"The crisis that has hit all sectors of the economy in recent years has had particularly profound effects on small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). Given the importance of SMEs in Europe – in terms of employment percentages (around 67% compared with 32% in large corporations) and added value for the economy (just under 60%) – I think that stimulating all sectors of small and medium-sized enterprise is of particular importance. The report drafted by Ms Yannakoudakis concentrates specifically on women entrepreneurs and puts forward various measures designed to add weight to this sector.
I believe that there has never been such a good time to support the proposed measures, while particularly underlining the importance of promoting – particularly in new Member States – the good practices already in place in other countries. In addition, I think it is worth highlighting the support guaranteed by the Commission for female entrepreneurship and businesses owned by women (Regulation (EC) No 800/2008, Section 3), given the positive effect this could have in the more general context of measures designed to stimulate economic recovery in Europe."@en1
