The European Space Policy Institute (ESPI) is pleased to welcome Xjenza Malta (Science Malta) as the newest member to the Institute.
About Xjenza Malta
Established in 2024, Xjenza Malta is Malta’s Government Agency acting as the national R&D and space funding agency, and the policy development and implementation body in the area of Research, Innovation and Space. It is entrusted with the development and management of the national R&I and space policy frameworks, overseeing and coordinating the national research and space strategy implementation through programming efforts, including the direct management of the national public budgetary allocation for Research, Innovation and Space.
Our membership within ESPI represents another milestone in our efforts in developing Malta’s space ecosystem. We consider ESPI a most important and invaluable resource center for enhancing our competences, capabilities, and international networking reach. In this regard, we truly look forward to developing sustainable and long-term working relationships with a variety of established and reputable actors forming part of the wider ESPI community.
A growing space ambition in Europe’s emerging nations will be Europe’s key foundational strengths in the space race of future, to stay competitive and relevant on the global stage. It takes a village to translate a dynamic European ecosystem into coherent action guided by shared vision, with each actor contributing according to their priorities and ambitions. We are excited to welcome Xjenza Malta in ESPI’s membership community, leveraging the energy and drive ramping up in Malta’s space ecosystem.
