Whether it is the supply chain legislation or laws on cyber security: During the “Markus Lanz” show that was broadcast on 7 February 2024 and, once again, on the “heute journal” news programme on 15 May 2024, Martina Nighswonger, the managing director of GECHEM, explained how bureaucratic growth was affecting the German “Mittelstand” i.e. the small and medium-sized enterprises in Germany (SMEs).
