Заходя в венчурный проект на ранней стадии, инвестор должен быть готов ждать от 5 до 10 лет до возможной ликвидности в том или другом формате. Довольно часто случаются и более быстрые сделки, но рассчитывать на это сложно. XXXX успешно развивается, пошла первая выручка, но о выходе пока рано говорить – впереди у нас еще долгий путь.
– Вы традиционно хотите продать потом свою долю?
– Как правило, да. Но если у нас получится масштабироваться, то будем сами расти, вероятно, и ***неорганически*** тоже. Важно не упираться в единственный желаемый сценарий и быть «оппортунистами» в лучшем смысле этого слова.
I'm not happy about just translating неорганически as "inorganic", it doesn't mean anything to me.

Rachel Douglas
: With "M&A", doesn't need "activities." Or, if Jack wants to have the person not use the lingo "inorganic" or "M&A," a descriptive translation might also work: "... generate growth internally, as well as by acquiring assets from elsewhere."

thank you! I myself think, though, that inorganic fits the bill for this context

Comment: "Thank you. Decided after checking your reference to use "inorganically" after all."

opportunistic (growth, development)
For example, it is possible to say something like *our growth may also be opportunistic*...
Whereas instead of the term: *быть «оппортунистами»*, you may use: *we will take advantage of all opportunities*
Pls. see definition of "opportunistic".

: This isn't the same. There are opportunistic acquisitions (ad hoc) and there are more deliberately planned acquisition strategies.

acquisitionally
This is a standard M&A term - to grow acquisitionally, etc.. Of course you can use alternatives such as 'via M&A', 'via acquisition'. Actually 'inorganically' is also used frequently in this context.

danya
: acquisitionally seems to be rare, while acquisitional growth googles well :)

I am a former money manager, and I still read millions of words of financial publications per year in English. I have only rarely seen "inorganic growth" and don't like the sound of it.

unnatural growth
If we eliminate the impact of these factors we find that the growth of Chinese tax revenues is not unnatural,
but by and large in line with the growth of GDP.
unnatural growth versus natural growth
natural growth
will be self-generating and self-sustaining, and the economy will be growing at its potential, as its productive capacity expands.
