In association with the Institute for Climate and Energy Security and C&C International, we are pleased to present the third annual Mediterranean Sustainable Energy Summit organised Under the Auspices of H.E. the President of the Hellenic Republic,
Dr. Karolos Papoulias.
This summit is defined by the region in which it is located, a potential hub for East-West sustainable energy developments and it is amongst the regions which will be hit hardest by climate change.
Taking place over two days, the comprehensive agenda will interpret the outcomes of the recent Copenhagen conference and the implications for future energy and environment policy development in the Mediterranean region.
The agenda for the 2010 summit will include a blend of keynote addresses, expert panel discussions and in-depth case studies, designed to inform and update attendees on the policies, practices and business opportunities which will define the future climate and sustainable energy developments of the region.
The forum will stimulate debate and dialogue on how to tackle the challenges that climate change presents in the Mediterranean and will discuss how we can grasp the opening to establish this region as the sustainable energy hub for Europe.
