The Delphi Economic Forum is a Greek nonprofit organization, primarily known for organizing and hosting its annual international conference on topics such as finance, politics, science and global affairs. Its headquarters are located in Athens, though the conferences take place in Delphi, near the archaeological site of Delphi, one of the most significant locations in ancient Greece, historically regarded by the Greeks as the center of the world. ^[2]

Annual Conference

Since its establishment in 2016 there has been a Delphi Economic Forum conference every year, with most lasting around four days and all hosted in the European Cultural Centre of Delphi, ^{[2] [3]} except the 2020 conference which had to be held virtually due to the Covid-19 pandemic and it was broadcast from the Zappeion Hall in Athens. ^[4] Each conference has up to 1000 speakers or more and they mostly consist of politicians, academics and journalists, with key people such as world leaders present in all of them. ^[5]

Other events

The Delphi Economic Forum is partnering with other organizations each year to organize conferences outside Greece, such as in Washington D.C., ^[6] Paris, ^[7] Toronto, ^[8] Brussels, ^[9] Bucharest ^[10] and elsewhere, while it is also hosting multiple digital events. ^[11]
