During this term, the Chamber oversaw the successful completion of the DRIVE STEM Project, together with a broader programme of growth and professional support. The Chamber welcomed several new Sponsors and Partners, strengthening its strategic partnerships and long‑term sustainability. It also introduced new member‑focused initiatives, including specialised AI training designed for engineers across different disciplines, and enhanced membership benefits such as tailored professional indemnity insurance for engineering professionals. These developments formed part of a wider effort to elevate the profession, expand opportunities for engineers and members, and reinforce the Chamber’s role as a leading voice for the sector.

The Council extends its sincere appreciation to the outgoing council members; Inġ. Simon Abela, Mr. Tano Bugelli, and outgoing Student Representative Ms. Steph Borg, for their steadfast dedication, enthusiasm, and valuable contributions toward advancing the Chamber’s vision and the engineering profession.

Together with our members, stakeholders and partners, the Chamber remains committed to fostering growth, implementing new initiatives, and strengthening ongoing efforts for the benefit of engineers and the profession. We look forward to continuing to build on the strong foundations and legacy established through the dedication of previous Councils, further advancing the engineering profession while delivering continued value and support to our members.
