The Athens Investment Forum taking place today (31.03) in Athens highlights the contribution of Greek listed companies and the Athens stock exchange to a new entrepreneurship model that is export-oriented and innovation-driven. The forum touches upon non-listed companies as well, since they progressively rely more on markets and less on banks for their funding, thus seeking to draw lessons from the already listed companies.

It aims to address important questions concerning the Greek economy and will present the initiatives needed to exploit its capacity. The Forum invites members of the government, senior business executives, investors, academic experts, as well as members of Business Associations and Chambers of Commerce to identify growth prospects in Greece. The event is held by the Greek Listed Companies Association and the Hellenic Institute of Entrepreneurship (I.E.A).
