data-start=\"2132\" data-end=\"2174\">How does business development contribute to company growth?<\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"2176\" data-end=\"2268\">On the other hand, business development focuses on creating new opportunities and achieving sustainable market expansion. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2270\" data-end=\"2280\">This includes:<\/p>\n<ul data-start=\"2282\" data-end=\"2404\">\n<li
