Boost for SMEs and cross-border business
In Panorama 75, the Winter 2020 edition, an article on INTER VENTURES was written by the AEBR (Association of European Border Regions), the advisory partner in the INTER VENTURES project. In the article the aim of INTER VENTURES, promoting the internationalization of Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs), is covered, as well as the steps the European Commission has taken in the last year on strengthening SMEs.
From the recent Strategy that the European Commission published in March 2020, it appears that the European Commission recognizes the complex and burdensome experiences for SMEs that operate internationally. The Commission, together with partners, is employing various means to improve the status for SMEs in Europe. INTER VENTURES, and the partners in the project are one part of the bigger action.
