Book Synopsis ERDF Support for SME Competitiveness by :
Download or read book ERDF Support for SME Competitiveness written by and published by . This book was released on 2022 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The assessment whether the European Regional Development Fund helped improve the competitiveness of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in the period 2014-2020 found that Member States aimed at funding a large number of SMEs rather than targeting the key factors that limit SME competitiveness. Most calls funded specific productive investments with no lasting impact on competitiveness. Projects were mostly awarded through non-competitive selection procedures and grants. The support stimulated SMEs' willingness to invest, though several would have made the same investments without public funding. In some cases, the support negatively affected the economic prospects of other SMEs competing in the same markets. We recommend improving the design of SME calls, reviewing ERDF selection procedures for grant awards, and prioritising the use of repayable aid.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 50 years of fostering trade competitiveness around the globe generated a wealth of experience and expertise. ITC gained invaluable insights and learned many lessons in supporting SMEs in developing, least developed and transition economies to enhance their competitiveness and to internationalise. While ITC's mandate has remained unchanged over the last five decades, the trade landscape has altered radically and with it the manner in which ITC has delivered its trade-related technical assistance. The rise of a multi-polar global economy gave way to new trade, market and investment opportunities. A technological revolution transformed the way business is being transacted around the world. The multilateral, regional and bilateral trade regime matured and new governance patterns in international trade emerged in the form of supply chain trade

This book was released on 2013 with total page 85 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this guide is to extract policy lessons from the past decades of Structural Fund, national and regional support for SMEs into a comprehensive guide with the aim to help ERDF managing authorities and regional penholders of any RIS design a policy mix that supports enterprises in maximising the objectives and opportunities of a RIS. This guide draws not only on SME specific policy experiences, but spans across a wide range of policies, including research, innovation, cluster, state aid, internal market, education and training (the issue of financial instruments will be covered in more detail in separate guidance). This guide highlights, in particular, that SME competitiveness in Europe relies heavily on innovation and thus the successful implementation of a National/Regional Strategy for Smart Specialisation (RIS) and the quality of its design and delivery mechanisms for financial and non-financial support services. In line with the 2014-2020 ERDF thematic priorities, these support services should enhance R&D+I activities or strengthen enterprise competitiveness. This guide provides thoughts, tips and ideas on how to achieve this. -- EU Bookshop.

Book excerpt: Limited potential of financial, organizational, human and technology resources doesn't provide SMEs sufficient opportunities to access information and knowledge necessary in competition. Observing the methods and tools used by large companies, this book studies the conditions under which it would be possible to provide support to SMEs at a lower cost and with greater methodological and organizational backing. The author presents the proposed solution, Benchmarking Collaborative Network, which would provide SMEs access to information about their level of competitiveness, the key areas for the creation of competitive advantage and the activities required to achieve this advantage.
Book Synopsis A Road Map to the Development of European SME Networks by : Agostino Villa
Download or read book A Road Map to the Development of European SME Networks written by Agostino Villa and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2008-10-03 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Recent European Commission studies recall the urgency of promoting new and more robust Small and Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs), due to the rise of enormous global markets and the emergence of a new industrial system originating from the distinctly different business culture of the Far East. A “road map” for the survival of SMEs in Europe must be based on an accurate analysis of the most significant causes behind the weaknesses of SMEs. Several research projects conclude that SMEs must join together to create “networks”. Yet the majority of the existing networks suffer from a lack of real coordination: it is clear that a method for analyzing the governance of the network and its collaboration efficiency is essential for assuring effective performance. “A Road Map to the Development of European SME Networks” addresses this task: describing the method of analysis, allowing comparisons to be made between SME networks in different European countries, and providing information on a supporting web site.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasing annual investments in small- and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) in developing countries by $1 trilling would yield disproportionate dividends in terms of progress towards the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), while also delivering healthy returns for investors. Yet, less than 1% of the tens of trillions of dollars that global asset managers have under management is currently invested in developing country SMEs. This edition of SME Competitiveness Outlook explains how best to scale up private sector investment in developing country SMEs for sustainable development impact. It identifies four main streams through which investors, facilitators and enterprises can form partnerships for sustainable development, and it makes a strong case for investing in small businesses to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals.

Book Synopsis Sme Competitiveness Outlook 2023 by : United Nations Publications
Download or read book Sme Competitiveness Outlook 2023 written by United Nations Publications and published by UN. This book was released on 2023-12-13 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This SME Competitiveness Outlook assesses the impact of conflict and fragility on business performance. It unveils a Fragility Exposure Index, and shows that fragility, as experienced by firms, can be reduced by 25% if they take actions to reinforce competitiveness. These include engaging with business support organizations, improving financial management and retaining skilled staff. The report finds that direct support to firms is helpful and must be complemented by reforms to promote peace and stability and improve the business environment. Humanitarian partners, development agencies and capable state institutions must collaborate, coordinate and have a deep understating of the context to avoid reinforcing the drivers of fragility, and maximize positive outcomes.
Book Synopsis How to Use Structural Funds for SME & Entrepreneurship Policy by : European Commission. Enterprise DG.
Download or read book How to Use Structural Funds for SME & Entrepreneurship Policy written by European Commission. Enterprise DG. and published by . This book was released on 2013 with total page 66 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Supporting SMEs and helping them to enhance their competitiveness is one of the key elements of a successful regional development policy and remains a priority also for the next funding period. Regional competitiveness and the success of smart specialisation strategies depend heavily on the 23 million SMEs all over Europe and their ability to create wealth and high quality jobs. This guidebook is intended to serve as a 'cookbook' on how to design, apply for and implement concrete projects in support of SMEs from the EU Structural Funds. It bases itself very much on previous initiatives in their area and is intended to be as hands-on as possible for all those designing a concrete project. It also provides concrete examples of good practice. We recommend this guide to policy makers, stakeholders and managing authorities especially at regional level, hoping it will inspire concrete measures to further trigger the successful use of structural funds in support of the SME-friendly policies."--Editor.

Download or read book Implementation Report on the Action Plan to Promote Entrepreneurship and Competitiveness written by and published by . This book was released on 2001 with total page 40 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Business Environment Simplification Task Force (BEST) was set up in 1997 to prepare an independent report on ways of improving legislation and removing unnecessary hindrances to the development of European businesses, particularly small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). In addition, BEST looked at a number of other areas of difficulty for SMEs. By considering all aspects of policy affecting entrepreneurship and competitiveness at European and national level, BEST aimed to focus the attention of policy-makers on the need for continuous improvement. Its recommendations, made to the European Commission in 1998, formed the basis of the 'Action Plan to Promote Entrepreneurship and Competitiveness'. This was endorsed by the Council of Ministers on 29 April 1999. The report on which this publication is based describes work that has been done by Member States, Norway, the Commission, the Council and the European Parliament towards implementing the Action Plan, which included a series of recommendations in the following priority areas: education for an entrepreneurial society and training; access to finance; access to research and innovation; improving the visibility of support services; improving public administration; and improving employment and working conditions. The conclusions and recommendations from the Implementation Report, which was compiled in close cooperation with Member States, are included here in their entirety, and will be followed up in subsequent reports.
