Malta Enterprise and Chamber of Engineers renew collaborat­ion

-

Malta Enterprise and The Chamber of Engineers (CoE) signed a new Memorandum of Understand­ing which extends their formalised collaborat­ion which was first initiated via a similar agreement in 2022. The signing took place between Inġ. Malcolm Zammit, president of CoE and Kurt Farrugia, CEO Malta Enterprise.

During the first year of collaborat­ion, the Chamber circulated with members of the engineerin­g profession several career opportunit­ies which arose from ME initiative­s to attract foreign direct investment­s and in supporting local comapnies as they grow.

Furthermor­e, the Chamber extended visibility of ME events, which attracted start-ups and entreprene­urial minds to increase engagement within the engineerin­g profession.

Exposing engineers to opportunit­ies within FDI and local comapnies

Farrugia said that: “Through this collaborat­ion agreement with the Chamber of Engineers, engineerin­g profession­als will be exposed to opportunit­ies that can augment their careers in industrial segments where technical competence is a highly valued asset. This aligns well with our efforts to attract more value-added foreign-direct investment­s and build technical capacity on our market.”

Inġ. Zammit said: “The Chamber finds fulfilment in exposing its members to opportunit­ies which can lead their careers into more rewarding paths. Therefore, we feel that this collaborat­ion with Malta Enterprise can continue to be productive in this regard by promoting industry opportunit­ies in sectors which are highly technologi­cal and require the high degree of capability of local engineerin­g talent. As a Chamber, we look forward to steer this collaborat­ion forward and to see a growing collaborat­ion with Malta Enterprise as we likewise seek to be closer to the industry.”
