President's Quote

After centuries of ongoing depletion of the planet’s resources and resilience, the climate crisis emerges as the most pressing threat to humanity. Faced with this new reality, it is crucial for us to approach it with empathy and seriousness. We must actively seek and create synergies that will reverse the situation and reposition humanity on a path of survival first, and then development on sustainable terms.

The engineer’s role is undeniably crucial at this critical juncture. This is why TMEDE is taking the lead in fostering the necessary dialogue by hosting our inaugural international conference, “Redefining the Future Horizons: Planning the Sustainable Strategies of Tomorrow,” on June 13 and 14 at the TMEDE headquarters.

Our objective is to address the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead and establish a framework for a productive discussion by gathering insights from a group of experts in a high-level Open Discussion Forum on the climate crisis. The conference agenda will cover sustainable urban and regional development, critical infrastructure investments, new technologies, and strategies to efficiently utilize RRF and NSRF funds.

The new challenges confronting Greek banks, construction companies, and the nation’s engineers demand thoughtful reflection, innovative strategic planning, dynamism, and unwavering determination.

The conference, embracing the assumption of our shared responsibility, aims to illuminate these challenges, risks, and key issues in the context of Greek and global experience and updated scientific data.

Hosting distinguished speakers from Greece and the international scene, this initiative will dynamically contribute to the multifaceted information of all stakeholders regarding the significant changes taking place and the formation of a new joint strategic development plan for a sustainable tomorrow.

Your participation, with your valuable expertise, will be an honour for us and a significant contribution to the event.

Thank you,

Konstantinos Makedos

TMEDE President
