The event invites U.S. investors, European expat business leaders and worldly professionals to meet representatives of six dynamic entrepreneurial, tech and life-science companies from Cyprus, a European Union nation in the eastern Mediterranean, with U.S. differentiated and scalable value propositions. In addition to these six investment opportunities, event attendees will meet Chrysalis LEAP, a successful Cleantech accelerator based in Cyprus with incredible connections into the European Cleantech ecosystem. The founders from Chrysalis LEAP will share their vision and activities around establishing Cyprus as a Mediterranean regional hub for Cleantech innovation. 

“There is a new and exciting entrepreneurial momentum building up in Cyprus” says Nicolas Nicolaou, president of the CYPRUS – U.S. Chamber of Commerce. “Not only is there momentum stemming from Cyprus’ favorable business tax structures, but within the last decade, the economic and social conditions in combination with the influx of higher education academic institutions have increased the research grants which are fueling Cypriot ingenuity and entrepreneurism in the technology and innovation arena. This interesting convergence of activity is starting to generate ventures with relevancy, scalability and competitive value propositions that can compete on larger economic stages.”

The Cypriot companies that were selected to pitch at the May 2nd event, include Coprime, NanoWeld, StagedoorApp, FabrikQ, NIPD Genetics, and Proto.io. All are powered by technology and innovation, have proven business-models and are highly interested in US alternative growth opportunities such a business partnerships, collaborations, investments and acquisitions.
