So fruitful information!

Mid-term review of #horizoneurope is now. We need to think more in terms of where the #deal is for the #SME and #midcaps with the #greentransition. SMEs and Mid-Caps can not only go, but also lead the way. They don't need to satisfy investors, but they live in the middle of the society, and don't fly over it... and they also want a good future for their children. But with a successful company, not an insolvent one.
