The SME and Enterprise Ministers of the OECD countries gathered in Paris to discuss how they can help businesses become more crisis-resistant. The ministerial meeting, held for the first time since 2018, was preceded by international research organized by the OECD Economic Advisory Board (BIAC) and a special professional forum, chaired by Patrik Kovács, Co-Chairman of VOSZ and head of the BIAC SME Committee.

The SME Ministerial Conference is outstanding because the OECD countries represent 65% of the world’s GDP and such a forum provides an opportunity to determine policy directions years in advance. SMEs constantly struggle with many challenges, among which the introduction of green and digital technologies, crisis resistance, financial stability and mental health also play a very significant role. 48% of business leaders are not sure that they would survive another crisis like COVID, so it is of great importance that, in addition to ministerial-level decision-makers, the European Commission, the WTO, the ILO (the UN’s labor organization), the World Bank, the European We were able to discuss the current challenges with the involvement of the Development Bank and a number of key international actors, as well as the entrepreneurs themselves – informed Patrik Kovács, Co-President of VOSZ.
