For the fourth year running, the sum of €100,000 will be
allocated to entrepreneurs and researchers through the University
of Malta's TAKEOFF Seed Fund Award (TOSFA) to help move their
innovative ideas and technologies closer to commercialisation.
The Ministry for the Economy, Investment and Small Business and
the University of Malta have launched the 2017 edition of TOSFA,
with the support of the University's Knowledge Transfer Office,
TAKEOFF Business Incubator, and Centre for Entrepreneurship and
Business Incubation (CEBI).
Entrepreneurs and start-ups working on ideas for innovative
products and services are encouraged to apply for up to
€20,000 in seed funds, intended to take them a step closer to
their first customer or investment and ultimately allowing
them to successfully do business in Malta. Researchers working on
innovations developed through University R&D may apply for
proof of concept funds to take their technology closer to
commercialisation. Award
