We are delighted to be attending this important and influential event in the beautiful surroundings of Napflio in Greece. The town takes its name from Nafplion, the son of Poseidon and Amymonis and remains a cultural centre thanks to its varied history, set against a backdrop of picturesque landscapes and crystal-clear waters.
