Central to this thinking is the choice of Alexandroupolis as the host-city of the Forum. A port city situated in the crossroads of East and West, Alexandroupolis has the potential to transform into a regional commercial, energy and transportation hub with great strategic importance.
The East Macedonia and Thrace Forum weaves together the political, business, academic and social fabric of the region by hosting intense dialogue between local and regional leaders on the most strong trends and pressing issues affecting the region.
This third edition of the Forum, which is already becoming a standard fixture of the political and business calendar, features – among others – sessions on innovation and the role of higher education, exports and industrial growth, success stories from local entrepreneurs, connectivity and infrastructure, balancing security and compassion while managing migration, technology-driven agriculture and fishery and climate change adaptation and natural disasters mitigation.
