The Commission has so far presented three communications, namely: ‘Industrial Policy: Reinforcing competitiveness’, ‘Small Business, Big World – A new partnership to help SMEs seize global opportunities’, and ‘Minimising regulatory burden for SMEs – Adapting EU regulation to the needs of micro-enterprises’. With these three pillars, the Commission aimed to help SMEs within the EU to remain in business and strengthen their competitiveness. Approximately 23 million SMEs operate within the EU, employing an estimated 75 million people, which represents 70 % of jobs in the EU. To further enhance the competitiveness of SMEs, there is a need for structural changes in the economy, technical innovation, resource efficiency and the creation of a business environment that enables European SMEs to hold their own when competing in the global market. A vital tool in this context is the governance model provided by the Enterprise Europe Network, as are measures to reduce the administrative and regulatory burdens on SMEs further and facilitate the provision of tailored support. Building relationships with chambers of commerce and industry and other relevant stakeholders is also essential."@en1
