What is the Capital Link Forum About?
Capital Link’s Annual International Forum is returning to New York City on Monday, December 9, 2024. Entitled “Greece – Speeding Ahead Post Investment Upgrade,” this prestigious event will be held in person at the Metropolitan Club. Recognized as the longest-running Investment Summit about Greece taking place abroad, the forum serves as a vital platform to strengthen business and investment ties between the United States and Greece while spotlighting Greece as a premier global investment destination.
With over 1,000 delegates in attendance, the event is held in cooperation with the New York Stock Exchange, the Athens Exchange Group, and major global investment banks. Organized under the auspices of the Consulate General of Greece in New York, it remains a testament to the resilience of Greek economic potential, regardless of prevailing political or economic conditions.
Why is Investing in Greece an Attractive Prospect?
Greece’s economic revival is underway, and the forum will focus on the country’s dynamic resurgence as a key investment hub. With its recent Investment Grade Rating upgrade, Greece now attracts long-term capital and enjoys favorable liquidity conditions. This milestone unlocks access to a wealth of opportunities for global investors, supported by the nation’s extensive efforts in digitalization and the introduction of lucrative tax incentives.
The forum will showcase Greece’s diverse investment sectors, including infrastructure, hospitality, real estate, agriculture, innovation, energy, and logistics. Greece’s unique geographic position at the crossroads of Europe, Asia, and Africa enhances its appeal as a hub for emerging and mature markets, fostering innovation and talent acquisition.
What Can Attendees Expect from the Forum?
The forum will shine a spotlight on the significant economic progress Greece has made while exploring its potential for further growth. Attendees will gain insights into Greece’s competitive advantages and investment opportunities across key sectors, alongside discussions about current challenges in the European and global economies.
Keynote presentations will feature Greek Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis (via webcast), prominent Greek ministers, and other high-ranking officials. A highlight of the forum is its one-on-one meetings, where investors, company leaders, and government officials can connect, offering unique networking and business development opportunities.
Who Will Be Honored at the Event?
The forum concludes with an official dinner at the Union League Club, where the 2024 Annual Capital Link Hellenic Leadership Award will be presented to Dr. Yannis Stournaras, Governor of the Bank of Greece. Dr. Stournaras’s exemplary contributions to Greece and Europe—spanning his tenure as Minister of Finance, Governor of the Bank of Greece, and other roles—will be celebrated.
