Annex 1A Proposals for New Pilot Projects Ref. Ares(2017)3358018 - 04/07/2017 Annex 1a Proposals for New Pilot Projects A = PP/PA could be implemented as suggested by the Parliament; B = PP/PA might under certain conditions be fully or partially implementable but the project would need to be re-designed (it could be the case if part of the suggested action is already covered by a legal base); or more information might be needed before the Commission can assess the proposed project; C = PP/PA is fully covered by a legal base or the ideas are otherwise being addressed; D = PP/PA cannot be implemented or similar actions have already been carried out in the past. N° EP Proposal DG Commission Assessment Category Heading 1a 1 European Fund for FISMA The project might be partially implementable if changes are implemented to its scope and proposed timing B Crowfunded due, inter alia, to avoid of overlaps with a proposal on Crowdfunding to be launched in the course of 2018. Investments Proposed by Maria However, as a new related commitment was adopted (on 08/06/2017) in the CMU Mid-Term Review, the Spyraki project could be used to identify best practices in supply chain finance (e.g. invoice trading). Many start-ups and innovative SMEs are under-collateralised and fail due to short-term cash flow problems, while having a sustainable business model in the long-term. The amount needed for such a project should be reduced down to 500.000€ (250.000€). Given the clear commonalities between n°1 and n°107, the EC will consider the possibility of a joint implementation by giving a specific focus on SMEs' access to finance, should more that one of those PP be finally adopted by the EP. 2 Empowering GROW The project as such is not possible to implement, as it is necessary to understand first what kind of B European SMEs with intrapreneurship European SMEs are ready to accept and support. An intrapreneurship model which has not a culture of been validated to European SMEs cannot be imposed, and there are probably different working models of intrapreneurship intrapreneurship for SMEs. Furthermore, to be successful, the implementation of intrapreneurship in SMEs Proposed by Paul would need that those SMEs are guided and supported by a trusted local intermediary, ideally their cluster Rübig organisation. Therefore, the Commission proposes to revise the project, while keeping its objective, by dividing it in two steps: - In 2018 : conduct an evaluation and analysis of good practices in promoting and supporting intrapreneurship, with a benchmarking tool (see example of the evaluation and analysis of good practices in promoting and supporting migrant entrepreneurship): call for tender, 500.000 €. - In 2019, on the basis of the preceding study, launch projects to support the implementation of those best July 2017 - PP New 1 N° EP Proposal DG Commission Assessment Category practices in European SMEs, through cluster organisations: call for proposals, 5 projects, 2.500.000 €. 4 EPICURUS Agri- GROW The proposed PP overlaps with other actions that have already been implemented to promote Europe's D Culture gastronomical heritage as part of the tourism offer. These actions include the "Taste Europe" portal, managed Proposed by Momchil by the European Travel Commission, which aims at supporting EU tourism destinations in highlighting the Nekov, Silvia Costa unique and diverse gastronomical culture of Europe and encourage travellers, both from within and outside the continent to embark on the European culinary experience. In addition, within the framework of the European Destinations of Excellence (EDEN) competitions, in 2015 20 destinations were awarded in the category of "Tourism and Gastronomy". Finally, as part of the efforts of boosting synergies between tourism and cultural and creative industries, EU gastronomical heritage and creativity is highlighted in our joint promotional efforts. Moreover, the legal framework governing the establishment of Rural Development Programmes already now provides for possibilities to support co-operation, basic services, village renewal, and the local initiatives under LEADER. Finally, the Commission's initiative of an "EU Action for Smart Villages" which is currently being implemented also touches on aspects related to Smart Rural Tourism. 6 Mobility of Young GROW Proposed PP is fully covered by a legal base, the ideas are otherwise being addressed.

This associativism of collaboration indeed enables that together SMEs can be more innovative, create more jobs and register more Micro, Small and international trademarks and patents than they would alone. There are about 2000 statistical clusters in Medium Enterprises Europe. 38% of European jobs are based in such regional strongholds and SME participation in clusters leads Proposed by João to more innovation and growth.

We do not support the creation of clusters as similar efforts Lopes have failed in the past. To facilitate the networking and collaboration of SMEs also at European level, we have– in addition to the Cluster Internationalisation Programme, the European Strategic Cluster Partnerships for smart specialisation investments and the European Cluster Collaboration Platform, which were already mentioned in the proposal – also the Thematic Smart Specialisation Platform for Industrial Modernisation (s3platform.jrc.ec.europa.eu/industrial-modernisation) and our cluster facilitated projects for new industrial value chains (INNOSUP-1) under Horizon2020 (http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/portal/desktop/en/opportunities/h2020/topics/innosup-01-2016- 2017.html ) .

