Komvos was created to contribute to the development of the country. It is not another think tank. After all, there are enough and good ones in Greece. Komvos is a think-act, because it undertakes initiatives for the implementation of actions that, taking advantage of the dynamic of Hellenism, will have immediate effect to Greek society, throughout the improvement of the everyday life of Greeks, through the improvement of the economic, cultural, and scientific level.
The Vice-President of Komvos, Professor Michalis Haliassos, also president of the organizational committee of the Conference, is setting the framework of the work context of Komvos’ first work Conference through his introduction. The President of Komvos presented the positions and objectives of the organisation.
Τhe first work conference sets the stage for a series of actions:
The first one is the census of the Greek human potential abroad in order to create a network which can be mobilized to serve the -well meaning- interests of Hellenism globally.
The second one concerns an initiative, which we call “ENNOIA”, and its purpose is to strengthen Greek households in taking their financial decisions.
The third action consists of the exploitation of the perspectives of a synergy between Health-Biotechnology and Economy with the aim of promoting the interaction in these fields.
Haris Antoniou, treasurer of the Board of Directors of Komvos, closed the conference with a brief introduction to the planned actions of Komvos regarding Shipping.
The event was held thanks to the support of Pireaus Bank, as the bank was the Mega Sponsor of the event, Skai TV (communications sponsor) and National Bank (Sponsor).
