Entrepreneurship is synonymous with risk and uncertainty. As much as many try to deny it or reform it, change and entrepreneurship do not go together with “certainty”. The business person is the one who seeks change and invests in his country and abroad. It exploits it and invests in new products, new services, new methods and processes of production, new ways of distribution and new markets.

Entrepreneurship of Limassol

The decade we are going through is a milestone for the development of the local economy and entrepreneurship in Limassol, as the city of Limassol has seen unprecedented growth in recent years. Limassol has all the qualities to become the business star of the eastern Mediterranean, a city that attracts foreign investment and is slowly and steadily establishing itself as the headquarters of global multinational companies.

FDI is a key driver of economic growth and fortunately, Limassol has managed to attract significant investment in recent years. Of particular interest are global technological giants who choose the Cypriot city to install large data centers and international innovation centers, where after a few years many young Cypriots and young Cypriots with high qualifications will be working. The leading role that foreign companies will play in the coming years in the development of the economy will sharply increase demand with a positive impact on the country.

Trends, challenges, opportunities

After all, why do investors choose Limassol for large-scale projects? How can the city become even more attractive? Answers will be given by four key figures who will participate in a round table discussion as part of the 2nd Limassol Business and Investment Summit presented by Prospectacy Ltd and which will be held on June 3, 2022. The panel will include Max Portelli, CFO of BrainRocket and member of Techisland, Petr Valov, CEO of Exness and member of Techisland, Kevin Sweet, Vice President of Finance/Property CFO of Melco Cyprus and Oren Plotkin, Managing Partner of Emerland Real Estate by Gilad Shabtai.

Education, industry and healthcare will be put under the microscope in an attempt to find solutions to the problems encountered in these industries.

A discussion will also be held regarding real estate. After all, a big challenge is balancing between attracting high-end international buyers and offering affordable housing to locals. Conference speakers will present overall the positive effects of the presence of foreign investors in the city and the ways in which the leading investment destination is called upon to adapt to the demands of the international market.
