You can’t in what you can’t see!
Greece’s Investing Ecosystem is bigger than it looks. Many impact , or organisations still don’t appear on any map, and that means can’t reach them.

📊 The Hellenic Impact Map & Report is our chance to change that. The HIIN is leading the country’s impact and sustainability ecosystem mapping, and the 1st Hellenic Impact Report was the first big milestone. This year, we want to show how far Greece has come since then, who is driving growth, and where the next opportunities are to be found.

☝️ Last call to map your impact! Impact , , , NGOs, institutions or social : if you create impact, make sure your impact becomes visible in the 15min-questionnaire: https://thehiin.org/impactreport2026

Such information is of high importance for the HIIN and the positioning of as a global impact lab developing and testing replicable models for MSME finance, , the and .

We look forward to connecting with investors, practitioners and ecosystem builders working on these challenges.

1.
Clean Energy, , Efficient Grids, Industrial Decarbonisation, Building Efficiency and low-carbon e-mobility.

2.

A global challenge but also a and Med / SEE challenge.
Greece’s updated energy and climate plan points to 43% renewables in gross final energy consumption by 2030, a 2028 phase-out of for power generation, and a 57% reduction in total GHG emissions by 2030. (Transport remains the largest source of emissions among Greece’s Effort Sharing sectors, while climate risks are already affecting water availability and critical infrastructure).

At the we work to move the discussion from awareness to capital deployment with investable opportunities and their scale-up and commercialization in the region. The transition should be led by the Greek government & industry.
