A score of big-hitting shipowners gathered at the Piraeus Yacht Club to meet a top-level delegation from the United Arab Emirates (UAE) visiting Greece in pursuit of business opportunities.

Top names, including Nicholas Moundreas, George Procopiou, Adam Polemis, Nikolas Tsakos, Lou Kollakis, Paris Dragnis, John Coustas, Polys Haji-Ioannou and Paris Kassidokostas-Latsis, joined an owners-only reception hosted by Sultan Ahmed Al Jaber — the UAE's minister of state and chief executive of Abu Dhabi National Oil Co (Adnoc).
