BEYOND is the premier international exhibition dedicated to digital technology and innovation in Southeastern Europe, the Mediterranean, and the Middle East. Since its inception in Thessaloniki in 2021, it has evolved into a high-level forum where groundbreaking technologies, visionary entrepreneurs, and research excellence converge. In 2025, BEYOND will take place in Athens, utilizing the city’s unique assets to broaden its reach and amplify its global impact.
The event serves as a dynamic platform for AI, virtual reality, quantum computing, and IoT, fostering collaboration between startups, scaleups, research institutions, and global tech leaders. At its core, BEYOND promotes knowledge-sharing, hands-on exploration, and business networking to accelerate innovation across industries.
This year’s theme delves into the dual reality of artificial intelligence—highlighting its transformative potential while confronting the real-world challenges of integration. With a focus on transparency and practical outcomes, BEYOND 2025 aims to spark meaningful dialogue on AI’s societal implications and ethical boundaries.
Startups and scaleups will play a central role, showcasing disruptive technologies ready for market adoption. Prominent research centers and universities will present cutting-edge studies, offering insights into the next wave of digital transformation.
Rotating annually between Athens (odd years) and Thessaloniki (even years), BEYOND strategically leverages the strengths of both cities to target diverse audiences and markets. Athens’ cosmopolitan reach complements Thessaloniki’s innovation ecosystem, enhancing the exhibition’s international positioning.
BEYOND EXPO 2025 is not just an event—it’s a visionary movement, steering the digital future and connecting the most brilliant minds of our era. With an ever-growing footprint, it continues to shape the 4th Industrial Revolution across borders, industries, and generations.
