On March 5, 2018, the 1st International Hellenic Gastronomy Conference 2018 “Greek taste beyond borders” will take place at the Athens Concert Hall.
The conference is under the auspices of the Ministry of Tourism, the Ministry of Economy and Development and the City of Athens and has already drawn the interest of the world’s most powerful tourist travel agents and the largest investment firms in gastronomic tourism.
Organised by Philip Koutras and Nikos Nasioutzik, the campaign was launched by Greece’s tourism and economy ministries together with the Athens Municipality and the Greek Federation of Restaurants & Associate Professions with the aim to promote Greece’s cuisine, food products, and gastronomic tourism globally.
The conference will feature some of the country’s acclaimed chefs, wine specialists and food writers come together, including Elias Mamalakis, Vangelis Driskas and Aris Tsanaklidis.
It will be an opportunity to share their knowledge and to put forward ideas on tapping into new markets abroad in the presence of tourism professionals.
If all goes well, there are plans to host similar conferences in other cities across Europe as well as in the United States.
