Blue Heritage Summit Thessaloniki 2026 is a landmark three-day international forum bringing together heads of state, ministers, ambassadors, EU commissioners, business leaders, academics, and innovators from across Southeast Europe and the Mediterranean. Taking place on 17–19 March 2026 in Thessaloniki, Greece, the Summit convenes at two iconic venues — the Regional Council Hall of Central Macedonia and the Aimilios Riadis Hall at HELEXPO — to tackle the most defining economic and environmental questions of our era.

At its core, BHS 2026 is a call to action: to transform the Blue and Circular Economy from policy aspiration into regional competitive advantage. Over three intensive days, more than 100 speakers and dozens of panels explore the intersection of maritime sustainability, green innovation, climate resilience, cultural heritage, digital governance, agriculture, ports, tourism, and geopolitics — all through the lens of a sustainable, prosperous Southeast Europe.

From fireside chats with cabinet ministers and EU parliamentarians to deep-dive panels on smart ports, circular agriculture, AI-driven innovation, and responsible investment, BHS 2026 is where strategy meets action — and where Greece asserts its role as a hub of blue-green leadership in an era of global transition.

The Summit is held under the auspices of leading national and international organizations, including SEVE, HELMEPA, CSR Hellas, the International Propeller Club Port of Piraeus, the Green Fund, the Hellenic Ports Association, the Hellenic French Chamber of Commerce, ΕΕΤΗ, and the Greek Association of Supply Chain Management — reflecting the breadth of institutional commitment behind this defining conversation on Greece's sustainable future.
