Interview with Oliver Scicluna, Director, CHIC
Med-Aesthetic Clinics – Winner of Malta’s Best
Healthcare Entrepreneur of the Year and also
Best Male Entrepreneur of the Year Award
during Malta’s Best Entrepreneur of the Year
Awards 2018
MBR: What do you think you have contributed
to the Med-Aesthetic Services and Primary
Medical Care industry?
OS: CHIC has been able to offer med-aesthetic
treatments using the most innovative
equipment and techniques available on the
market worldwide, by internationally-trained
medical doctors, within a state-of-the-art
medical centre, and at great value for money.
Thus, not only were we able to innovate, but
we were also able to give access to the finest
treatments at very competitive rates.
Moreover, we worked hard to educate the
public further on the exceptional efficacy and
safety profiles of rejuvenation treatments, when
carried out by properly trained and experienced
professionals. Within primary care we offer
prompt medical care and assistance to patients
within the foreign and local community of the
MIA, SkyParks and surrounding villages.
MBR: What’s your three top success tips for
young entrepreneurs?
OS: 1. Learn: Be it a business degree, your past
work experiences, speaking to the elderly - try
to absorb as much information as possible. The
more data housed in your brain, the healthier
your decisions will be.
2. Have a clear strategy: Start by building
a detailed business plan. This will help you
communicate your strategy with any concerned
parties as well as stay focused on what is
required to achieve your goals.
3. Success is only measured in happiness:
Performance and success are not the same
thing. Whatever you do, see that it never leads
to a lesser amount of happiness. Most of the
time the journey to better performance will be
the most successful part of your life.
MBR: Can you tell us about your feelings when
your name was read out as the winner of
Malta’s Best Healthcare Entrepreneur of the
Year and also Best Male Entrepreneur of the
Year Award during Malta’s Best Entrepreneur
of the Year Awards 2018?
OS: Overwhelmed, proud and honoured. I felt
particularly proud of my team as both awards
are a certification of our collective efforts.
Healthcare has been my passion from the very
beginning of my career, and to top that, to be
recognized as Malta’s Best Male Entrepreneur
of the Year is surely overpowering.
MBR: How significant are such awards, what is
your feedback on the event and what’s next?
OS: Whilst the biggest certification normally
comes from our patients and clients who
consistently maintain their trust in our work,
receiving a tangible award further confirms
achievements and helps you celebrate a
milestone in your life.
The MBEOTYA event in itself presents an aura of
prestige and refinement, bringing together the
top entrepreneurs in the country, to celebrate
achievements made, in the presence of their
team members, loved ones, and distinguished
guests. It’s a wonderful experience.
MBR: As a die-hard entrepreneur at heart,
how do you help people define what true
entrepreneurship is and what it takes to be a
leader, and helps people dispel the myths of
businesses?
OS: Business is the activity of trading and
honest business is the process by which each
party benefits from such activity.
Customers, employees and all stakeholders
are very sensitive to honest business and
are automatically attracted to it. Keep your
intentions pure and never play with their trust.
It will take suspicion, not proof, to lose it. MBR
