses. The report based on these survey findings, Disruption in the mid-market: How technology is fueling growth, can be found on our website at www2.deloitte.com/us/disruptioninmidmarket.
