IOANNIDES DEMETRIOU LLC are the proud exclusive member of the Energy Law Group for Cyprus for almost 20 years. The Energy Law Group (ELG) is the top tier legal network and is the premier legal network in the field of Energy Law, which is one of the fields in which we have recognised expertise. We were very proud and grateful to have been given the opportunity to co-host ELG’s conference on the Eastern Mediterranean Energy market in Athens on the 16th and 17th October 2026 along with our co-hosts, the Greek ELG member Lambadarios Law Firm. We thank ELG for entrusting us with this task and to our co-hosts for their cooperation, their friendship and the very best of Greek φιλοξενία!!!
The conference brought together thought leaders in the field of energy from both Cyprus and Greece. For our part we invited Professor Prof. Andreas Poullikkas, former Chairman of CERA and currently a Professor of Energy Systems and Vice Rector for Development, Internationalization and Partnerships at Frederick University who delivered a reasoned and informed presentation upon the “Challenges and Opportunities faced by the Eastern Mediterranean Energy Market” and Natasa Pilides, former Minister of Energy Commerce and Industry and General Manager of eWise Cyprus – Esso Branded Supplier, who spoke with insight on the subject of “The European Energy ‘Trilema’: The Trade offs shaping the European Energy Landscape”. Both presentations apart from being rich in content were expertly presented and inspired lively discussion amongst the delegates. We are grateful to them for their contribution and indeed for the equally excellent contributions of the remaining speakers and panel members from Greece which contributed to a superb conference.
Ioannides Demetriou LLC were represented at the conference by Managing Director Andrew Demetriou and Directors Christina Ioannidou, Theo Demetriou and Zoe Christou as well as Paul Koronis, manager of our associated company Nobel Trust, who is based in Athens.
