The Royal Malta Golf Club (RMGC) was proud to attend and actively contribute to the Deloitte Annual Forum 2026, further strengthening its strategic partnership with Deloitte, the Club’s main sponsor.
The annual forum brought together Malta’s leading business minds, innovators and decision-makers to address the critical questions shaping the country’s future. As Deloitte continues to play a pivotal role in Malta’s business ecosystem, RMGC’s presence underscored the natural synergy between high-performance sport, leadership and commercial excellence.
A Partnership Built on Performance and Vision
As RMGC’s main sponsor, Deloitte shares the Club’s commitment to excellence, innovation and long-term strategic thinking. The themes explored during the forum closely reflected the values that underpin both organisations.
In the session on Innovation in Action, Pierre Mallia and Jason Gordon examined how organisations can harness technology and McLaren’s high-performance principles to drive operational excellence and transformation. The parallels with golf were clear: success depends on precision, data-driven insight, continuous improvement and a disciplined mindset.
From Legacy to Vision, featuring Michael Farrugia and moderated by Rachel Zarb Cousin, explored how family businesses evolve while safeguarding their heritage. As one of Malta’s most historic sporting institutions, RMGC understands the importance of honouring tradition while embracing modernisation—an approach that aligns with Deloitte’s forward-looking advisory leadership.
Brendan Hall’s powerful reflections in From the Sea to the C-Suite reinforced the leadership qualities required in both sport and business: resilience, clarity under pressure and teamwork. The session echoed the core values that define both competitive golf and successful organisations.
The forum concluded with key insights from Conrad Cassar Torregiani, who emphasised collaboration, innovation and bold thinking as essential to Malta’s continued growth—principles that underpin the ongoing partnership between Deloitte and RMGC.
Bringing RMGC to the Business Community
As part of the event, RMGC hosted an interactive workshop incorporating technology to give business leaders a taste of life at the Club. The session demonstrated how golf today blends tradition with innovation, using modern tools such as performance analytics and digital engagement platforms to elevate both the sporting and commercial experience.
Participants gained insight into how RMGC operates not only as a premier sporting venue, but also as a strategic business platform. From corporate events and sponsorship activations to executive networking and relationship-building, the Club continues to provide an environment where meaningful connections are formed.
Golf and Business: A Natural Fit
RMGC’s involvement at the Deloitte Annual Forum 2026 highlighted how golf serves as a powerful conduit for business development. The course becomes more than a sporting arena—it is a setting for strategic dialogue, trust-building and long-term partnerships.
The Royal Malta Golf Club extends its sincere thanks to Deloitte for its continued support and leadership as main sponsor, and to all speakers, panellists and attendees who contributed to the important conversations shaping Malta’s future.
Together, RMGC and Deloitte remain committed to driving excellence—on the course and across Malta’s business landscape.
