Abstract: Small and the medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) are socially and economically very important since they represent 99% of all enterprises in the EU and 96.2% of all enterprises in Slovenia. In the paper, the comparison of the e-business in Slovenian and in the EU countries is presented. Not only infrastructure is needed to extend e-business among SMEs what could be the case among Slovenian SMEs. Even if the broadband access to the Internet in Slovenia is not a problem anymore, B2B e-business is not spread among Slovenian SMEs as it is in EU countries. On the other hand, B2G and C2G services are more spread among Slovenian enterprises and even among individuals than among the subjects in the EU countries.
