Press Release: Positive outcome for Black Friday 2024
29 November 2024
Feedback reported to the Malta Chamber of SMEs on Black Friday results indicates mixed outcomes....
We have this week hosted our first meeting on Erasmus for Entrepreneurs in collaboration with Koperativi Malta. The meeting proved highly interesting for the members who attended and after a significant request from those who did not make it, another one will be organised.
The programme can be of benefit to entrepreneurs who are already established and are interested in hosting another entrepreneur in their field, an established enterprise wanting to broaden its line of business by gaining first hand experience in a foreign company in its same line, and a new entrepreneur seeking experience by being hosted in an enterprise in his line of interest.
