The event programme examined Malta beyond the residence application itself. Discussions covered the practical aspects which gave prospective applicants a broader basis on which to assess Malta as a place to live, invest, or establish a long-term European presence:
- structure and requirements of the Malta Permanent Residence Programme;
- financial commitments involved in an application;
- eligibility and supporting documentation;
- family members who may be included in an application;
- Malta's business environment and tax framework;
- property and investment considerations;
- lifestyle, culture, and relocation to Malta.
Malta as a stable European jurisdiction was discovered during the video address by Dr Frederick Ellul, Immigrant Invest's partner in Malta. He discussed the country's economic foundations, political stability, and an economy shaped by services, specialised industries, innovation, and human capital, rather than natural resources.
Real estate was another important part of the discussion. Representatives of Belair Property, Immigrant Invest’s real estate partner in Malta, provided insight into Malta's property market, including current trends and investment considerations for international buyers.
The official programme concluded with a closed Q&A, allowing prospective applicants to raise more detailed questions about documentation, programme requirements, and financial commitments. Participants showed particular interest in how Malta could work for whole families rather than individual applicants.
