About the event
Papadopoulos Publishing and the ACG Institute of Global Affairs invite you to a discussion on the latest developments in global politics and economics on the occasion of the new book by Vasilis Kopsachilis, Geo-entrepreneurs.
The book serves as an introduction—both conceptual and historical—to geo-entrepreneurship, taking into account the current landscape of overlapping crises and future challenges. Its aim is to offer an alternative perspective, one that complements geopolitics and geo-economics, and to initiate a conversation on a new foundation.
The event is free and open to the public and the discussion will be conducted in Greek.
Parking is provided, upon availability.
