EU SME Centre in China – phase IV (SMP-COSME-2021-SMECC)

Building up on the achievements of previous phases, especially the most recent phase III, the EU SME Centre in China phase IV will continue to support SMEs with a desire to enter or expand their operations in China. Specifically, it will provide general business and legal support services, including information about market opportunities and market conditions in China and networking opportunities with relevant potential partners. It will also offer new business support services that reflect, on the one hand, the needs of SMEs in the post COVID-19 pandemic and, on the other hand, the new EU policy priorities and the state of EU-China economic relations. Moreover, the Centre will strengthens the coordination of China-based EU business support actions and develop active partnerships and synergies with business networks in the EU and in China.
