Young Maltese entrepreneurs are making their mark! Team Matter, a JA Malta student company from Verdala International School, represented Malta at the International Student Company Festival in Latvia. As a result, they stood out and made a strong impression!
After winning the JA Malta Marketplace in Valletta on March 15th, they secured a spot among Europe’s best young business minds. Consequently, they competed with student-led companies, showcased their idea, met industry leaders, and gained real business experience.
Most importantly, their hard work paid off! They won Best Sales Team and were also nominated for Best Video Advert and Best Company. This proves their talent, dedication, and passion for business.
Thanks to the support of Hili Ventures, the team traveled to Latvia for this amazing opportunity. During the event, from March 31st to April 2nd, they pitched their business, attended workshops, and met young entrepreneurs from around the world.
Moreover, the International Student Company Festival promotes creativity, teamwork, and leadership. It gathers Europe’s brightest young minds and highlights how hands-on experience helps future success. Events like this provide students with real-world challenges, pushing them to think outside the box and develop problem-solving skills essential for business.
JA Malta continues to support students through its Company Programme, helping them turn ideas into real businesses. Each year, dozens of young entrepreneurs from Malta take part in this initiative, gaining hands-on experience in leadership, finance, and marketing. The programme encourages innovation and equips students with the tools needed for future careers.
In conclusion, JA Malta congratulates Team Matter on their win! They are excited to see them—and the other 47 teams in the JA Malta Company Programme—continue to grow. Their journey is proof that young entrepreneurs can make a difference when given the right platform and mentorship.
