Survey: Make Your Voice Heard in the Next SME Position Paper

26 March 2025

At the EU SME Centre and the European Union Chamber of Commerce in China, the preparatory work for the development of the 2025/2026 Inter-Chamber SME Working Group Position Paper has started. We now invite European SMEs in China to take a 10-minute survey.

The Position Paper is an annual signature publication, as it is used in exchanges with European and Chinese policymakers to advance the interests of the European small business community in China and improve their market access/operating conditions in the country. The Paper is developed through a bottom-up approach, with European industry players actively contributing to its drafting. 

Why you should take part

We would like your input to ensure that the paper accurately reflects the concerns and recommendations of European SMEs operating in China. Your feedback will help us advocate for a better business environment for SMEs in China.

More on the SME Position Paper

The Inter-Chamber SME Working Group Position Paper is the product of an annual process of extensive feedback gathering from European SMEs in China conducted through the Inter-Chamber SME Working Group. The Position Paper is our main vehicle for SME advocacy, as it contains the key concerns and recommendations from European SMEs on a given year.

The 2024/2025 Inter-Chamber SME Working Group Position Paper outlined policy and regulatory developments affecting European SMEs in China throughout the past year. Its key recommendations aimed to address issues encountered by small and medium-sized enterprises, including in access to financing, timely payments, and IPR protection.
