In 1996 he was elected for the first time as a member of the Union of Greek Shipowners and from 2003 to 2012 he held the position of treasurer of the Union. He was a representative of the Union of Greek Shipowners at the UNCTAD [United Nations Conference on Trade and Development].

He also served as a member of the National Library of Greece’s Executive Council from March to December 2013.

In 2015 he accepted an award from the Academy of Athens for the exemplary operation of the Eugenides Foundation Planetarium, one of the largest and best-equipped digital planetaria in the world. In 2016 the Eugenides Foundation received the Achievement in Education and Training award from the Greek Shipping Awards 2016, organized by Lloyd’s List, for its contribution to maritime training.

Since May 2018 Leonidas Dimitriades-Eugenides has assumed the duties of Maritime Ambassador of the IMO [International Maritime Organization], representing Greece in this young institution, which aims to attract young people to the maritime profession and to underline the contribution of the IMO in the effort to improve the image of the shipping industry, ship and maritime safety and the protection of the marine environment.
