This is the second part of a six-part series exploring the state of play when it comes to AI adoption in Malta, in the view of local experts in the field. This second iteration explores the views of Head of Legal at BDO Malta Jackie Mallia.
“Malta is advancing AI adoption through its ‘Strategy and Vision for Artificial Intelligence in Malta 2030’, focusing on investment, public sector innovation and private sector engagement.
“Ranked 10th in the Global AI Index in 2020, the strategy supports SMEs with financial incentives, awareness campaigns and an AI readiness index. “Successful AI applications locally include traffic management systems that optimise urban mobility.
“A notable project led by Malta’s Superintendence of Cultural Heritage used AI to analyse foot traffic flow at Spazju Kreattiv, resulting in an 11 per cent increase in visitors following resource changes driven by AIgenerated insights.
“Going forward, AI is set to enhance compliance and cybersecurity. Businesses should embrace this and leverage Government incentives and funding to offset costs and accelerate implementation.”
