Greek technology facilitator Endeavor Greece has launched Innovation Nation, the first national campaign dedicated to positioning Greece as a thriving innovation hub.
Backed by five government ministries – Culture, Development, Digital Governance, Foreign Affairs and Tourism – along with Greece’s leading investment promotion organizations, the campaign highlights Greece’s growing prominence in the world of technology and business. With over 2 million people already reached through online and offline channels, including social media, and metro stations and airports, the campaign is shaping Greece’s future as a global leader in innovation.
Over the past several years, Greece has been steadily attracting and fostering investments in its technology sector, from startups to data centers, from R&D hubs to technology incubators, while it is increasingly developing into a regional technology hub for Southeast Europe and the Eastern Mediterranean. Recently, the Greek Cabinet approved legislation to provide a super tax deduction in certain categories of research investments of up 315%. In addition, earlier this month, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis announced a new class of Golden Visa for those investing €250,000 in a Greek tech startup.
