In this latest series, first carried on MaltaCEOs 2024 – the annual publication featuring 50 of Malta’s most influential CEOs in wide ranging interviews and much more – we discover what C-suite heavyweights have to say about making and maintaining connections that count.
Working with a host of local and international clients on economic and financial services regulation, JP Fabri is a Partner at Seed – a research-driven advisory firm known for its holistic approach to strategic, business and policy advisory.
“Leading expert on the science of networks, Albert László Barabási, defines success as ‘a collective phenomenon based on the thoughts and praise of those around you’. This, to me, highlights the power of networking. Given that networks are embedded in nature, networking as an activity is central not only to business and professional life, but to our identity as humans.
“Staying informed and connected keeps you ahead of the curve in your area of focus as you understand trends, predictions and drivers of change.”
JP Fabri, Economist and Partner at Seed
“Networking has changed significantly post-COVID-19 and, in a world where we are overwhelmed with myriad online and offline networking opportunities, building and maintaining networks is critical. Staying informed and connected keeps you ahead of the curve in your area of focus as you understand trends, predictions and drivers of change. In turn, being prepared to leverage networking opportunities gives you a chance to add value to ongoing discussions.”
