With a 25-year track record, the Capital Link Invest in Greece Forum has now become an institution—one which all the key market players anticipate, attend, and support each year.

Greece Heralds a New Dawn of Investments and Entrepreneurship – Updates Discussed During the Forum

Favorable political developments (strong government, no political risk), combined with strong economic dynamics, the prospect of the Greek economy gaining investment grade status and attractive valuations, strengthen investors’ confidence in the Greek market. Positive catalysts coming, such as the recovery fund, increased private investment, a stronger financial sector and the advantageous position of specific sectors such as tourism and energy, the Greek economy is expected to maintain strong growth in the coming years.

The transformation of the investment climate in Greece in recent years, the emergence of traditional and new competitive advantages and the opportunities offered by our country are but some of the aspects of the new reality and potential in Greece today. It has become one of the leaders in growth rates in Europe, one of the countries that is at the forefront of both the green and the digital transition. It has done well despite the double choc brought by the energy pricing and interest rate increase. Greece, amidst a difficult geopolitical and macroeconomic outlook and the tightening of the European monetary policy, continues its course to modernization while drawing the roadmap of stability and trust pursuing an ambitious reform agenda that would ensure long-term growth for the country and a favorable environment for foreign investments.

In this context, the Forum will highlight the significant progress made so far and the potential ahead; the strong resilience and positive prospects of the Greek economy, given the forthcoming obtaining of the investment grade which is predicted to open the door to new inflows to the country’s assets, and to the Athens Stock Exchange. The Forum will showcase Greece’s competitive advantages and focus on business and investment opportunities across the major sectors of the economy, as well as the challenges facing the global economy today. The timing for this Forum is excellent.
