Christian Sammut, CEO of BMIT Technologies, commented: "By acquiring a substantial shareholding in MPC, we are not just investing in property – we are investing in the infrastructure that underpins Malta’s digital future."

The transaction is contingent on several conditions precedent, including the necessary  regulatory clearances, and  shareholder approval. These conditions are expected to be fulfilled by the end of 2025.

BMIT Technologies anticipates that this acquisition will further reinforce its strategic positioning as a leading provider of digital infrastructure and cloud-based services, complementing its existing service portfolio with physical infrastructure ownership.

The Board of Directors of BMIT Technologies has unanimously approved the transaction following a detailed review by the Audit Committee, in line with Capital Markets Rules governing related party transactions.
