MASANAS Sponsors the Official Launch of the British Bird of Prey Centre's New Home

MASANAS, the philanthropic venture arm and investment company founded by award-winning entrepreneur Mark Sweeny, has announced its sponsorship of the official launch of the British Bird of Prey Centre's impressive new home in Carmarthenshire, celebrating the continued growth of one of Wales's leading conservation and visitor attractions.

The Centre's new facility represents a significant step forward, providing more space for its birds, expanding its conservation and education programmes, and enhancing the visitor experiences that have inspired thousands of people since opening in 2018.

The official launch will bring together business leaders, entrepreneurs and key stakeholders from across Wales to celebrate the Centre's remarkable journey and ambitious vision for the future. Delivered in partnership by the British Bird of Prey Centre and IoD Wales, and proudly sponsored by MASANAS, the event will demonstrate how collaboration, innovation and shared ambition can create lasting benefits for communities, tourism and the Welsh economy.

The sponsorship reflects MASANAS' commitment to investing in ambitious people and organisations that are making a positive difference across Wales. Whether backing growing businesses, community projects or purpose-driven organisations, MASANAS exists to turn ambition into action, creating opportunities that deliver lasting benefits for communities and future generations.

Mark Sweeny, Founder and Chief Executive of MASANAS, said:

“What Emma and the team have achieved deserves real recognition. They've created a visitor attraction that is educating people, supporting conservation and making a positive contribution to Wales.

This new home is the result of years of hard work and belief in what they were building. At MASANAS, we're passionate about backing people with that kind of vision because the impact goes far beyond the organisation itself. It creates opportunities, inspires future generations and leaves something meaningful behind.”

Emma Hill, Director of the British Bird of Prey Centre, said:

“This is a really proud moment for all of us. We've poured so much into creating a home that gives our birds the environment they deserve while allowing us to do so much more through conservation, education and visitor experiences.

We're incredibly grateful to MASANAS for supporting our launch. Their belief in backing ambitious organisations makes them a valued partner as we continue to grow and inspire more people to discover and protect Britain's birds of prey.”

Guests attending the launch on Thursday 10 September will have the opportunity to look around the Centre's new facilities, enjoy a spectacular flying display, hear from a guest speaker and network with business leaders from across Wales, while discovering more about the Centre's exciting plans for the future.
