This year JA Malta Company Programme’s MarketPlace event is going to be held on the 18th of March.
The JA MarketPlace is a unique opportunity for the students taking part in the JA Malta programme to sell their products online or at the event happening in Valletta’s Entrance (in front of the Parliament) at 9 AM to 4 PM.
