Agenda
Join us for the launch of the 10th Edition of EY’s Malta attractiveness survey
50 Years of FDI
Looking forward
Featuring Malta's top decision makers in the public and private sectors and high-profile international speakers, this year's
event will focus on 50 years of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Malta, how the FDI scenario has changed over the years and
future prospects.
For over a decade the annual EY surveys have been widely recognised by business leaders, the media and major public
stakeholders as a key source of insight and information on FDI in Malta. Our distinguished speaker line-up will be sharing their
visions and experiences, focusing on how Malta can increase its attractiveness for FDI on both a national and sectorial level.
Interactive, sector-focused breakout sessions will delve deep into what is shaping the future of Malta's major industry. Panel
discussions will feature a wide range of stakeholders to capture a spectrum of viewpoints. The event is also designed to
enhance B2B networking and for participants to interact with policy makers.
Early booking is strongly recommended.
