The European SME Week (ESW) is a pan-European campaign aiming to promote entrepreneurship in Europe. It helps existing entrepreneurs find information on available support and tries to encourage more people to set up their own businesses.
Running until 20 November, the conference will explore the theme ‘SMEs: Shaping Europe’s Future’ and bring together entrepreneurs, policymakers, and experts to discuss challenges and opportunities for the SME sector.
Key features include the European Enterprise Promotion Awards, recognising excellence in entrepreneurship, and the Youth Start-Up Competition, which showcases innovative business ideas from young talents. Interactive workshops will focus on critical issues, such as adapting to sustainable practices, mitigating the impacts of extreme weather, and navigating digital transformations.
Participants from across Europe and beyond can engage in person or online via the Promoting Enterprise app, ensuring inclusivity and broad access to insights, networking, and knowledge sharing.
Stay tuned for updates and join the conversation about building a thriving future for European SMEs. For more information and to register, visit the official event page.
