Innovation, technology, and strategic collaborations took center stage at Mastercard‘s Athens Innovation Forum 2025, held on Thursday, October 23. The event brought together leading executives from the banking, financial, and business sectors, institutional representatives, and senior company officials. More than just an annual meeting, the forum serves as a key platform for dialogue on the future of payments and digital economy in Greece.
Under the theme “Innovating the Future Together,” this year’s forum was hosted at Piraeus 260, in a modern, tech-forward setting that reflected Mastercard’s core philosophy—innovation and outward-looking perspectives.
The agenda focused on factors reshaping the global and domestic payment ecosystems: the digital transformation of the banking sector, rapid advances in artificial intelligence, enhanced cybersecurity, and strategic partnerships shaping the new era of commerce. Through dynamic speeches and high-level discussions, the forum highlighted emerging opportunities on how technology and collaboration are shaping a resilient and sustainable digital economy for Greece’s future.
