The Delphi Paris Forum II, scheduled for January 23-24, will bring together French and Greek government officials, policymakers, economists, academics, and leading business figures. The forum aims to strengthen the longstanding relationship between the two nations and explore opportunities for further collaboration across various sectors.

In addition to the forum, Minister Kefalogianni will attend a special event at UNESCO House titled “Culture and Creativity in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.”

Throughout her visit, the Greek Tourism Minister will engage with French media outlets and hold a series of meetings with representatives from French tourism organizations. She will also visit the French branch of the Greek National Tourism Organization (GNTO) to discuss strategies and priorities for promoting Greece within the French market.
