AKTINES is the new institutional platform for strategic thinking and dialogue launched by the Association of Cypriot Professionals in Greece (SKEE). It was created to bring Cyprus, Greece, and the global Hellenic diaspora together around the ideas, challenges, and strategies that shape our collective future.

It is an enduring institution that aspires to establish itself as a benchmark for meaningful public dialogue, focusing on long-term value, responsible leadership, and strategic thinking. 

An Institution with a Mission

AKTINES fosters a high-level environment for dialogue, where the exchange of ideas is grounded in knowledge, expertise, and diverse perspectives.

Specifically, the platform:

• Bridges Greece and Cyprus through a shared strategic reflection.

• Connects diaspora excellence with local and regional leadership.

• Highlights critical issues shaping the future, including leadership, geopolitics, resilience, technology, and education.

• Cultivates dialogue that leads to actionable insights and real-world impact.

In an era of growing complexity, AKTINES aims to serve as a cohesive framework for strategic thought—built on continuity, institutional memory, and lasting value.

Core Principles of AKTINES

• Excellence & Quality: Participation is defined by substance, featuring select speakers and attendees with proven expertise, insight, and contributions.

• Strategic Orientation: Every event is centered around a key strategic question that guides the discussions and agenda.

• Outward Focus & Connectivity: AKTINES strengthens ties between Greece, Cyprus, and the Hellenic diaspora, placing discussions within a broader international context.

• Institutional Continuity: Rather than a standalone event, AKTINES is an evolving institution designed to build knowledge, consistency, and institutional depth over time

Target Audience

AKTINES is designed for members of SKEE, key leaders, senior executives, entrepreneurs, academics, and decision-shapers across business, institutions, and academia in Greece, Cyprus, and abroad.

Special emphasis is given to the next generation of leaders—professionals aged approximately 30–45 who are actively shaping, or preparing to shape, the major decisions of tomorrow.

Event Structure

Each AKTINES edition features:

• One core strategic question driving the agenda.

• Two to three thematic sessions exploring different dimensions of the topic.

• A curated panel of speakers recognized for their expertise, experience, and contributions to public discourse.

The Launch 

The inaugural AKTINES event will take place on September 30, 2026, marking the launch of an initiative destined to become a landmark for strategic thinking, responsible dialogue, and global Hellenic connectivity.
