Why did you become an entrepreneur? My vision to offer better IT services in Malta, 22 years ago, inspired me to become an entrepreneur. My father also inspired me to start my own enterprise since he was a self-employed person in a totally different sector, i.e. tile-laying.
How have you come to choose your line of business?
I was always an IT Savvy person, and I studied computer technology back in 1988. I started working as an IT Administrator with a company when IT was literally at it's infancy. The service provided by IT companies at that time left much to be desired, focusing only on box shifting. My ambition was to offer the best possible service in a newly developing industry.
Where did you go on your last holiday?
My last holiday was in Cyprus, Agia Napa, with my wife and my youngest kids. I enjoyed the food, the location and the people. I was impressed with how the village of Famagusta has been left after the invasion.
What is your earliest memory?
Going out with my family every weekend to different places in Malta, like Ghar Lapsi and Ghar Dalam.
If you could chose to be someone famous who would you be and why?
Bill Gates because I always admired how he manages to use the knowledge he gathers from people and turns it into a project or system that eventually makes him more money. Besides that, after he made himself one of the richest people on earth, he eventually dedicated his time to improve other people's lives, mostly those people that are more in need in the world.
