"Madam President, according to the statistics, the financial and economic crisis has exacerbated the problems for many women entrepreneurs, especially in the first three years of business. This is why we encourage the Commission, Member States and regional and local authorities to make better use of the funding opportunities available, such as the European Progress Microfinance Facility, which provides micro-credits of up to EUR 25 000 to micro-enterprises and those wishing to start their own micro-enterprise.
For women to become entrepreneurs, it is important that they have equal access to traditional business networking opportunities and to information and communication technologies
Another key consideration for working women is the availability and quality of care services for children under the age of three.
I call on the Commission and Member States to pay particular attention to the situation of women over the age of 50, to help them set up their own companies and to consider the creation of mentoring and support schemes for them."@en1
