Capacitor Partners announces the inaugural Future Forum 2026, taking place on Tuesday, 17 November 2026, marking the launch of a new annual platform for strategic dialogue on the forces shaping the future of business and the economy.
Under the central theme “How AI Reshapes & Moves Markets”, this year’s forum will explore the transformative role of Artificial Intelligence (AI), examining how it is redefining business competitiveness, creating new opportunities for economic growth and influencing strategic decision-making.
Future Forum is an invitation-only event bringing together clients and partners of Capacitor Partners, alongside representatives from the public sector. The initiative aims to establish a platform for meaningful dialogue and the exchange of perspectives on the challenges and opportunities emerging in an increasingly dynamic business environment.
The keynote address will be delivered by Michael Damianos, Minister of Energy, Commerce and Industry.
The programme will feature three thematic fireside chats, bringing together distinguished leaders from across different sectors of the economy.
Energy & Infrastructure: The discussion will explore the role of technology in shaping the future of energy and infrastructure, featuring Natasa Pilides (eWise Cyprus) and Tess Adamou (EEDN). The session will be moderated by Alexandros Karagiannis (Capacitor Partners).
Retail & Markets: Focusing on developments in retail, evolving consumer trends and emerging business models, the discussion will feature Andreas Demetriou Pompatzis (AlphaMega), Christina Kokkalou (IMR/University of Nicosia) and Ioannis Nakis (Wolt Cyprus). The session will be moderated by Anthi Pashi (Partners Connected Communications).
New Economy: The discussion will examine new opportunities for growth driven by Artificial Intelligence and emerging technologies, featuring Valentinos Polykarpou (Wargaming Group and TechIsland), Christina Orphanidou (Columbia Group) and Tasos Zachos (Fortune Greece). The session will be moderated by Artemis Pnevmatikou (TechIsland).
Commenting on the vision and objectives behind the initiative, Michael Tyrimos, CEO of Capacitor Partners, stated:
“Every industry eventually reaches a point where the assumptions that have underpinned its growth begin to change. Artificial Intelligence has accelerated this transition, affecting virtually every sector of the economy almost simultaneously.
Future Forum was created to provide a platform for meaningful and candid dialogue, where leaders at the forefront of these changes can share their experiences, challenges and strategic decisions. Through Capacitor Partners’ network of relationships, we aim to bring together individuals with diverse perspectives and expertise, encouraging conversations that offer fresh insights into the future of businesses, markets and the wider economy.”
