MALTA is focusing on small
and medium higher val-
ue-added outfits in its efforts
to attract foreign direct in-
vestment (FDI), Malta Ene-
terprise CEO Kurt Farrugia
told BusinessToday.
Farrugia said that com-
panies in the fields of AI,
Information and Commu-
nications Technology, med-
ical technology, life sciences
and high-precision egineer-
ing were a perfect fit for
Malta.
"It no longer makes sense
to bring to Malta companies
that would need a thousand
or more employess, since
it would be hard to find so
many employees in today's
market," he said.
"On the other hand, small-
er high-tech companies see
a lot of value in Malta."
