We present the application of an
unsupervised snap drift neural network (USDNN) in
the context of market prediction for small and
medium enterprises (SMEs). The method is applied to
small firm data collected from twenty seven
participating SMEs across greater London. The
motivation of this research is aimed at the
significance of artificial neural networks in
addressing the perceived failure associated to smaller
firms irrespective of area of operation and business
type. Hence, the work presented here provides crucial
information for creating requirements for a small
firm specific model that can be used to support
growth or survival in predefined markets