  • Time for the European Commission to Legislate on Collective Redress
    Mr Jean-Claude Juncker President of the Commission Mrs Vera Jourová Commissioner The Consumer Voice in Europe European Commission Rue de la Loi 200 B – 1049 Brussels Ref.: BEUC-X-2017-107 10 October 2017 Subject: Time for the European Commission to legislate on collective redress Dear President Juncker, Dear Commissioner Jourová, I write on behalf of BEUC, The European Consumer Organisation, to ask you to propose a binding legislative measure on collective redress. Consumer rights at EU level have come a long way over the last 20 years. However, the inability of consumers to band together to claim their rights when they have suffered detriment is one of the missing pieces of the jigsaw for EU consumers to access justice. As you are aware, Volkswagen has steadfastly refused to compensate consumers in Europe affected by the emissions scandal. This is in stark contrast to their response in the United States, where the threat of class action has proved decisive in delivering compensation for affected consumers. In your State of the Union speech a few days ago, you said that you are “shocked when consumers are knowingly and deliberately misled” and that you “call on the car industry to come clean and make it right”. We know that despite Commissioner Jourova’s efforts, which we appreciate, the company still refuses to put things right. Since the scandal broke over two years ago, VW remains adamant it will not compensate European car owners. It is now in your hands to decide whether in the future European consumers who have been victims of fraud on a large scale, or who have suffered from a trader’s unfair or illegal practices, should have a realistic chance to be compensated.

  • European Culture
    EUROPEAN CULTURE SIMEON IGNATOV - 9-TH GRADE FOREIGN LANGUAGE SCHOOL PLEVEN, BULGARIA DEFINITION • The culture of Europe is rooted in the art, architecture, film, different types of music, economic, literature, and philosophy that originated from the continent of Europe. European culture is largely rooted in what is often referred to as its "common cultural heritage”. • Because of the great number of perspectives which can be taken on the subject, it is impossible to form a single, all-embracing conception of European culture. Nonetheless, there are core elements which are generally agreed upon as forming the cultural foundation of modern Europe. One list of these elements given by K. Bochmann includes:] PREHISTORIC ART • Surviving European prehistoric art mainly comprises sculpture and rock art. It includes the oldest known representation of the human body, the Venus of Hohle Fel, dating from 40,000-35,000 BC, found in Schelklingen, Germany and the Löwenmensch figurine, from about 30,000 BC, the oldest undisputed piece of figurative art. The Swimming Reindeer of about 11,000 BCE is among the finest Magdalenian carvings in bone or antler of animals in the art of the Upper Paleolithic. At the beginning of the Mesolithic in Europe figurative sculpture greatly reduced, and remained a less common element in art than relief decoration of practical objects until the Roman period, despite some works such as the Gundestrup cauldron from the European Iron Age and the Bronze Age Trundholm sun chariot. MEDIEVAL ART • Medieval art can be broadly categorised into the Byzantine art of the Eastern Roman Empire, and the Gothic art that emerged in Western Europe over the same period.Byzantine art was strongly influenced by its classical heritage, but distinguished itself by the development of a new, abstract, aesthetic, marked by anti-naturalism and a favour for symbolism.

  • Financial Crimes, Tax Evasion and Tax Avoidance’
    Investment Migration Council (IMC) Position Paper on TAX3 Committee Report ‘Financial Crimes, Tax Evasion and Tax Avoidance’ March 2019 Investment Migration Council (IMC) cautions MEPs against phasing out industry responsible for vital investments Key Ask: IMC calls on MEPs to table a plenary amendment to the TAX3 Committee report supporting better industry standards and regulation and removing references to phasing out the citizenship and residency-by-investment industry The IMC recognise the significance of the European Parliament’s TAX3 Committee report ‘Financial Crimes, Tax Evasion and Tax Avoidance’ in promoting discussion around the Investment Migration sector. Open discussion and scrutiny are the first steps in addressing the public concerns about Investment Migration and improving standards across the board to ensure the risks of abuse are mitigated. However, the IMC opposes the TAX3 Committee’s call for the Investment Migration sector to be phased out since these programmes are responsible for vital investments in EU Member States. The IMC calls on MEPs to table and support a plenary amendment (refer to IMC Proposed Amendments to TAX3 Committee Report.pdf) deleting direct references to banning or phasing out citizenship-by- investment and residency-by-investment programmes, essentially pioneering categories of immigration and instead supporting the implementation of improved standards and possible regulation of the sector. Investment Migration Council, 16 rue Maunoir, 1211 Geneva, Switzerland 1 investmentmigration.org European Commission Joint Transparency Register Secretariat ID: 337639131420-09 Investment Migration is a €20 billion industry responsible for significant investment, job creation and societal development Investment Migration accounts for billions of direct and indirect revenues in some smaller European states, as noted by the International Monetary Fund in its 2015 publication “A Passport of Convenience” as well as individual annual Country Reports.

The progress in the culture meanwhile promoted the progresses in other aspects of politics, economy and social life, etc. Keywords: Middle Ages, Christianity, Promote In the history of the European civilization, modern European civilization is undoubtedly one of the most magnificent stages. If we want to uncover the veil of modern culture, it might be well to compare the modern European culture and the medieval European culture. And we will easily find that they are essentially the collision of rational cognition and irrational cognition. 1. The medieval culture with irrational cognition "Irrationalism" means that the medieval Europe was controlled by the backward and unplanned cultural tradition, resulting in unclear boundaries between man and god, reality and otherworldliness. Examining the medieval culture, we may find that it emphasized too much the religious orison, heroism, romanticism and scholastic philosophy. All these show that the medieval European culture is lack of rational spirit. 1.1 Religion was indispensable to human life and Christianity was undoubtedly in a dominant place in the Middle Ages. The religion of Christianity has two sources. One is that the ancient Greek philosophical heritage, especially the new Platonism and Stoicism, is its ideological root.
