Tech.mt CEO Wayne Grixti on Monday reaffirmed the organisation’s focus on fostering growth in local technology while also attracting foreign investment.

He said this following the announcement that Tech.mt has partnered with UAE-based Gulf Xellence, Safeer Corporate Services Provider and Business gate to organise an annual global technology conference in Malta. This collaborative agreement will “continue to consolidate” Tech.mt’s mission to put Malta “on the forefront of the tech industry on both a European and global level”, allowing for increased opportunities and exposure to local technology companies. It will also attract international businesses to “start up, operate, and trial” their new technologies locally.

Through such agreements, the organisation “aims to fulfil its mission” and offer the local tech community a platform to “promote their work and celebrate their successes”. Additionally, businesses are also able to explore opportunities to “scale up, future-proof their business, and explore new niches for potential business investment”.
