I commend all those who are taking the initiative to get involved and grow our potential as a country," reiterated the parliamentary secretary.
Anthea Fabri, Director of the Framework Programme Unit at Xjenza Malta, stressed the essential role of Horizon Europe in Malta's Research and Innovation ecosystem.
