I would be most grateful for some assistance. ++++++++++++++++++++++++++ Sylvia, The OECD is organising a conference in Bologna in June 2000 on the theme "Enhancing the Competitiveness of SMEs in the Global Economy: Strategies and Policies". It is expected that government ministers attending the conference will be asked to approve a document known as 'The Bologna Charter', which will contain principles on ways for SMEs to reap the benefits of the global economy and technological progress. As yet the charter does not exist, but it will be prepared by an OECD working party during the coming months. Although there is no document available yet, the intention to produce the "Bologna Charter" has been widely referred to, so possibly it is this that your enquirer has heard about. Some information about the conference is already available on the SME page of the OECD website at: http://www.oecd.org/dsti/sti/industry/smes/index.htm. This information will be expanded as the conference draws closer.
