It was a great pleasure to once again bring together Malta’s innovation ecosystem stakeholders for our Annual Summer Event.

The event gave us the opportunity to share the main highlights of the last 12 months, the key items being
– our National Innovation Ecosystem document that we started sharing with the stakeholders
– the Enterprise Innovation conference we did in collaboration with Malta Enterprise, EEN Malta and Malta Innovation Hub.
– a set of meetings with key stakeholders discussing Malta’s innovation ecosystem.

“Engineers are the architects of tomorrow, crafting solutions today with the bricks of engineering and the cement of innovation.”

Malta Innovation Forum represented by Johan Zammit and Joseph Micallef had a cordial meeting with the Chamber of Engineers where a number of interesting ideas and potential avenues of collaboration were discussed.

The event was aimed at bringing together both providers of digitalisation and industry 4.0 as well as those seeking such solutions. We received a lot of good feedback about the case studies that were exhibited.

It was great collaborating with Malta Enterprise & Enterprise Europe Network – Malta on this event.

A big thank you goes to our main sponsor RSM MT, and to all exhibitors and attendees.

It was of great pleasure to have the opportunity to share this milestone with like-minded professionals from all walks of life, representatives of industry, government and other NGOs.

How can we empower our employees to generate more ideas? How can we enable them to express their full entrepreneurial spirit? How do we select the best ideas? How do we keep these ideas alive and take them to market?

The answers to these questions and more will be discussed together with our speakers and panelists.
