The Malta Airport Foundation has marked its 10-year anniversary since its establishment.

Over the past decade, the foundation has forged strategic partnerships with local entities and NGOs and invested over €2 million in an extensive portfolio of projects, aimed at preserving and promoting Malta’s heritage.

This includes the revival of historical sites such as Torri Xutu, Villa Hay, the Combined Operations Room and Operation Husky Museum and the conservation of sacred art within the churches of St Catherine of Alexandria in Żurrieq and Ta’ Gieżu in Valletta.

It also spearheaded a series of marine projects aimed at bringing the historical and natural treasures hidden within Malta’s seas to the surface.

During the celebratory event, attended by key stakeholders and partners like Tourism Minister Clayton Bartolo, Malta International Airport (MIA) CEO Alan Borg expressed pride in the foundation’s achievements.

“As the Malta Airport Foundation’s founder and sole financial donor, MIA is contributing to the protection and promotion of the very heritage that makes Malta such a sought-after destination,” he added.

Chairman of the Foundation Josef Formosa Gauci noted that the first 10 years “have been nothing short of extraordinary,” while emphasising that it will remain committed to safeguarding Malta’s unique past.
