Supporting Cyprus Innovation at Doers Summit 2026
As a long-standing supporter of Cyprus’ innovation ecosystem and a Gold Partner of Doers Summit 2026, our firm is proud to play a leading role in one of the region’s most influential gatherings for founders, investors, entrepreneurs and technology leaders. Taking place in Limassol on 21–22 May 2026, Doers Summit has evolved into a major international platform connecting the innovation communities of Europe, the Middle East and North Africa, bringing together thousands of participants shaping the future of business, technology and investment.
As part of this year’s programme, our firm will host a high-level panel discussion on the Arcade Stage:
Capital on Your Terms: Where Strategy Meets Finance
21 May 2026 | 10:50 a.m.
In a market environment where capital remains selective, valuations are under closer scrutiny, and founders face increasingly complex strategic choices, raising finance is no longer simply about securing funding—it is about securing the right capital, at the right time, on the right terms. Moderated by our Managing Partner, Elias Neocleous, this discussion will bring together distinguished international voices from entrepreneurship, venture investment, corporate innovation and complex transactions to explore how founders can approach fundraising with greater strategic clarity and long-term perspective.
Our distinguished panel includes:
- Dr. Oded Lieberman
A highly accomplished entrepreneur and investor with deep experience in scaling private and public companies through transformative growth milestones, including NASDAQ listings and major strategic exits. As former CEO of NeuroDerm, he played a central leadership role in the company’s acquisition by Mitsubishi Tanabe Pharma in a transaction valued at approximately USD 1.1 billion. - Alfredo Gomez Soria
Regional Director EMEA at Plug and Play Tech Center, one of the world’s most influential innovation platforms connecting startups, investors and major corporates. His perspective brings valuable insight into fundraising, international scaling and the evolution of high-growth ecosystems—particularly relevant as Cyprus continues to strengthen its technology ambitions. - Demetris Roti and Fabian Cabeza
Representing our firm’s corporate, finance and transactional capabilities, Demetris Roti, Partner, and Fabian Cabeza, Legal Counsel, will contribute practical legal and structuring insight drawn from extensive experience in cross-border transactions, capital markets, banking and finance.
Together, the panel will examine how founders can think more strategically about capital—balancing growth ambitions, investor expectations, governance considerations and long-term value creation.
But our contribution to Doers Summit extends beyond the stage. Throughout the event, our firm will also launch the first-ever Legal Advice Hub, a practical initiative offering attendees the opportunity to book short consultations with specialist lawyers across a range of areas relevant to startups, scaling businesses and innovation-driven ventures. This reflects a broader belief at our firm: that legal advisers should do more than interpret complexity—they should help ambitious businesses navigate it with confidence.
As Cyprus continues its evolution as a centre for innovation, entrepreneurship and international business, meaningful collaboration between founders, investors, advisers and institutions becomes increasingly important.
We are proud to support a platform that brings these communities together.
We look forward to an engaging and forward-looking discussion at Doers Summit 2026.
