YES Forum is the leading platform for an open dialogue within the Greek Shipping and Sea Tourism Industries among principals, executives, university students, recent graduates and young executives. The main aim of YES Forum is the creation of a comprehensive connection and understanding between young people and our Greek shipping and tourism history. YES FORUM is taking place under the auspices of the Ministries of Shipping, Education, Tourism, GNTO, Hellenic Chamber of Shipping and the majority of Greek Universities.
This year’s goal is to inform young people about the distinctive features of sea tourism and cruising along with the employment prospects and professional trajectories. Once again, all participants will have the opportunity to ask questions before and during the Forum and dialogue directly with the distinguished executives.
The welcoming addresses will be made by: Danae Bezantakou, CEO – NAVIGATOR SHIPPING CONSULTANTS & Concept Founder - YES Forum, Dr. Panagiota Dionysopoulou, Head of the General Directorate of Tourism Policy–Ministry of Tourism, Dorra Giannaki, Special Advisor in the General Secretariat for Youth, Theodore Kontes, President - President Union of Cruise Ship Owners & Associated Members.
This year’s research has been carried out to enable young people to express their opinion on sea tourism and employment prospects. The results will be compared with those of the respective survey answered by companies active in the sea tourism sector in order to compare the supply and demand. Xenia Kourtoglou, Founder & Managing Partner, FOCUS BARI will introduce the data.
