AGP Executive Report

Last update: 12 hours ago

Small-business skills: A UK-backed campaign is asking firms to help create 200,000 work-experience places for 14- to 16-year-olds, with 50,000 targeted from small businesses. Digital resilience: Microsoft says services are restored after a day-long global outage disrupted Outlook and Teams. For firms that rely on one provider for core communications, the disruption was a sharp reminder to plan for outages. EU exports: Small and medium-sized firms accounted for 11.8% and 9% of EU services exports outside the bloc in 2024, compared with 41.7% for large enterprises. Access to finance: EU support will help CDP and Banca Etica unlock €30 million for microfinance in the Western Balkans. Regulation: Retailers warn the proposed EU Digital Fairness Act could add compliance costs for smaller firms, calling for proportionate rules.
