The HXG Expo is Europe’s leading cross-industry innovation fair, held annually at the Metropolitan Expo in Athens. Organized by Next Level EU Ltd. (NLE), the event brings together pioneering technologies, disruptive business models, and visionary minds from a wide range of sectors. More than a conventional trade fair, it is a catalyst for transformation—where ideas become tangible solutions and visions evolve into sustainable partnerships.

At its core, the HXG Expo is defined by a strong thematic focus on the key technological domains shaping our time. The exhibition explores developments in artificial intelligence, high-performance computing, and digital infrastructure, while also highlighting innovations in the financial sector, smart living concepts, sustainable energy solutions, advanced security technologies, and the dynamic start-up ecosystem. A central hub of innovation is the Start-up Hub, where emerging deep-tech companies with groundbreaking ideas engage directly with investors, mentors, and strategic partners.

Functioning as a vital platform for dialogue between business, science, policy, and investment communities, the HXG Expo connects established enterprises with emerging innovators. It provides space for meaningful exchange, impactful presentations, and sustainable growth. Showcased are market-ready technologies and practical innovations—from intelligent software systems to scalable infrastructure solutions for a more sustainable future.
