Malta Visit by German Business Delegation

Malta as a tourism and investment location was introduced to the Executive Board of the Chamber of Commerce in Germany (region Halle-Dessau) during a visit to the island between the 12th and 16th of May.

Organised by Malta Enterprise in conjunction with the Embassy of Malta in Berlin and the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the visit of the delegation was led by Mr Detlef Bischoff, Malta’s Honorary Consul in the States of Saxony-Anhalt and neighbouring Saxony, and Vice-President of the Executive Board.

Members of the Halle-Dessau Chamber of Commerce held meetings with representatives of Malta Enterprise, the Malta Chamber of Commerce as well as the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Foreign Affairs, the Hon. Tonio Borg. Playmobil Malta and the Malta Freeport were also included in their programme in order to provide testimonials of successful business endeavours as well as the potential Malta holds for German investors as a hub for investment in the Mediterranean.

During such visits Vision 2015 conceived by the Government of Malta was outlined with particular emphasis on the wish for further development of renewable energy sources for Malta, in which Germany could become a strong partner due to its leadership in the field.
