On Wednesday, February 4, 2026, Mr. Panagiotis Paschalakis, father of Grade 5 students, visited our School and spoke to members of the Entrepreneurship Club about the creation and operation of startup companies.

Mr. Paschalakis, a successful entrepreneur and owner of a software company listed on the Athens Stock Exchange, presented the fundamental principles behind a startup in a simple and engaging way. He discussed their raison d'être, their strong connection with creativity, imagination, and innovation, and how a simple idea can evolve into a dynamic business venture.

Particular emphasis was placed on the relationship between startups and the needs of society. Mr. Paschalakis explained that every innovative venture begins with identifying real-world problems and seeking solutions that improve and enrich people's everyday lives in modern society.

It was yet another highly engaging and constructive session for our School's Entrepreneurship Club, leaving our students inspired and full of new ideas for the future.
