Increasing the industrial naval activity in Greece

Naval Group’s objective is to further develop its footprint in Greece through partnerships with the Hellenic industry, research and academic partners. In this regard, Naval Group seeks to enlarge the Hellenic companies’ participation in its global supply chain, from which they will have the opportunity to participate in other programs and future international competitions
