Let’s face it, Greece is blessed in so many ways. Greece is considered the epicentre of Western Civilisation, being the birthplace of democracy, medicine, historiography, political science, theatre, the Olympic Games and many more.
It is situated at a privileged position between three continents, Europe, Asia, and Africa, straight in the middle of Mediterranean Sea. Its unique geo-strategic location has made the country, since ancient times, a constant target of the great powers as it traverses the most important and major trade routes and includes strategic passes.
The recent discovery of immensenatural gas reserves, being over 2,000 billion cubic metres, in the Eastern Mediterranean, means that Greece could soon, as 2027, serve as an energy hub between European markets and regional producers.It also possesses the world’s largest commercial fleet operating globally. The ports of Piraeus, Salonica and Alexandroupoli operate as gateways to the European Union and the Black Sea.
Greece is boasting a superlative climate. It is averaging 2769 hours of sunshine per year, more than any other country in Europe with mild winters and temperatures rarely drop below 10 degrees Celsius.
Greece’s physical geography, including mountain ranges, volcanos, pristine beaches, and numerous islands (around 200 of which are inhabited), offers a plethora of activities for all those who are fit and activesuch as skiing in the winter, swimming in the summer (with no sharks), hiking, golfing, cycling and the list goes on.
Greece has transformed from a growing economy in recent years into an emerging economy that is now on the rise. Emerging economies have been always an attraction for investors.
