      AbstractThis report provides size of business and vertical industry perspectives of market statistics on the number of firms, establishments, and employees in the mid-sized business market. The research also provides data on the primary work environments of employees in this market, including the number of telecommuters, Internet-accessing telecommuters, and remote branch offices. Detailed five-year forecasts are included for all mid-sized business demographics, along with a discussion of current market trends.
      
      In response to a murky economic climate, merger activity among smaller firms and divestiture among those larger firms has led to uncharacteristically strong growth in this market. This merger activity should persist for at least another year, after which In-Stat/MDR expects the economy to improve noticeably, benefiting the middle market, with both firms and employment likely to experience growth, as well as other segments. By 2007, this market should swell to nearly 95K mid-sized firms with more than 23 million employees.
