Greek businesses have made a dynamic "entry" into 2025, confirming the positive prospects of the domestic economy.

 

More than 18 major deals were announced in January, involving companies from key sectors, such as healthcare, infrastructure, retail, food, banks, technology, etc. These include acquisitions, mergers, investments and stock market transactions, which in total exceed 3 billion euros. Meanwhile, more deals are in the works, which could increase the above amount even further.

 

The first weeks of 2025 have seen several major deals. These include the mega Arab agreement for the Hellenic Health Group Hospital Group, Metlen’s new investment in Boeotia, the changes in Barba-Stathis, and the listing of Titan on the New York Stock Exchange. Additionally, there are talks between Masoutis and Kritikos supermarkets to the Motor Oil — Terna Energy partnership for the creation of offshore wind farms, the IPO of Alter Ego, and the start of the tenders for the expansion of Athens International Airport "El. Venizelos." These major transactions send a clear message of optimism for the future.

 

Greece, having emerged from the "dark" decade of economic crisis, now appears as one of the bright "beacons" of growth in Europe, with forecasts remaining optimistic for 2025.
