#ThinkSmallFirst
EU legislation must be workable for #SMEs in practice - SG @VCWillems at the @Euractiv panel:
➡️ Apply #ThinkSmallFirst consistently
➡️ Set realistic, proportionate requirements
➡️ Allow sufficient transition time
➡️ Strengthen impact assessments across EU Institutions

EU is home to 26.17M companies, 24.5M with <10 employees. Yet rules are often designed for 44,358 large firms. SMEs don’t want exceptions – they are the majority & should be the rule. SMEunited insists on turning #ThinkSmallFirst into practice - @VCWillems at @Parlimag #SMEsForum

The European Competitiveness Fund can boost 🇪🇺 #resilience & #competitiveness with #SMEs fully on board.
SMEunited calls for
➡️ #SME role in governance
➡️ 20% per window for SME projects
➡️ 30% #InvestEU guarantee for SMEs
➡️ Dedicated SME support in programmes
#ThinkSmallFirst

EU leaders reaffirm #ThinkSmallFirst a positive signal for Europe’s #SMEs. Reacting to 19 March conclusions, President Galli welcomed renewed efforts on #simplification & burden reduction.

➡️ SMEs sustain rural jobs, services & heritage
➡️ Cut admin burden & energy pressure
➡️ Strengthen short supply chains & #ThinkSmallFirst ➡️ Tackle unfair trading practices #UTP
