    The revised SBA for Europe marks a decisive new stage in the political recognition of SMEs and above all of micro-enterprises. This EESC opinion recommends that the European institutions, Member States and the regions adopt it as the basis for their SMEs policies as well as for their economic and industrial policies. It insists on recognising the SBA's "Think Small First" principle when drafting legislation for SMEs. The EESC notes that the SBA will not succeed unless a genuine "multi-stakeholder and multilevel governance partnership" is established where economic and social partners and all representative public and private stakeholders are involved in political discussions concerning SMEs.

    EESC opinion: Small Business Act
  • The European Economic and Social Committee (EESC) recommends that Digital Innovation Hubs be reinforced to boost the EU’s innovation capacity as part of the transition to a sustainable future. DIHs provide valuable infrastructure for small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) that might otherwise struggle to become greener and more digital.  

  • En un Dictamen de iniciativa, el Comité Económico y Social Europeo (CESE) recomienda promover el uso de deuda híbrida para financiar a las pymes. Esto diversificaría las fuentes de financiación y reduciría la dependencia de los préstamos bancarios, al tiempo que fomentaría la inversión y apoyaría la unión de los mercados de capitales.
