Region Of Attica
Attica as an investment destination: Investments carried out through the Public Investment Program (PDE), the NSRF, other financial instruments, private investors, regional support, and development prospects. Attica is naturally at the heart of the country's development dynamics. The role of the Region as an accelerator and catalyst is crucial to ensuring that this development momentum is managed quickly and efficiently, with transparency, reliability, and a long-term vision. Attica as a model for major infrastructure projects, highlighting interventions and projects from the coastal front to the upgrading of ports (Piraeus, Rafina, and Lavrio) and projects included in the Regional Operational Program (PEP). The southern part of Attica is undergoing a true transformation, with public and private sector investments reshaping the region’s identity. Combined with other major infrastructure projects, such as port upgrades and the expansion of the international airport, Attica is evolving into a metropolitan hub of pan-European significance. Attica as a sustainable tourism destination, with a strategy to establish year-round tourism and promote thematic tourism forms. Attica is a key travel hub. Nearly 60% of international visitors to Greece pass through Attica on their way to other destinations. Our goal is to continuously showcase our unique lifestyle—including the coastal front, high-quality accommodation for all budgets, sailing in our islands, unparalleled gastronomy, and rich cultural heritage—as an incentive for visitors to experience Attica 365 days a year. Attica as a hub of culture and sports, with actions, projects, and initiatives to establish the region as a center for cultural and sporting events. Attica as a smart region, accelerating digital transformation, implementing smart specialization strategies, fostering innovation, and supporting entrepreneurship (especially SMEs).

The Region’s role is to act as a development accelerator, introducing and supporting smart specialization applications across all sectors of governance and the local economy.
