The first goal is increased competitiveness of small and medium enterprises in Bulgaria, the second - specialization in high-tech industries and knowledge-intensive services, and the third - regional equality.

The document has been prepared on the basis of an analysis of the situation of small and medium enterprises in Bulgaria in the period 2008-2018 and consultations with business and local authorities.

In Bulgaria, small and medium enterprises contribute to 75.7% of total employment and 65.3% of added value in the economy in 2018, the document reads.
