Where Business Meets Pleasure: Athens' Event Industry Buzzes with Local and International Activity
The energy of Athens' professional events industry is palpable, with local companies making significant strides both at home and on the international stage.
After organizing several major international congresses in the capital, the conference management company Global Events has officially solidified its presence by becoming a member of the "This is Athens" Convention & Visitors Bureau". Similarly, the event management company CONVIN is celebrating a month of milestones, having co-organized the pan-European youth innovation festival GEN-E 2025 in Athens while also marking 20 years of partnership with ICCA at its recent summit in Belgrade.
The diversity of local expertise was also on display as events service provider Podium highlighted its versatility with high-profile engagements, attending the French national holiday celebration and providing live interpretation for the MasterChef Greece television competition. This leadership extends beyond city limits, AFEA Congress was present at "The Women Network" gathering in Thessaloniki where professional connections were fostered. To share these kinds of stories with the world, the events company ERA Congresses & Events has just launched "neoterα," a new biannual newsletter offering an exclusive look into their work, with the first edition now available.
