The aim of the European Green Deal is to activate at least 1 trillion euros in sustainable investments until 2030, as the Minister of Development, Takis Theodorikakos, said at the 28th annual Economist Conference “Government Roundtable”:

In particular, the minister stated:

“The investment plan of the European Green Deal (the so-called European Green Deal Investment Plan) aims to activate at least 1 trillion euros of sustainable investments by 2030.

This huge amount concerns public and private investments required for the transition to a climate-neutral, green and competitive economy.

So, the main objective of the Greek Ministry of Development, which is responsible for attracting new investments, is to mobilize the relevant investment funds in the field of green transition, providing and developing an attractive investment environment for foreign and Greek investors.

Since taking up my duties at the Ministry of Development, a few weeks ago, I have emphasized that one of my main goals is to create a new and sustainable production model in our country.

We will develop a network of multi-level actions and incentives that will strengthen businesses and create an even more attractive environment for new investments, with the aim of Greece attracting new capital mainly from abroad (so that new money flows into the Greek economy, which will leverage even more funds), while a significant portion of which we expect will be investments for the green transition.”
