Malta Awards 19 Students With Blockchain Scholarships
The Maltese government has awarded 19 students with blockchain scholarships totaling 160,000 Euro ($179, 0000).
The scholarships were granted by Silvio Schembri, Parliamentary Secretary for Financial Services, Digital Economy and Innovation.
The grands used the $351,000 scholarship fund that was set up by Malta Digital Innovation Authority (MITA) and the University of Malta last year.
In addition to this all awardees will further apply for Master’s degree in blockchain and distributed ledger technology (DLT) with some of them specializing in blockchain studies relating to law, finance, business and ICT.
Malta’s blockchain scholarship comes at a time when many governments in the world are forming similar initiatives in order to augment blockchain manpower or train existing personnel about the nascent industry.
