Abstract
This paper describes the research and analysis realised in relation to the creation of enterprise networks, based on the networked enterprise model, in European SMEs. It focuses on the barriers to inter-firm collaboration and on the skills and competencies needed by SMEs managers and employees in order to collaborate successfully with other SMEs and organisations. It describes the preliminary results of the Managing Enterprise Networks (MENS) project funded by the European Commission under the Leonardo Da Vinci initiative.
