Eugenides Foundation
ROOTS SUMMIT 2024 is to be held in the conference halls of the Eugenides Foundation, a landmark building complex right next to the waterside, but still close to the city centre. It was established in 1956 implementing the will of Eugenios Eugenidis, who had died in 1954.
Two large lecture halls and two floors for exhibition assure enough space to showcase, get together, educate and meet again after two years.
The Eugenides Foundation has been hosting scientific and technical education events for over 60 years in its purpose-built lecture theatre. In the last 20 years alone, the fully renovated conference and lecture rooms have hosted over 1,400 Greek and international events and welcomed 470,000 participants.
A special highlight will be the foundation’s planetarium, which ROOTS SUMMIT attendees can visit during the conference days.
