Mr. Eliades also showcased Greece’s emerging startup ecosystem, emphasizing the availability of highly talented, multilingual, and academically trained human resources. He underscored the qualitative elements of equality, diversity, multiculturalism, and inclusion promoted by investments, especially in the technological sector.
