About the event:

The Cyprus Diaspora Forum, founded by Paul Lambis, is recognised as one of the most strategic international business events, advancing Cyprus’ role as a competitive and forward-looking hub for trade, investment, and innovation. The Forum focuses on strengthening business relations between Cyprus and key global markets—including EU Member States, Greece, Malta, the Gulf and MENA regions, India, China, Australia, Africa, the USA, and Canada.

This four-day B2B and B2C event unites global Cypriot diaspora communities alongside influential leaders from Cyprus’ public and private sectors, academia, media, and civic society. With a strong emphasis on innovation and research commercialisation, the Forum not only recognises the contribution of the diaspora but also accelerates opportunities for entrepreneurship, cross-border investment, and international partnerships.

Beyond showcasing Cyprus’ unique geostrategic advantages, the Cyprus Diaspora Forum delivers a comprehensive outlook of the island’s major industries and sectors—from energy, tourism, shipping, real estate, and professional services to emerging fields such as film, fintech, health sciences, and green technologies—demonstrating the island’s growing impact on global markets.

The Cyprus Diaspora Forum attracts high-net-worth individuals, investors, and global corporations interested in Cyprus’ growth sectors and unique investment landscape. It also provides an unparalleled platform for establishing partnerships with local enterprises seeking to expand abroad, while spotlighting opportunities for scaling innovation-driven ventures.

The programme features high-level keynote presentations, panel discussions with global thought leaders, curated networking opportunities, and the prestigious CYDIA Awards, which celebrate excellence in business, innovation, and diaspora engagement.

By aligning diaspora strength, knowledge, and influence with Cyprus’ strategic sectors, the Cyprus Diaspora Forum is more than a networking platform—it is a catalyst for long-term investment, innovation, and sustainable growth, showcasing the island’s potential as a premier destination for international business and research-driven opportunities.
