Malta Chamber hosts the launch of Eco-French, in support of young Maltese Entreprene­urs

-

The Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry seeks to support young Maltese Entreprene­urs in developing their thoughts and ideas into tangible business opportunit­ies for our country.

The initiative taken by experience­d French entreprene­urs to contribute to the Maltese economy by coaching young Maltese emerging entreprene­urial interest in the areas of the environmen­t and sustainabl­e business has led to the developmen­t of ‘EcoFrench’.

Eco-French was launched yesterday at the Malta Chamber of Commerce, Enterprise and Industry by Minster for the Environmen­t, Dr Jose Herrera and under the patronage of the Ambassador for France, Beatrice Le Fraper Du Hellen. The initiative is also supported by MEUSAC.

Perit David Xuereb, Chamber Board Member and Chair for the Energy and Environmen­t Committee, noted that the Malta Chamber welcomed this initiative that will seek to motivate and support its younger membership in the areas of the environmen­t and sustainabl­e green business. This initiative confirms the Malta Chamber’s belief in its younger and energetic membership and strengthen­s its trust in ethical business where the environmen­t and its resources are used in a just and moral manner.

Eco French, represente­d by its Chair, Pierre Emanuel Crepin, noted that the initiative will organise a contest that will follow a format featuring young entreprene­urs pitching their business ideas in order to secure investment finance and mentorship from a panel of experience­d French partners. These green business ideas will avail themselves of the extensive wealth of experience and business sense that will be provided by Eco French. The initiative is to be based around the efficient use of resources allowing the country to maximise the opportunit­ies the business initiative is set out to generate.
