C-Level Golf Tournament
SiGMA kicks off the summit experience with an exclusive C-Level Golf Tournament at the prestigious Royal Malta Golf Club. This invitation-only event, held on 11 November, offers a unique opportunity for top executives to network, relax, and compete in a friendly environment.
The shared experience of playing golf creates a common ground for executives to bond over. The laid-back atmosphere of a golf course allows for more casual and open conversations. The strategic thinking and problem-solving skills required in golf can translate to effective business practices. Moreover, the competitive nature of golf can spark healthy rivalries and encourage participants to strive for excellence.
This sporting activity allows executives to build lasting relationships, exchange ideas, and explore potential collaborations in a unique and enjoyable setting.

The clubhouse restaurant and bar will be open throughout the event, providing a lively atmosphere for socialising and relaxation. Delegates can enjoy delicious food and drinks while mingling with colleagues and potential partners.
