SUMMER MESSAGE OF THE SCIENTIFIC DIRECTOR
Distinguished ERENET Members and Friends , The summer season came to an end without eliminating the EURO crisis. The views of the new French President have come no closer to those of the German Chancellor, while it appears that Greece has not refunded a single cent to its debtors. Policy makers took shorter or longer holidays and Parliamentary PMs may have spent more time with their families or pursued their hobbies. It is hard to tell. The situation in the Middle East, especially in Syria, is frightening. The only positive event worth mentioning has been the 2012 London Summer Olympic Games with over 10,000 athletes participating. Construction in preparation for the Games included considerable redeployment aiming towards a better urban environment. Despite the huge amount of money spent (about GBP 9.3 billion), the citizens of Great Britain, especially those who live in London and its suburbs, will benefit from the excellent infrastructure, facilities and the clean air of the Olympic Park. It has been constructed on the former ugly and run-down site in East London. The Members of the ERENET have also spent their summer holidays and enjoyed the live coverage from the London Olimpic Games. As the new school year is nerly here, teachers recharged with sunshine are starting to address the curriculum. Only the warning signs of climate change are casting a shadow over all our future. In the Artic usually warm weather has meant that frozen territory six times greater that Hungary has been detached from the normaly ice bound area: In Northern Hungarian mountain lakes, Mediterranean jellyfishes have appeared and on the Hungarian Great Plane unwary visitors have to avoid scorpions. They were never preciously native to the area. The 1.3 billion cattle – half of them supplying McDonald with Big Mac and other junk-food – emit methane gas while ruminating. It is roughly equivalent to the same pollution as that provided by gases from the exhaust of the average car. Where are you going mankind? Will you destroy our Earth? What about the inheritance of our grandchildren? Some difficult questions need urgent answers. This ERENET PROFILE is a unique publication. The first three papers are devoted the development of family businesses in Hungary, Slovenia and Turkey. These are followed by SME-related papers, which highlights the SME sector in Serbia and summarizes the FDI in Albania. Dr. Szabó Antal Scientific Director of ERENET
