Crisis Costs for European SMEs: the EESC Study
Following the publication of the study “Crisis Costs for European SMEs” by the European Economic and Social Committee (EESC), INSME is proud to host Dr. Francesco Camonita to discuss this remarkable research on 20 September, 2023.
The COVID-19 pandemic has become the landmark for one of the greatest economic shocks ever experienced. As such, many SMEs were exposed to financial and employment-related losses. However, not all industry sectors suffered same negative rates of income or job disruptions. In addition, the war in Ukraine has become the trigger for a new wave of economic crisis for all business sectors and sizes.
The objective of the study and this upcoming webinar is to develop and discuss a systematic classification of COVID-19 (and international crisis)-related impacts on SMEs. Register here!
