Dimitris Tsigos was key-note speaker at the Forum which was co-organized by SEV and Eurobank EFG

Dimitris Tsigos, CEO of the Virtual Trip Entrepreneurial Ecosystem and President of YES (European Confederation of Young Entrepreneurs) participated as a speaker at the Forum with subject “Modern Finance Tools & Framework for Development of New Innovative Companies” in the 76^th TIF, which was co-organized by SEV (Hellenic Federation of Enterprises) and Eurobank EFG.

During his speech, Dimitris Tsigos mentioned the young entrepreneurship as a main factor through which Greece could exit the crisis, with emphasis on the aspect of land, geo-economy, the symbolic and human capital. He rather spoke for the "distortion of words" which he said is “one of the worst forms of totalitarianism”.   

Dimitris Tsigos emphasized in the word “entrepreneurship” which he said "has been distorted in recent Greek history".  He analyzed that "instead of being the realization of creativity, the ability of everyone to change his/ her fate with creative teamwork, has become synonymous with nepotism, corruption and state-supported enterprises” and continued by saying that “if the world of entrepreneurship rid of these carcinomas, the entire Greek society- with the University at the forefront- will embrace it”.    

The Forum was held on Monday 12 September 2011 at 18:30, at “Korona” hall of Helexpo, organized by Eurobank EFG and SEV, in the 76th TIF which was focused on development and innovation.
