SME Week Newsletter 2020: Issue #5

Tags: , , , , , , , , , ,

In the interests of the safety and wellbeing of our community, the decision has been taken by the German Presidency of the Council in cooperation with the European Commission to transform the SME Assembly 2020 into an online event.

The event will feature the usual array of top-level speakers, panels and masterclasses, and will feature a highly curated programme designed for the European enterprise community to share, innovate and continue to build the resilience that has helped us get through the unprecedented challenges presented by COVID-19.

In this edition we will also be sharing the latest EEPA 2020 announcements, including introductions to some of our top finalists, as well as a closer look at the projects awarded Special Mentions by the 2020 jury.

Don’t forget that we also want to hear YOUR stories, how are you facing these challenging times? Share your news and updates to be featured in an upcoming issue or on the Promoting Enterprise News Portal.

The new SME strategy needs you and your input!

At the SME Assembly 2019 we collected and harvested ideas and topics raised throughout the sessions that address the 3 main challenges:

  • Sustainability for SMEs in the context of the Green Deal and climate change
  • Digitisation for SMEs
  • SME broad-based growth

We are also looking for topics that you feel are important and that go beyond the 3 challenges. The Assembly harvest has been shared in the Online SME Assembly LinkedIn group so do not hesitate to join and invite others with interesting ideas and thoughts to share!

By joining the Online SME Assembly LinkedIn group you will have the chance to be part of the SME Strategy Exchange, during which follow up questions are being shared and where your ideas matter and are needed to spark further discussion.
