It's a conference souvenir from the First European Symposium, Freshwater From The Sea, which was held in Athens 28 May to 2 June by the European Federation of Chemical Engineers.

That's all I've found, but maybe the federation can help http://www.efce.info/

I emailed one of the companies ( Germany) connected with the symposium mentioned on my vase and after quite a wait got a reply saying..."sorry couldn't find anything in our records" so I might try this site as well,
