BMIT Technologies Renews Multi-year Sponsorship of Otters Swimming School

Ongoing partnership supports Gozo’s only dedicated swimming school for children and teenagers

BMIT Technologies has renewed its sponsorship of Otters Swimming Academy, extending its support for Gozo’s only specialised swimming programme for children and teens.

This multi-year partnership has helped Otters offer dedicated swimming lessons to hundreds of young people across Gozo, giving more children the chance to develop their skills in a safe, structured, and supportive environment. The renewed sponsorship will help the club extend its reach even further in the year ahead.

“We’re proud to continue supporting Otters Swimming Academy and the important work they do in our community,” said Jack Mizzi, Chief Digital & Market Enablement Officer at BMIT. Swimming is not just a sport. It’s a fundamental life skill. Our sponsorship plays a direct role in helping young people across the island gain confidence, discipline and safety in the water.”

Otters Swimming Academy provides children as young as five with a structured pathway through four development stages, starting from basic aquatic mobility and progressing to more advanced swimming and training techniques. The programme is run by qualified coaches and supports swimmers of all abilities.

“For several years, BMIT has been a true partner in our mission to make swimming lessons more accessible,” said Enzo Dimech, President of Otters Aquatic Sports Club and of Otters Swimming Academy. “Together we are helping young people across Gozo, building not just skills, but a stronger, healthier community. Their continued commitment allows us to grow the programme and reach even more children each year.”

The renewed sponsorship forms part of BMIT’s broader commitment to supporting local initiatives that promote youth development, wellbeing, and education. Just last month, BMIT announced its support for para powerlifter Nick Mercieca on his journey to the Paralympics in 2028.
