Prime Minister Robert Abela recently highlighted the significant contribution of the iGaming industry to Malta’s economy, emphasizing its role as a pillar of the country’s economic growth . In a notable example, the Sigma Europe conference alone injected €100 million into the economy in just three days. This impressive figure represents approximately 3.3% of Malta’s national tourism revenue.
Building on this success, Prime Minister Abela stressed the need for Malta to invest in a larger conference centre that can attract high-quality tourism. This vision is part of the government’s economic strategy to further establish Malta as a hub for international conferences and events. By upgrading its conference infrastructure, Malta aims to compete more effectively with other popular destinations and capitalize on the growing demand for premium tourism experiences.
