It all began in August 2020 with a simple idea: our founder, Alberto, hosted a casual gathering with a few friends in a coffee shop. After a long period of self-isolation due to the pandemic, people longed for social interactions, and the attendees positively welcomed this get-together. From then on, every month, Alberto organised gatherings whereby more and more people joined in.
Our development from a small gathering in a coffee shop to the thriving community that is The Aperitif has been a remarkable journey. What started with a handful of people quickly transformed into a network as attendees began bringing friends, colleagues, and acquaintances. To keep things fresh and exciting, we decided to switch up our venues every month, offering our attendees diverse settings and atmospheres.
As our numbers grew, we recognised the importance of expanding our horizons. We aimed to attract professionals from various industries, limiting attendees within the same field to foster diverse interactions and enrich networking opportunities. Last year, we decided to launch a new concept to elevate the value of our gatherings further, whereby we introduced occasional guest speakers who share their insights and knowledge.

February Aperitif [26.02.26 | 6.30 PM ]
Between winter’s calm and spring’s promise, February carries its own kind of energy: subtle, steady and quietly addictive. There is a theory that we seek small surges of joy to balance the slower days. Perhaps that is what our Aperitif has become for many - a healthy ritual that lifts the spirit and keeps the mind inspired.
Join us this February for an evening that blends good company with that familiar spark of satisfaction, the one that makes you glad you came.
We have a few events planned for the upcoming months. Explore our initiatives below and register to secure your spot.

Special Event - February 19th

Not every gathering is an Aperitif.
This time, Spire opens the door to a curated Experience Session, created in collaboration with Vistage and designed for a select group of business owners, CEOs and senior decision-makers.
This invitation-only session, running from 8:30 am to 12:30 pm, including arrivals, a facilitated discovery experience, reflection and time to explore what comes next, marks the first in a Spire × Vistage series. Participants will engage in a discovery-led format that mirrors real peer advisory dynamics: focused, candid, and driven by the issues that matter most at the table.
Numbers are intentionally limited. The focus is depth, perspective and real business dialogue.
This Experience Session is open exclusively to Spire members.
If this resonates, register your interest.
Aperitif - March 26th
Spring has a way of shifting perspective. The air feels different, strategies that seemed fixed start to flex and conversations take unexpected turns. March sits at an interesting crossroads: far enough into the year to know what's working, early enough to reshape what isn't. Our Aperitif this month is where recalibration happens naturally, where one insight shared over a drink might redirect an entire quarter. Join us for an evening that reminds you why the best business moves often start with the simplest question: "What if?"
Aperitif - April 30th
April is the quiet middle ground. The year's resolutions have been tested, summer holidays aren't yet on the horizon and business finds its natural rhythm. It's when people actually have time to think, not just react. Our Aperitif this month is less about chasing opportunities and more about recognising the ones already in motion. Join us for an evening where patience meets intention and where the best connections form without pressure.
Aperitif - May 28th
By late May, something softens. The days linger, conversations breathe and business begins to move with instinct as much as intention.
Our May Aperitif takes place in that in-between moment, where curiosity wins and ideas are shared before they are fixed into plans. It is an evening for those who value presence, perspective and the power of being in the right room with the right people.
A familiar rhythm, new faces, unspoken understandings and the sense that what’s exchanged here often carries forward.
Join us for our May Aperitif.

January set the tone for the year ahead in its own way. In a new Valletta setting and despite gale-force winds forecasted outside, a strong and spirited crowd gathered, proof that momentum is created by people, not by perfect conditions. The evening carried the energy of beginnings: ideas being tested, ambitions voiced and plans taking their first shape.
Thank you to everyone who joined us and made our January Aperitif such a confident start to the year. The photos hold the atmosphere of the night, take a look and revisit the moment.
December Event
December gave us a rare pause.
The last Aperitif of the year felt exactly like that: a moment to slow down, look back and simply be present. Conversations were easy and unhurried, the room was full of warmth and laughter and the festive mood made everything feel lighter. It wasn’t about closing the calendar, but about sharing ideas, reflections and a sense of where we are all heading next.
Now, as the new year begins, everything resets. Attendance goes back to zero, expectations are fresh and new connections are waiting to happen. With them come new conversations, new collaborations and business opportunities yet to take shape.
We move forward with appreciation for what we shared and real excitement for what’s ahead. Wishing everyone a year of meaningful encounters, growth, and many more moments around the table together.
Here is to new beginnings and a year full of possibility.
November’s Aperitif proved that the weather can set a mood, but people define the evening. While the storm outside kept us indoors and the terrace out of reach, it also created something unexpectedly special: a closer crowd, a warmer atmosphere and conversations that felt all the richer for it.
Thank you to everyone who joined and turned a grey forecast into a golden night. The photos capture the spirit far better than any description. Have a look and enjoy the moments once more.
