Less than three weeks before the event, EcoForward Cyprus is inviting the public, families, entrepreneurs and businesses to register for a full day of practical sustainability on Sunday, 29 November 2026 at St. Raphael Resort, Limassol. Attendees can choose between a Free Access Pass and a Full Access Pass.
EcoForward Cyprus brings together people, businesses, creators and educators in a friendly, inspiring setting to discover small, achievable steps towards a more sustainable way of living and doing business. It is not a niche eco-event or a CSR/ESG conference. It is designed for the general public and local businesses: individuals who want greener habits, SMEs looking to modernise operations, brands committed to sustainability, and anyone curious to learn and meet new people.
The event is built around three experiences:
• Exhibition and Kids Zone: More than 28 Cyprus-based brands and organisations will showcase practical solutions for the home and the workplace, from renewable energy and electric bikes to natural cosmetics, upcycled fashion, sustainable furniture, organic food and wine, and community and environmental initiatives. A dedicated Kids Zone supported by The Island School will help younger visitors learn about sustainability in a fun way, there will be also a Children Book Fair organized by Vestnik Kipra from 11:00 to 14:00 and a toy swap organised by Kids2Kids Market from 15:00 to 17:00.
• Material Library. The Material Library project, developed in collaboration with Frederick University and Samples Gallery, will explore the creative potential of materials we already have. Using discarded textiles, ropes, wires and offcuts donated by the Samples Gallery, interior design students will create experimental furniture through a live installation, from 11:00 to 14:00, located at the heart of the EcoForward exhibition space. Material Library invites us to rethink waste and offcuts, discover new possibilities in existing resources and see circular design in action.
• Inspiring talks: Short, practical 15-minute talks will give visitors ideas they can use at home straight away. Topics include building a capsule wardrobe, choosing better and less-toxic products, creating healthier, low-toxic spaces for children, understanding food and product labels, making your own natural beauty products, rethinking plastic as a resource, sorting household waste, and finding ways to volunteer and turn good intentions into action.
• B2B conference and networking zone: Entrepreneurs, SMEs and professionals can join panel discussions on food waste management, sustainable tourism, sustainable gastronomy, sustainable business practices, green finance, sustainable shipping, sustainable construction, architecture and design, social entrepreneurship, and AI and technology in sustainability. A Live Business Challenge will offer an open working session with no presentations and no theory. Pre-scheduled one-to-one meetings begin at 09:00, and participants can book meetings with exhibitors and other attendees through a web-based app (available only to Full Pass Holders obtained online before November 21).
• Workshops: Currently, there are two workshops available in the program. Kourellou Weaving Workshop by Andreani Panayide, founder of a Cypriot fashion brand Folkmona during which visitors can connect with the heritage of Cyprus through this hand-on guided experience. No need to bring a thing just your enthusiasm. Free registration through this link.
Another workshop is The Green Reset: Creative Moss Workshop is by Laura Stefania Efthymiou, founder of Design with Moss. You’ll have the opportunity to work with moss, explore its textures and benefits, and design your own exquisite preserved moss piece. Participation fee is 35 euro. Registration can be done through this link.
The exhibition is open to the public from 11:00 to 19:00, with talks and the conference running from 11:00 to 18:00.
More than 35 speakers, panelists and special guests will take part, including environmental scientists and marine biologists, sustainability consultants, chefs, architects and interior designers, hospitality and tourism leaders, founders of local social and green enterprises, educators, content creators and representatives of leading environmental organisations in Cyprus.
• Free Access Pass (free): exhibition area, talks and workshops for the public, and open networking areas. Ideal for visitors, families and anyone who wants to explore practical sustainability solutions. Register here.
• Full Access Pass (€10 online / €15 at the door): everything in the Free Pass, plus access to the B2B talks area, the ability to schedule meetings with exhibitors and participants, and professional networking with businesses and experts. Get your pass here.
80% of the proceeds from Full Access Passes will support projects of City Friends Club and ECOmbare, including environmental clean-ups, tree-planting in Cyprus and educational initiatives promoting responsible living.
Everyone who registers online gets the chance to enter a lottery for prizes donated by the event’s sponsors, and visitors who complete activities during the event can win further prizes. Registered attendees are also the first to receive programme and speaker updates. Registration helps the organisers plan seating and resources responsibly.
Sustainability isn’t just a movement for a few. It’s for all of us, and it shouldn’t be perfect. We just need to start with tiny steps forward.
