In 2021, JCI Malta took the growing friendship between JCI Malta, JCI Scotland, JCI UK and JCI Ireland and worked on both an event to kickstart the year together, as well as creating a new friendship name for the 4 JCI countries: JCI Collaborations. Kickstart 2021 was a day conference organised between the four countries aimed at creating synergies and room for project collaboration, twinnings, and friendship. Especially in a period where travel was impossible, the day conference served as a taster of the ‘i’ in JCI for members of each country.
