Business Empowerment

The Malta Chamber in collaboration with The Malta Business Registry (MBR) will be hosting a half-day seminar titled ‘Business Empowerment’ as part of SME Week. This event will provide an opportunity to discuss concerns and ideas for improving the MBR’s current services and to gain insight into the newly introduced automated digital services.

The seminar will also explore forthcoming European Directives that will affect the industry as a whole and how the organisation is preparing for these shifts. In addition, it will reflect on recent amendments to the Companies Act and upcoming ones, aiming to foster an entrepreneurial mindset and promote the adoption of digitalisation. This in view of the 60th anniversary since Malta enacted the first legislation.
