EEA Webinar: ‘Ensuring Sound Economic Recovery for SMEs’

The aim of this webinar organised by the European Enterprise Alliance will be to address the most significant obstacles and red tape that hamper economic recovery for the most vulnerable businesses. The purpose of this event is to facilitate an open debate with European stakeholders and representatives of governments, ensuring that any government-led support programme will address the actual needs of businesses and support their growth.

In the first part of this event (45min), policy and regulatory experts and practitioners will present the current state of economic performance among small and medium-sized businesses and entrepreneurs in Central and Eastern Europe. They will provide an overview of administrative and regulatory burdens that hamper economic recovery for SMEs. Subjects of employment and tax regulations, administrative processes, and licensing, among others, will be discussed. Additionally, speakers will provide a European perspective by discussing barriers existing within the European Single Market area.
