Gavin Clydesdale Reid is a Scottish economist and past President of the Scottish Economic Society (1999–2002).[1] A graduate of the Universities of Aberdeen, Southampton and Edinburgh, he is Head of Dundee Business School Abertay University (2014-) and was Founding Director of the Centre for Research into Industry, Enterprise, Finance and the Firm (CRIEFF) in the School of Economics & Finance at the University of St Andrews, Scotland, UK.

His approach is heavily grounded by fieldwork in the business enterprise,[2][3][4] and he favours an interdisciplinary approach to the study of a firm, combining economics with accounting and finance.[5]

His book Small Business Enterprise (1993), uses econometric analysis to examine a body of small firms, and is one of several that have been favourably reviewed.[6] He has written and presented numerous research papers,[7] of which recent examples are cited at REPEC.

His recent work has been on strategies for the growth and performance of high-technology firms.[8]

One of his latest books, The Foundations of Small Business Enterprise, was published by Routledge in 2007 [9]
