SUMMARY:CyclOps training event: "How to enhance Small and Medium Entreprise
 s participation in Public Procurement"
DESCRIPTION:Small and Medium Enterprises (SME) participation in public proc
 urement is still very limited compared to their role in national economies
 \, where they represent 99% of all businesses. Several barriers make it di
 fficult for SME to participate in and win tenders.\n\n\nThe Public Procure
 ment Use Case aims to identify the limiting factors faced by SME when acce
 ssing public procurement and provide the tools to assess the impact of mod
 ifying them. These tools would support both the EU and national policy mak
 ers on the promotion of SME in public procurement\, as well as contracting
  authorities willing to enhance the participation of SME in their tenderin
 g procedures\, and also SME themselves in the identification of those proc
 edures where they are most likely to succeed.\n\n\nThis session training w
 ill focus on three key elements:\n\n 	The tools to evaluate and estimate t
 he participation and success of SME in public procurement procedures.\n 	T
 he use of the the Public Procurement Data Space (PPDS) as an essential d
 ata source.\n 	How the Use Case leverages groundbreaking technology develo
 ped by CyclOps.\n\nThe session will be delivered by Alba Colomer Padrosa\,
  Public Procurement Expert\, and Maria Font Sánchez\, Expert Engineer\, b
 oth at NTTDES.
