OiTBC for MSMES
OBSERVATORY AND INITIAL TRAINING ON BUSINESS CRISIS
FOR MSMES
Project
Project
The European Directive 2019/1023 introduces new standard rules for the preventive restructuring, insolvency and debt relief of companies in financial difficulties. The aim is to enable companies to restructure promptly and avoid bankruptcy by promoting a ‘second chance’ culture.
This Directive harmonises the rules on restructuring processes and insolvency situations to consolidate the European single market and a culture of rescuing companies in crisis. It includes rules for pre-emptive restructuring, early warning tools, debt relief procedures and measures to increase the effectiveness of restructuring, and insolvency and debt relief processes. The objective of OiTBC-MSMES is to set up an observatory on how the Directive is implemented in the main EU countries and to organise dissemination and involvement events for partners, with a particular focus on micro and small enterprises. The objective is to raise awareness among small businesses on the regulatory obligations and the opportunities for good organisational and management practices resulting from the adequate and timely dissemination of the Directive.
OiTBC-MSMES wants to support micro and small enterprises in the process of regulatory change, making them aware of how this change represents an opportunity to implement or improve business performance management. To this end, it is paramount to use the tool of vocational training, which makes it possible to transmit the necessary knowledge and skills effectively and continuously. Therefore, the project perfectly aligns with the sectoral priority “Enhancing the attractiveness of vocational training”.
General objective

🎙️ Sérgio Castro from Oporto Forte on the importance of the OITBC-MSMES project! 🇪🇺🇵🇹
We continue to explore our partners' perspectives on the Erasmus+ project. Today, we focus on being prepared to face business crises. 🛡️💼
Sérgio Castro: "We're very grateful to participate in the OITBC project. Its topics and proposals are crucial for the corporate system. Companies must be advised on how to act during crisis periods. It's easy when everything is going well, but when tough times come, how should one behave? This project is essential for providing guidance and tools to companies to know what to do and whom to turn to. People need to be prepared for these kinds of situations. That's why we're so excited to be part of this initiative!" 🌟🔍

🎙️ Emilio Sora from CE Consulting talks about OITBC-MSMES resources! 🇪🇺🇪🇸
We continue to explore our Erasmus+ project initiatives. Today, we're discussing the training tools we're developing for micro and small enterprises. 📚💻
Emilio Sora: "We asked ourselves: do small, medium, and micro enterprises know about the useful tools resulting from the EU Directive? Unfortunately, our research revealed they don't. That's why, together with our consortium partners, we're creating valuable resources: a training webinar and free informative documents, all available on our platform. I invite all companies to register for the webinar, which will be held in each of the countries involved in the European project. Don't hesitate to contact us for any needs regarding the directive and the tools at your disposal. All documents will be freely accessible on our platform. Take advantage of this opportunity!" 🚀🔍

🎙️ Patrice De Micco from CasArtigiani Arezzo talks about the OITBC-MSMES report! 🇪🇺🇮🇹
We're diving deeper into our Erasmus+ project results. Today, we're focusing on the report analyzing micro and small enterprises' understanding of EU Directive 2019/1023. 💼📊
Patrice De Micco: "Our research involved over 170 companies across Italy, Portugal, Bulgaria, and Spain 🇮🇹🇵🇹🇧🇬🇪🇸. The findings are eye-opening: 80% of businesses aren't familiar with the directive, yet there's significant interest in the topic. Companies recognize the importance of preventive plans to identify crises and are aware of early warning indicators, though they lack detailed knowledge. There's dissatisfaction with national regulations and a call for EU intervention. Training is crucial: businesses want to learn more about the directive and how to tackle financial crises, seeing them as potential opportunities. Our project directly addresses this need!" 💡🔍
