As part of the European SME Week 2024, between 25 and 29 November, the Croatian Standards Institute (HZN) invites all entrepreneurs to its Doors Open Days and grants discounts on the purchase of standards.
During this week, all visitors to HZN’s Standards Library, as well as all those who order Croatian standards at prodaja@hzn.hr, will receive a 20% discount. The discount is applied to all Croatian standards and can be combined with the existing discounts listed in Article III of HZN’s Price List of Standards and Services.
The aim of this initiative is to bring standards closer to SMEs and draw their attention to the importance of standardization for competitiveness and sustainable growth in the European market.
The flagship event and major highlight of the European SME Week 2024, the SME Assembly, took place between 18-20 November 2024 in Budapest, Hungary. The Assembly, organized in collaboration with the Hungarian Presidency of the Council and the Enterprise Europe Network, will feature high-level panels and interviews, expert roundtables, interactive workshops, and numerous networking opportunities.

Entrepreneurs and standards – numerous benefits and easier access to foreign markets
Applying European standards helps entrepreneurs ensure the high quality and safety of their products, making them recognizable and accepted throughout the EU market. Standards also allow easier access to public procurement and enhance reputation in the industry. By applying standards, entrepreneurs reinforce their commitment to excellence and environmental responsibility, contributing to sustainable business and market success.
