Doing Business in Malta – Hayes Culleton enters new markets

Following a successful feasibility trip in January (organised by the Enterprise Europe Network), Susan Hayes of Hayes Culleton Ltd travelled back to Malta during the month of May. The company was contracted by the Bank of Valletta as well as the Malta Institute of Accountantsto deliver training to Wealth Managers and all key staff in specialised financial training.

Given that Hayes Culleton is based in one of the funds capitals of Europe, the true insight into this industry was widely recognised and highly valued. In addition, Susan spoke to an international audience about the commercialisation opportunities in training over the internet. She delivered “eLearning in entrepreneurship” at an “Unlocking the Potential” networking conference hosted by Malta Enterprise. Finally, she addressed a high level group on thesubject of “The Rise & Fall of the Irish Celtic Tiger – what can Malta learn from Ireland’s lessons?” As a professional with the niche of“Economics Meets the Stock Market”, Susan examined, analysed and presented the facts from each country and compared them.
Susan has already been invited back in November to speak to an audience of Finance Malta
and the company is persevering towards a permanent presence in the Mediterranean country!
