Day 2 Parallel Session 6 Room CC13
Description
Current policy frameworks often fail to capture the diversity of SMEs and entrepreneurs by considering an average firm. This can result in significant complexity and administrative burden, as well as be ineffective in changing corporate behaviours. Delivering on ambitious recovery plans and long-term reform objectives requires crosscutting and coherent approaches across the diverse policy areas that influence SME prospects and outcomes. This means adopting an SME and entrepreneur lens in policy design and delivery, fostering policy coherence across levels of government, better evaluation tools, and active engagement with SMEs and entrepreneurs.
