| Abstract: | At the beginning of April 2020, over 1 million active COVID-19 cases with over 59,000 deaths were reported. By early June 2020, cases soared to over 7 million with over 400,000 deaths affecting over 200 countries. Different trends were observed in different regions, with the situation stabilising in some, while still peaking in others. Due to the observed socio-economic impact, the European Commission (EC) adopted the Temporary Framework for State Aid Measures to Support the Economy in the Current COVID-19 Outbreak which enables Member States to administer State Aid funds. Through this framework the Maltese Ministry for Finance and Financial Services and the Ministry for the Economy, Investment and Small Businesses, took the opportunity to launch a national COVID-19 Research and Development (R&D) Fund.
