Paolo24: Hi Rusty.
How do you see the economic climate in Malta, my design business is connected with the interior design and architectural market.
I have been in contact with one of Malta's leading interior design companies and the are very interested in the material.
Hope you are enjoying that famous Mediterranean weather.
I think there is lots of competition, but if you are good at what you do you'll find customers.
I was in the dentist a few months ago. I read a local magazine. It was all about architecture - some of the stuff was as good as anything on this planet.
Historically the Maltese were prepared to pay more for 'expert' foreign advice and expertise. Nowadays they have plenty of home-grown talent that is more confident of their abilities than previous generations.
However, if you are good at what you do and can find your own niche and you work hard and you don't get 'turned over' in some business deal - you have no reason not to be a success!
