Representatives of the two regions are expected to present the conditions and prospects for investment, as well as sectors where joint commercial projects are possible. Participants will examine the institutional, tax and legal frameworks of Cyprus and Greece that may help promote investment.
Access to broader markets
One of the main topics will be the use of Cyprus and northern Greece as platforms for companies to enter other markets. In particular, the summit will consider the possibility for Cypriot companies to use Thessaloniki as a base for expanding operations in the Balkans. At the same time, Cyprus may become a platform for companies from northern Greece seeking to enter Arab markets.
Representatives of Invest Cyprus, Enterprise Greece, Keve, the Cyprus-Greece Business Association, banks, investment organisations and funds, auditing and law firms have also been invited to the event. The programme provides for business networking and discussion of potential partnerships between companies from the two regions.
