“Throughout the years, the Chamber’s events have attracted notable individuals both from home and abroad, highlighting the broad recognition it enjoys,” CSC said in a press release. “At the same time, through the number of charity events it will host this year, it will strengthen even more its social contribution to Cyprus society.”

This year’s activities include its annual high level business functions, addressed at executives of the Cyprus shipping industry, its member companies as well as government and political party officials, two blood donation drives, a Charity Beach Volley Tournament, a special event for the “Adopt a Ship” Programme, culminating with a Shipping Charity Marathon along with various other social gatherings.

The Chamber’s Refreshed Logo, a symbol of its journey and growth, was also presented during the Press Conference.

On Friday 26 January 2024, the Chamber held its first business event for 2024, an “Official Dinner” attended by the President of the Republic of Cyprus and various other of high-level Government Officials, Political Parties, Business associates and Shipping Industry professionals.
