It was an evening of networking and inspiration. Dimitris Papalexopoulos, Chairman of TITAN Cement Group, discussed their efforts at sustainability. TITAN, founded in Greece in 1902, is now a €1.6 billion producer of cement and building materials, employing over 5,500 people. Mr. Papalexopoulos was in a fireside chat with George Serafeim, professor at Harvard Business School specializing in climate and sustainability.

The program included insights from Kristen Craft, Vice President at Fidelity Private Shares, our host; and Roula Bachtalia from Eurobank, our sponsor.

The program concluded with a discussion, moderated by Christina Karapataki from Breakthrough Energy with five sustainability entrepreneurs who have operations in Greece: Inder Mukhopadhyay, Alicia Bots; Nicholas Myers, Phoenix Tailings; Marios Alexandrou, EnergyIntel; Constantinos Loizou, Embio Diagnostics Ltd; Vasilis Stenos, Solmeyea.

We closed with drinks and networking to bring our community together and help make valuable connections for the startups.
