"I welcomed this document because only if the EU succeeds in strengthening the competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises (SME), and adopts measures that reduce the administrative burdens on SMEs, will the potential of European entrepreneurs be developed and the EU economy begin to grow again. Industry plays a key role in the European economy. The manufacturing industry generates 25 % of the jobs in the private sector of the European Union and accounts for 80 % of private research and development. All agree that, if the EU wants to recover from the crisis, it should enhance the competitiveness of EU firms of all sizes. For this an environment that favours new ideas and new businesses is required. This kind of business friendly environment is not well developed in Europe also because industrial policies in the Member States differ significantly from one another. The reality, though, is that to achieve sustainable growth and to kick-start the economy, as requested by the Europe 2020 strategy, coherent and coordinated industrial policies from the Member States as well as deep structural changes of the EU industrial system are very important and necessary."@en1
