Exploring Practical Financing Solutions for Start-ups

Malta Venture Capital, in collaboration with PEVCA, hosted a dedicated session on SAFE Notes at the Malta Financial Services Authority (MFSA), bringing together members of Malta’s start-up and investment community for a practical and informative discussion.

The session focused on the growing use of SAFE (Simple Agreement for Future Equity) notes as a financing instrument for early-stage companies. Designed to provide both founders and investors with practical insights, the event explored how SAFE notes can be used effectively within real investment scenarios. Participants benefited from perspectives across both the commercial and legal dimensions of SAFE agreements. Representatives from LTV Capital shared their experience from the investor side, discussing how SAFE notes can support start-up growth while maintaining flexibility. Legal experts from Camilleri Preziosi Advocates complemented this with guidance on the legal considerations and structuring of such agreements.

The event highlighted the importance of accessible, founder-friendly financing tools and encouraged meaningful dialogue between entrepreneurs, investors, and advisors within Malta’s evolving innovation ecosystem.
