The National Conference on Growth for the new programming period 2021 - 2027 marks the official launch of the dialogue with all the productive forces, the social and the scientific actors and the policy makers. The ultimate objective of the conference is to formulate the strategic choices at national and regional level for all the critical issues of the new programming period in relation to growth and the socioeconomic issues.

This debate is evolving in parallel with the debate taking place among the European institutions on European policies, the new Regulations and the new Multiannual Financial Framework, i.e. the Union budget for the period 2021-2027.

Conducting a national conference on growth is a key means for establishing a modern and effective partnership relationship with all involved stakeholders. This would ensure the effective implementation of both the EU Structural and Investment Funds in Greece and the national resources that will support this effort, based on a strong code of conduct and a comprehensive partnership agreement.
