The Actavis Marketing and Sales Office held its annual regional team building in July which was spread over two days. Apart from the Malta marketing and sales team, the Cypriot and Tunisian teams also participated.

Employees gathered at the new Marketing and Sales Offices in Tarxien. Africa Regional Director, Daniel Vella Friggieri, made his opening speech followed by market overviews. The new company Tagline ‘Think smart medicine’ and new company values were also presented. The afternoon session followed with workshops on cardiology and women’s health.

The second day consisted of team building activities at Inspire in Marsascala. Choosing this venue contributed in helping Inspire, an NGO, to continue providing educational, therapeutic, social and recreational aid to people with special needs. Such an activity is in line with Actavis’ ethical and compliance policies and enhances the company’s commitment towards the community. The event came to an end with the awards for last year’s best-practiced company values followed by a lavish barbecue in a Bedouin setting. Trophies were also presented to the winning team.

The Marketing and Sales division in Malta is responsible for the Africa Region consisting of North, Central, West and South Africa, Cyprus, Israel and Malta.
