One in every eight business participants who took part in B2B events organised by the Malta Consortium within the Enterprise Europe Network (EEN) managed to grow their business internationally over the last three years.

The Consortium was also well positioned to provide 300 advisory services to Malta based entrepreneurs and replied to more than 500 general enquiries. The major part of the advisory services consisted of individual client support towards tapping EU funding, innovation business practices and access to international procurement.

Reacting to the results, a spokesperson for the Malta Consortium said: “We are satisfied with the outcome of our work which generated a very positive reputation for the Network locally. We constantly push ourselves to turn activity results into outcomes which generate a positive impact on clients' businesses because ultimately that is the purpose of our work”.

The Malta consortium within the Network is composed of Malta Enterprise; The Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry; Malta Business Bureau (MBB) and Malta Council for Science and Technology (MCST).
