Paphos Chamber of Commerce board elected without voting

The Paphos Chamber of Commerce and Industry (EVE Paphos) has announced that its new Board of Directors will be appointed without an election. The decision follows the withdrawal of four candidates, leaving exactly 20 nominees for the 20 available positions on the board.

According to the Director of EVE Paphos, Marinos Stylianou, this outcome is based on the application of Article 29(b) of the Chamber's statutes. Consequently, all remaining 20 candidates have been declared members of the new Board of Directors, provided all statutory requirements are met. The election process, which was originally scheduled for October 27, 2026, has been officially cancelled.

Despite the cancellation of the vote, the General Assembly of the outgoing Board of Directors will proceed as planned today at the 'ATTIKON' Cultural Center in Paphos. The closed session is set for 16:30, followed by the official session at 17:30, which will be attended by Government Spokesman Constantinos Letymbiotis. The election of the Chamber’s new leadership is expected to take place in early November.
