The Cyprus Diaspora Forum is structured as a comprehensive four-day event, incorporating physical gatherings and B2B (Business-to-Business) meetings. The agenda is rich and diverse, aimed at fostering entrepreneurship, innovation, philanthropy, and cultural engagement among Cypriots and friends of Cyprus. The forum has consistently attracted interest from influential figures and foreign investors, drawn by Cyprus' burgeoning sectors and unique investment landscapes.
The Cyprus Diaspora Forum also boasts an array of one-on-one keynote panel conversations with pioneering individuals from various corners of the world. These sessions feature illustrious personalities such as Theo Paphitis, Peter Abraam, John Christodoulou, George Logothetis, Dr. Linda Papadopoulos, Tasoula Hadjitofi, Dr. Panteli Theocharous, Panos A Panay, and Dr. Stavros Nicolaou, among many others, offering rare insights into their success stories and perspectives on global issues. This segment not only enriches the forum's content but also provides unparalleled networking opportunities for attendees.
A highlight of the forum is the strategic support from the Cyprus Chamber of Commerce and Industry – coordinator of the Enterprise Europe Network Cyprus – who will be organising an on-site Matchmaking Event during the four days, involving pre-arranged bilateral meetings that offer attendees the opportunity to discover potential partners aligned with their interests and investment-worthy projects. The Matchmaking Event is open to investors, companies, startups, entrepreneurs, research institutions, universities, and other organisations of any field as the Cyprus Diaspora Forum covers a variety of different sectors.
The forum will conclude with a grand gala dinner, featuring the CYDIA AWARDS 2024. This prestigious ceremony honours distinguished individuals from the diaspora, celebrating their contributions and achievements. It serves as a fitting finale to an event that encapsulates the spirit of community, achievement, and shared heritage, while paving the way for future collaborations.
