Mediterranean Horizons 2026: Empowering Women in the Era of Digital and Green Transition

Hosted by BPW Cyprus in Nicosia, the 8th BPW Mediterranean Symposium gathers women leaders, professionals and advocates from across the region for two days of dialogue, connection and bold ideas — and an evening to celebrate it all. This year we turn toward the horizons that will define the decade: the digital and green transitions reshaping our economies. Together we ask how women can lead these shifts — not merely adapt to them — and how the Mediterranean can rise as a region where opportunity is shared and progress is sustainable. Expect candid keynotes, expert panels, practical workshops and the kind of cross-border networking that turns conversations into collaboration. Whether you join us from Cyprus or from abroad, you will leave with new partners, fresh thinking and a renewed sense of what is possible.
