"The financial and economic crisis has deepened the problems for many potential entrepreneurs, especially in the first three years of business, and highlights how the development of profitable SMEs by both men and women can help Member States to achieve more sustainable economic growth. At present, we are trying to row back the current of talented young Europeans who feel that emigration is the only means by which they can prosper. The EU project must assist their young, potential entrepreneurs and their SMEs in order to assist their own recovery. Women are still hugely underrepresented as entrepreneurs in the EU and consideration must be given to the positive steps taken in the US in order to tackle the issue of under-representation. The report recognises that certain factors contribute to unequal representation. Many women feel that they do not have the opportunity to start their own business as that would mean juggling their role as carers, mothers and professionals – the crisis has acted as a catalyst to reinforced barriers to SME creation; we must ensure that the option to create SMEs remains viable, as they are the lifeblood of the EU economy."@en1
