The European Commission has launched the 2015 edition of the European Enterprise Promotion Awards, a competition to reward the most imaginative and successful initiatives from public bodies and public-private partnerships which support entrepreneurship and small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs).

The six entry categories are: promoting entrepreneurial spirit; investing in skills; improving the business environment; supporting the internationalisation of businesses; supporting the development of green markets and resource efficiency; and responsible and inclusive entrepreneurship.

The competition is organised across all EU member states and Iceland, Norway, Serbia and Turkey. In June, the two national winners from each country will be selected to compete at the European level and represent their country. Participants’ ultimate aim is to win the Grand Jury Prize, which will be announced in Luxembourg on November 19, which is part of the SME Assembly, the main European SME Week event.
