Athens, Greece. Seventeen Cypriot and 40 Greek companies participated in the Cyprus-Greece Business Forum on October 8, 2026, as business organisations from both countries sought to strengthen commercial ties and explore new partnerships.

Forum organisation and objectives

The forum was held at the Athens offices of the Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (Sev). It was organised by the Employers and Industrialists Federation (Oev) in cooperation with Sev, the Athens Chamber of Commerce and Industry, the Association of Exporters (Seve) and Enterprise Greece.

The organisers said the event aimed to further strengthen trade and business relations between Cyprus and Greece by bringing companies together for direct discussions.

Business meetings across six sectors

Participating companies held targeted business-to-business meetings to present their activities, exchange information and expertise, and explore potential new areas of cooperation.

The businesses represented six sectors: digital technology and security; water and heating; food and hospitality; sustainability; construction; and software and marketing.

Networking and international expansion

Oev said the strong response from participating businesses and the interest shown during the meetings demonstrated the value of initiatives designed to strengthen business networking and create new opportunities for cooperation.

The federation said the forum also helped further strengthen the economic and business relationship between Cyprus and Greece, building on their longstanding ties and the opportunities arising from closer cooperation between their business communities.

Oev said it would continue promoting the international expansion of Cypriot businesses through initiatives and activities aimed at developing trade and commercial relationships with other countries.
