The Project

SMEs are the economic engine of Europe and social buffer generating jobs. Export outside of Europe is a great opportunity: 600,000 SMEs export to extra-EU markets, generating 500 billion € (35% of total EU exports) and creating 6 million jobs. However, the socio-economic potential of EU SMEs is underexploited: only 18% of European SMEs export to extra-EU markets and are truly international.
