The proposals of the working groups and plenary session will be made available in a concise paper titled “Initiative for Foreign Investments in Greece – 2022,” which will be distributed to the government, the political parties, the Parliament and other institutions.
Participating at the conference will be Finance Minister Christos Staikouras, Development and Investments Minister Adonis Georgiadis, the general secretary for economic diplomacy and openness at the Foreign Ministry and chairman of Enterprise Greece, Ioannis Smyrlis, the head of the Prime Minister’s Economic Office, Alex Patelis, and Hellenic Federation of Enterprises (SEV) President Dimitris Papalexopoulos.

The CEO of Public Affairs and Networks and founder of The Greeks Are Back initiative, Andreas Yannopoulos, said: “Greek senior executives at major international companies around the world will once again, for the second year in a row, lend their expertise to the 2nd The Greeks Are Back Conference. Coming to Athens for two days and devoting significant time away from their busy professional schedules, these executives will formulate specific public policy proposals that can enhance the attractiveness of Greece as investment destination.”
