As one of the world’s most globally engaged nations, Canada—and Toronto in particular—offers a dynamic setting shaped by its diverse diasporas. The Greek-Canadian community exemplifies this influence, playing a vital role in the city’s social, economic, and political life. Leveraging our broad Greek network across sectors, we are uniquely positioned to bring the region’s authentic voice to Canadian audiences.

• Be part of an institution: Over the past three editions, the Forum has established itself as a platform for meaningful dialogue and impactful collaboration.
  
  
• Engage with thought leaders: Hear directly from top decision-makers and industry experts.
  
  
• Network with influence: Connect with leaders shaping economic policy and business growth in Canada and Greece.

Following the forum, guests joined us at the Oloi Mazi Gala, hosted by The Hellenic Initiative Canada. This year, we were proud to present Vassy Kapelos and Nik Nanos in a fireside chat on “Navigating the Maze of Politics and Policy in a Turbulent World.”
