““What we’re missing, us Greeks, is a bit of practicality and a bit of poetry in our daily
lives, the two extremes that lead to the ultimate balance. We are prosaic and
fantasists at the same time. Prosaic in our fantasies and fantasists in our
businesses”
Karagatsis

Strategy General concept
Athens is a charming city with great history, great food, creative and open people, good weather and a diverse social nexus. Nevertheless, Athens is not the new Berlin, either Amsterdam
or Paris. In order to reinvent itself, Athens should and can “hack” crisis and redefine its assets, by using its citizens’
creativity and co-creating innovative structures and models.
“Live the city as a citizen”
