On the 2 May 2006, ESBA, the European Small Business Alliance, hosted its 9th Annual Small Business Event: SMEs Go International. The morning session entailed a dialogue between delegates and representatives of the EU Institutions. Keynote speakers included Maive Rute, Director of DG Enterprise and Industry, who addressed the issue of whether SMEs really are at the heart of the New Lisbon Strategy and colleagues, Ingrid Valentini-Wanka and Jonathan Claridge, from DG Trade. Following a Lunch Meeting at the European Parliament, hosted by Edit Herczog MEP, Vice-Chairwoman of the Intergroup on SMEs, four entrepreneurs and a researcher presented interesting best practice cases of SMEs ‘going international.’ Outgoing ESBA President Brian A Prime and his successor, Tina Sommer, also took the floor to open and close a successful day of discussion. A dinner was held in honour of Brian A Prime, who has served the SME cause in Europe for over 30 years.
