Delphi Economic Forum X - Shaping the future amid global shifts

The Delphi Economic Forum X opens its doors on Wednesday, April 9, 2025, in the historic city of Delphi. In an era of continuous and rapid change, where geopolitical balances are being shaken and the world as we know it is being redefined, the Forum will serve as a platform for meaningful dialogue on key issues that shape international reality and determine the future.
From war fronts in neighboring countries and energy uncertainty, to geo-economic changes, European cohesion, rapid technological progress and the emergence of political forces that change events, this year's topics include cutting-edge issues such as Security, Defense, Innovation, the Single Market and the Green Transition, as well as relations with the US, Russia and China. At the same time, the prospects of the Greek economy and its dynamic sectors, such as Shipping, Tourism, Digital Technologies and Energy, will be discussed.
