The Board of Governors of Fondazzjoni Patrimonju Malti would like to announce the appointment of Mr Joseph Grioli as the new Chairman of its Foundation.
Mr Joseph Grioli certainly needs no introduction in business and finance circles. He read Accountancy and Economics at the Malta College of Arts, Science and Technology and the London Polytechnic, and furthered his studies in Management at the Institute for Management Development in Geneva.
Mr Grioli has held different management posts in a variety of industries, including man-made fabrics, hotels, electronics, pharmaceuticals, and was the first appointed Managing Director of Vodafone International, which led to him becoming a member of the council for Vodafone companies in Portugal, Spain, Italy, Greece, Malta, Egypt, Uganda and Kenya (SEMEA region).
Mr Grioli also set up the Malta Maritime Authority and subsequently was the Chairman of the consortium, which built the Malta Cruise Port. He also founded and headed the Mediterranean Cruise Port Association, of which he is still the Honorary President.
On the public front, he was a Director of the Malta Development Corporation, the Malta Export Trade Corporation, the Malta Council for Economic Development and chaired the board of a number of troubled Malta Government-owned companies.
Mr Grioli was the President of the Malta Federation of Industries for two years.
Currently, he is the Chairman of IIG Bank Malta plc and a Director on several boards governing investment funds and investment committees. He also acts as non-executive director of other Maltese service and manufacturing companies.
Mr Grioli is a proud Trustee of Inspire Foundation.
