Mission & Goals
The purpose of “SME Europe” (Small and Medium Entrepreneurs of Europe) is to shape EU policies in a more SME friendly way. SMEs are the backbone of the European economy as it is especially them that create sustainable jobs, growth and prosperity. SME Europe is, by its statutes, an integral part of the European People’s Party (EPP). It serves as the official SME business association within the EPP network, representing the interests of small and medium-sized enterprises and contributing to policy development in line with EPP values. https://www.smeeurope.eu/
