In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, ISTAT committed, by way of the ISTAT Foundation, US$500,000 in COVID-19 relief funding to 12 aviation-focused charities across the globe in June and July. View updates from the COVID-19 grant recipients here.

After much consideration of the safety and well-being of our attendees, volunteers and venue staff, we have made the difficult decision to postpone the Second Annual ISTAT Foundation Dublin Golf Tournament scheduled for Thursday, 17 September 2020 to Thursday, 20 May 2021. At that time, we hope to be able to host the tournament in its originally intended format. For more information, click here.
