This study shows the results of detailed research on Western European business demographics across multiple sources such as national statistic offices, Eurostat, OECD, and Dun & Bradstreet.

The analysis provides an outlook for the SMB market structure and size across 16 Western European countries and 21 sub-vertical markets. The main points analyzed include SMBs' number of enterprises and performance measured by employment.

''In comparison with other regions, the business demography of Western Europe shows the prevalence of the small firm, with the average Western European company employing only 12 people. Most SMBs are micro-enterprises serving local markets and for the most part struggling to stay in business in a unified and fiercely competitive European environment,'' said Laura Converso, senior research analyst with IDC's European Small and Medium Business Service.
