With Cyprus ranking 4th globally among countries with populations under 2 million in the Global Startup Ecosystem Index, the island is quickly becoming a dynamic launchpad for startups. As momentum builds, integrating legal strategy into the foundation of a business is more crucial than ever.
On May 15, from 02:30 PM to 03:00 PM, the Big Picture Stage at Reflect Festival will host the panel "Legal Strategies for Startup Success," moderated by Elias Neocleous, Managing Partner at Elias Neocleous & Co LLC. This insightful discussion will address the most pressing legal challenges faced by startups and provide practical, forward-looking advice.
Rather than viewing legal requirements as constraints, the panel will reframe legal foresight as a powerful enabler of growth—one that can help startups future-proof their journey and build operational resilience from day one.
Panelists include:
- Andrea Kallis Parparinou, Partner at Elias Neocleous & Co LLC
- Theodoros Loukaides, Director General at the Cyprus Research & Innovation Foundation
- Konstantin Lomashuk, Co-founder & Managing Partner at cyber"Fund
- Sergei Ivanov, Founder at Alma
Attendees can expect a lively and practical conversation on regulatory frameworks, IP protection, cross-border structuring, and more—tailored specifically to the needs of early-stage ventures.
Join us at Reflect Festival to discover how legal strategy can be your startup's secret weapon for long-term success.
