Speaking at the Hellenic Startup Association November 30th
As you may be aware, Greece is somewhat… troubled over these past few months. Grabbing headlines is one thing, having announcements from your PM headlining BBC’s main news page while being a relatively tiny country is another.
Nevertheless, there’s an aspect of Greece that doesn’t get headlines. Behind the scenes of demonstrations and confrontations, there’s a very active web scene being created. Collaborative workspaces are multiplying, Google events are sold out, TEDxAthens is fast becoming a national institution while OpenCoffee -an NGO centered around the Tech community getting together - just had it’s 43rd meeting.
This is the Greece you don’t get to see in the nightly news.
A newcomer is the much needed Hellenic Startup Association and we’re extremely happy to be the keynote speakers presenting both gipht.me as well as our experiences so far on the startup road. The event is in Athens this Wednesday November 30th.
We’ll give a talk and present gipht.me for the first time in public.
Woohoo! (note Blur reference)
