What is a must and what is a "no-no"? Over the years this has of course like anything else changed - and not at least due to the digitalization we see everywhere.

In a recent survey among the SME Academy Network members, Brussels was in top position when it comes to organizing conferences and other events and SME Academy is currently planning activities both in Brussels and online.
Given EU Events marked interest in SMEs and training, this partnership is a natural asset to help us gathering and sharing relevant events coming from or of interest to the SME world in Brussels and the rest of Europe.
