Streamcast abandoned the data centre built for it with taxpayer money in the old power station tunnels, again without paying a cent.Įnemalta had originally defended the Streamcast deal when The Shift exposed problems with the project that has now racked up debts that runs close to €1 million. Melita’s court application was soon followed by another filed by utility company Enemalta for around €500,000 in rent arrears, electricity bills and other costs.Įven Enemalta is claiming payments for up until the day when the project was announced. Yet, in Malta, they were given everything they requested, sold out and have now left what looks like a trail of debt. The company even had the backing of the Maltese government with former Minister Konrad Mizzi taking a trip to Mumbai, India where he attended a press conference by Streamcast.īut The Shift investigation showed Streamcast was a company that did not have a data centre, infrastructure, funds, a track record or even a proper website. The Shift has revealed that Streamcast came out of nowhere in 2018 and was sold to the public as a “major international company’ that would invest €75 million in the launch of an international data centre in Malta.

On 26 February 2020 the Civil Court condemned Streamcast to pay Melita just under €300,000 for internet connection costs dating back to its launch in 2018.
