At International Hospitality Investment Forum (IHIF) Berlin, Roger had the privilege of meeting distinguished representatives from the Greek Government, including the Secretary-General for International Economic Affairs Vasiliki - Vicky Loizou, and from Enterprise Greece: Marinos Giannopoulos, Akis Sklavos, and Hilda Alisandratou.

During our discussion, we focused on our new journey in the stunning Porto Heli / Peloponnese region, which we embark on with the visionary Riyan Itani, CEO of Branded Residences. In the scope of this exceptional project, we are proud to introduce two branded residential developments that will redefine luxury living and resort experience in the breathtaking Mediterranean paradise.

At RLA Global, we have long recognised the immense potential of Greece as a top-tier destination. The recent acquisition of a controlling stake in the Greek luxury beach resort operator Sani/Ikos Group by the Singaporean sovereign wealth fund GIC further validates our belief. This remarkable development not only enriches the tourism landscape but also highlights the vast opportunities for year-round destinations in Greece.

We extend our heartfelt appreciation to the representatives of the Greek Government and Enterprise Greece for paving the way to carry out high-profile developments and touristic projects to flourish in this wonderful country.
