British Government: Strive to promote the development of small and medium-sized printing companies

Since the British government announced that it would tilt its government procurement plans to SMEs, the printing companies in the UK could also get more chances to win the bids just like those big companies. The British government stated that it is important for SMEs to obtain orders in the public sector. These valuable opportunities cannot be reserved for only large companies. In order to ensure that the goal of handing over 25% of procurement contracts to SMEs, the British government will remove regulations that restrict small businesses from obtaining government orders.

It is understood that the increase in winning bids is only part of the many initiatives announced by the British government on November 1 that will help small businesses develop and encourage entrepreneurial operations. At the heart of these initiatives are three new policies for small and medium-sized enterprises, which include: Giving SMEs more financial support; streamlining the process of cooperation between companies and the public sector; and encouraging ordinary citizens to start their own businesses.

Mark Prisk, the UK’s Minister of Commerce and Industry, said: “As a former entrepreneur, I know the importance of the development of SMEs in the UK. My goal in entering the government is to help ordinary people realize their entrepreneurial dreams, and I believe the government today. The decision will become a reality tomorrow.” In addition, the British Prime Minister David Cameron has appointed former Minister of Trade and Industry David Cameron as the head of the project. Cameron said: "We must do everything we can to help and promote the development of SMEs. They can contribute nearly 60% of jobs and half of GDP to the United Kingdom." "As I said to the British Industry Federation, companies It has a vital role to play in enhancing our economic vitality.” “The government has taken effective actions to provide support for small businesses, but if we want to make the UK the most suitable country for the survival and development of small businesses, we need to continue our efforts. ."

Lord Young’s first task after taking office was to submit a report to the government on how to help small businesses develop and encourage people to start businesses. This report will focus on how government agencies can strengthen their interaction with small businesses, including how to provide more opportunities for SMEs through the reform of government procurement procedures. He will also find effective ways for the government to encourage entrepreneurship, reduce the burden, eliminate growth barriers, and improve the efficiency of communication with SMEs. LordYoung said: "I am very happy to accept this appointment and I am willing to clear the development barriers for small businesses and help them achieve better and faster growth."
