15 November 1993 - 15 November 1993
 
The Commission of the European Communities will convene a second European Conference on Craft Trades and Small Enterprises, in October 1994, in Berlin. The meeting will seek to determine the most effective actions to be taken in the favour of craft trades and very small businesses in order to help them derive full benefit from the opportunities offered by the creation of the internal market.

This action results from a Council Decision of 14.6.1993 (Decision 93/379/EEC) establishing a programme of Community measures to intensify activities in several priority areas of Community policy for enterprise (in particular SMEs) and to ensure the continuity of this policy in a number of fields.

A series of nine preparatory colloquia, each dealing with a specialized theme, will precede the Conference. The dates and topics of the first four colloquia are as follows. The addresses in each case are sources of further information, not the location of the meeting.
