Magic Spectrum, which also includes Cisco, Inwit, Irdeos and Unipol Tech among its partners, will seek to accelerate the development of businesses using 5G or IoT to develop B2B and B2C products in the following areas: smart home & building, smart mobility, smart factory, retail & logistics, Agrifood, health and wellness. Up to 15 start-ups will be selected to enter the programme from this first call for applications.

Harald Roesch, Chief Executive at Melita Limited, said, “Melita’s participation in Magic Spectrum, which aims to become Europe’s leading accelerator of 5G and IoT businesses, highlights our commitment to develop the best technologies and connectivity not just in Malta but across Europe. Through melita.io, our Internet of Things connectivity offering, we have already established a significant presence in Italy and Germany. Coupled with the fact that we also have nationwide 5G, NB-IoT and LoRaWan networks in Malta, Melita’s reputation as an enabler of new solutions continues to grow.”
