Spearheaded by Mellifera, in collaboration with the International Telecommunication Union (ITU), this initiative will empower startups and solopreneurs to create AI-driven solutions that tackle some of the world’s most pressing challenges, from climate change to healthcare and education.
With Malta hosting this global program, the country will strengthen its position as a rising hub for artificial intelligence, aligning with its 2030 AI strategy and connecting local innovation with a global platform.
