Imagine the bustling streets of Valletta, Malta’s capital, on a typical morning. The sun is up, and so are the workers, merchants, and officials, each playing their part in the city’s symphony.

A seasoned professional with over two decades of experience in the construction and development industry, Galea has worn many hats – from project manager to director. His resume boasts an impressive portfolio of projects, from residential developments in St. Julian’s to commercial ventures in Mriehel. But it’s not just about the bricks and mortar for Galea. It’s about the people, the communities, and the future of Malta’s built environment.

Born and bred in Malta, Galea understands the island’s unique challenges and opportunities. He’s seen the construction boom, the economic growth, and the need for sustainable development. “Malta’s development sector is at a crossroads,” says Galea. “We need visionary leadership to of our island’s urban scene and ensure a sustainable future for all.”

The MDA, established in 1970, is the voice of Malta’s development sector. It represents the interests of developers, promotes best practices, and advocates for policy reform. With Galea at the helm, the MDA is set to turn a new page. “I’m honoured to take on this role,” says Galea. “I look forward to working with our members, government stakeholders, and other industry players to drive progress and ensure a balanced, sustainable approach to development.”

Galea’s priorities are clear: promoting sustainable development, advocating for policy clarity, and fostering collaboration among industry stakeholders. He’s also committed to engaging with the public, ensuring that their voices are heard in the development process. “We’re not just building structures,” he says. “We’re shaping Malta’s future. And that future should be inclusive, sustainable, and responsive to the needs of all Maltese people.”
