Earlier this week, Malta was the 5th most represented country from a total of 30 whose startups engaged in international virtual business-to-business meetings during an event co-organised by The Malta Chamber in conjunction with Magdeburg Chamber of Commerce and Industry (Germany) as part of Enterprise Europe Network (EEN).
The event provided a digital platform for 6 Maltese start-up companies who met international counterparts during pre-set meetings, which brought together start-ups and established enterprises together to establish new business ventures, engage in international projects, discover new ideas and exchange knowledge and experience.
Reacting to the positive participation from Malta, the President of The Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry Perit David Xuereb said that the response for this event was very encouraging in view of business-representative body’s efforts to reach out to the start-ups cluster and help them navigate a successful path for their business.
“Our Chamber is very much aware that startups play an important role in our commercial fabric and we acknowledge their contribution. Many of them are currently facing short-term challenges and need support to address shortfalls in liquidity and funding, particularly during the current phase. There are others, however, who are approaching us to help them foster the ability to grasp new international business opportunities with focused support and in a timely manner” Perit Xuereb added.
