Why Side Events Matter?
When designing Panathēnea, we listened to founders, investors, and corporates who told us that while they love large festivals, the greatest business value lies in smaller, curated gatherings. That insight inspired the creation of Panathēnea’s Side Events as an integral part of the official program, to keep intimacy as Panathēnea grows, helping create deeper connections .
The Side Events allow attendees to meet during the main festival, reconnect in relevant afternoon sessions, and continue their conversations later at rooftop drinks or evening gatherings. It’s a seamless experience that keeps the human element at the heart of what we do.
Spread throughout Athens’ centre, Side Events also encourage exploration of the city.
