The Athina I. Martinou Foundation and the French Institute of Greece have signed a Memorandum of Understanding, strengthening their collaboration in the fields of marine ecosystem protection, the sustainable use of marine resources, as well as innovation and the blue economy. This partnership will be implemented through the organization of educational programmes, workshops, and awareness-raising initiatives.
The collaboration between the Athina I. Martinou Foundation and the French Institute of Greece was initiated through the “Artificial Intelligence and Ocean” hackathon, held during the Science Festival 2025, dedicated to the ocean. On this occasion, both institutions highlighted their support for innovation driven by young students and researchers in the fields of artificial intelligence and marine sciences.
This memorandum between the two organizations represents yet another example of the importance of marine issues in the relations between Greece and France.
