eBSN Members

The network is been built upon existing support mechanisms for SMEs, which are actively promoting e-business. The network is open to voluntary participation, based on the principle of sharing information and expertise in the field of e-business.

Members of this network are:

E-business experts from public administrations in EU Member States, the EU acceding and candidate countries, the EEA countries and the European Commission;
Representatives of European, national and regional initiatives, which provide support to SMEs with regards to the take-up of ICT and e-business (i.e. SMEs support networks, EICs, public-private partnerships, etc.). Only those initiatives stemming from public policies, i.e. supported by public authorities, either directly or indirectly through public-private partnerships, are eligible for participation in the European e-business support network. This is motivated by the consideration that this network is primarily meant to inform policy makers about other successful initiatives in the area of ICT and e-business promotion and eventually to influence policy making in this field.

The eBSN is open to all relevant policy initiatives in support of e-business for SMEs in the Member States, the Acceding and Candidate Countries and the EEA EFTA States, which are willing to share experience and information. A standing invitation for expression of interest to join the eBSN is available.
