The EEN will provide dedicated Sustainability Advisors and other sustainability services.</p><p>Traditional SMEs are often uncertain in their choice of digital business strategy, have problems tapping large repositories of data available to larger companies and shy away from advanced AI-based tools and applications. Such SMEs will be supported by a network of up to <a href="https://ec.europa.eu/digital-single-market/en/digital-innovation-hubs">240 Digital Innovation Hubs (DIH)</a>, in each region of Europe.</p><p>With the support of the Digital Europe Programme, the Commission will develop digital crash courses for SME employees to become proficient in areas such as AI, cybersecurity or blockchain, building on the experiences of the digital skills and jobs coalition platform.</p><p>The Commission will also launch a programme for ‘digital volunteers’ to allow young skilled people and experienced seniors to share their digital competence with traditional businesses.</p><h2>Reducing regulatory burden and improving market access</h2><p>The SME strategy proposes <a href="/smes/growing-and-scaling-sme/improving-smes-access-marktets_en?prefLang=de">actions</a> to remove regulatory and practical obstacles to doing business or scaling up within the Single Market and beyond. The <a href="/smes/challenges-and-resilience/late-payment_en?prefLang=de">Late Payment Directive</a> strengthens businesses' rights to prompt payment. <a href="/smes/sme-strategy-and-sme-friendly-business-conditions/sme-test_en?prefLang=de">With the SME test</a>, the Commission assesses the costs and benefits of new legislation for SMEs. The 'think small principle' promotes the use of one-stop-shops, electronic procedures and other measures to help SMEs comply with the legislation or to access EU programmes.</p><p>The Commission’s priority is also to ensure that enterprises make the most out of cross border activities, both within the EU Single Market and outside the EU. </p><p>More on <a href="/smes/growing-and-scaling-sme/improving-smes-access-marktets_en?prefLang=de">SME internationalisation</a>.</p><h2>Improves access to financing</h2><p>Access to finance is one of the most pressing issues for many small enterprises. The Commission works on improving the financing environment for SMEs and provides information on funding. </p><p>More on <a href="/access-finance_en?prefLang=de">access to finance</a>.</p><h2>An EU country partnership for delivery</h2><p>To deliver results, the new SME Strategy will be underpinned by a robust partnership between the EU and EU countries, including regional and local authorities.</p><p>The <a href="/smes/sme-strategy-and-sme-friendly-business-conditions/sme-envoys-network_en?prefLang=de">EU SME Envoy</a> will work together with national envoys to ensure and monitor the implementation of the strategy and the application of the ‘think small first principles’ in all EU policies.</p><p>The <a href="/smes/sme-strategy-and-sme-friendly-business-conditions/sme-assembly_en?prefLang=de">SME Assembly</a>, the most significant event for SMEs in Europe, presents different approaches to promoting SME entrepreneurship.</p><p>The <a href="/smes/growing-and-scaling-sme/european-sme-week_en?prefLang=de">European SME Week</a> is a pan-European campaign consisting of events throughout the whole year. The main event of the European SME Week is organised every autumn together with the SME Assembly and the European enterprise promotion awards ceremony.</p><p>The <a href="/smes/sme-strategy-and-sme-friendly-business-conditions/sme-performance-review_en?prefLang=de">SME performance review</a> monitors and assesses countries' progress in implementing the Small Business Act (SBA) every year. The review brings comprehensive information on the performance of SMEs in EU countries and other partner countries. It consists of 2 parts: an annual report on European SMEs and SBA country fact sheets.</p><p>To help create a business-friendly environment and boost SMEs' competitiveness on a regional level as well,
