Rewriting the Rules: Gege Gatt at the BLM Conference 2025
At this year’s Business Leaders Malta (BLM) Conference, themed “Ahead of the Game,” over 600 influential leaders gathered to explore the technologies shaping tomorrow—AI, quantum computing, and beyond. Taking centre stage was Gege Gatt, CEO of EBO, who delivered a powerful keynote that challenged conventional thinking on leadership and innovation.
Gege opened his session with a thought-provoking message:
“The old game was reacting to change. The new game? Rewriting the rules. And that’s exactly what AI empowers us to do.”
He explained that as computational power increases and costs decrease, AI is rapidly outperforming humans in language comprehension, image recognition, and decision-making. But it’s not just about performance—it’s about pace.
“AI is evolving faster than any technology in human history,” Gege noted. “And we’re only just scratching the surface.”
Key Themes Explored
Gege’s keynote focused on how AI is not just a tool for automation but a strategic enabler for modern leadership. He unpacked four central themes:
🔹 AI-Powered Leadership
Leadership today isn’t about knowing all the answers—it’s about asking the right questions and leveraging the best tools to find them. Gege emphasised how AI assists decision-makers in processing complex data, identifying patterns, and offering predictive insights that enhance strategic thinking.
🔹 Smarter Business Strategies
Companies still relying on outdated, intuition-based decision-making models are falling behind. AI enables data-driven strategy, giving organisations the agility to respond to market signals, customer behaviours, and emerging trends with precision and speed.
🔹 The Economic Impact of AI
AI isn’t just transforming businesses; it’s reshaping entire economies. From customer service to supply chain optimisation, automation is driving efficiency and freeing up human capital for more creative and value-driven roles. Gege also highlighted how sectors like healthcare, finance, and government are seeing measurable returns from AI implementation.
🔹 Staying Ahead of the Game
The keynote closed with a critical insight: the companies that embrace AI today will define the market tomorrow.Gege urged businesses to take bold steps now, integrating AI not as a one-off innovation project, but as a core part of their strategic DNA.
Whether you’re in tech, healthcare, finance, or retail, the message was clear: the winners of tomorrow are being shaped by the decisions we make today. Contact us today!
