Evidence snapshot for Malta
Malta has deployed AI-powered tax enforcement tools that collected €650 million in additional tax revenue in 2024, demonstrating significant fiscal capacity, while simultaneously attracting tech talent through integrated startup programmes that have funded 66 projects with €30 million and supported over 300 tech startups offering average wages of €45,000—double the national average. The country has also implemented digital residence pathways for remote workers, with the Nomad Residence Permit growing to 1,031 applications in 2024 alone. Beyond economic initiatives, Malta operates multi-stakeholder programmes addressing digital safety and gender equality, though these show descriptive rather than quantified outcomes.
