On Thursday 3rd March, Startup Malta organized a Network Thursday event at "Il-Forn" where
participants of the Startup Malta Business competition were introduced to their
assigned mentors. Mentors and participants got to know each other over a glass
of wine and some finger-food.
Present at the event were vice-president of the Mentoring Society Mr Joseph
Montebello and Dr Antoine Barbara. Some teams got right to business and started
explaining their business concept to their mentor while others took the
opportunity to learn about each others' ideas and experiences.
Startup Malta believes that behind every successful person there is one
elementary truth; somewhere, somehow, someone cared about their growth and
development. This person was their mentor.
Primarily a team-building and social activity, Network Thursdays also provides
an excellent platform on which students and young people can network, discuss
ideas, and familiarise themselves with people from the business community whilst
giving the latter direct access to talented young individuals.. all over a glass
of wine!
Startup Malta will be organizing a number of Network Thursdays events in the
coming months. The maltese mentoring society can be reached at
