The Company's Innovation and Technology Department has seen the promotion of two members of its management team.

Within the same department, Jeffrey Cassar has stepped into the role of ICT Management Systems Lead. Mr Cassar's dedication and expertise have already played a key role in the establishment of the department's Governance, Risk and Compliance arm and the achievement of three ISO certifications, milestones that have strengthened the Company's cybersecurity, quality and service standards.

"Whilst congratulating my colleagues on their promotions, I would also like to thank them for accepting to take on the added responsibilities that come with these titles. I am confident that each will continue to contribute positively to the Company at a time when many ambitious projects are underway and the aviation regulatory landscape continues to change," said Malta International Airport CEO, Alan Borg.

The company announced a five-year investment programme totalling €250 million in 2023, aimed at enhancing the airport's infrastructure and ensuring that Malta International Airport can seamlessly handle increasing volumes of passengers, whilst reaching its environmental targets and continuing to develop the airport campus.

Apart from these notable investments into the airport's infrastructure, Malta International Airport also invests into the Maltese Islands' cultural heritage and environment through the Malta Airport Foundation which will be celebrating its 10th year anniversary this year.
