KEYNOTE SPEAKER AT GBATA INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE IN ATHENS
CEO & Co-Founder of Ideoli Group to Share Global Expansion, Leadership, Manufacturing, and International Growth Strategies at the 26th Annual GBATA Conference
I’m honored to officially announce that I will be joining the 26th Annual International Conference hosted by the Global Business and Technology Association as a keynote speaker in Athens, Greece this July.
The conference, taking place from July 14–17, 2026 at the Titania Hotel, brings together business leaders, entrepreneurs, academics, innovators, and global thinkers from around the world to discuss the future of international business, technology, leadership, and innovation.
As the CEO & Co-Founder of Ideoli Group, I look forward to sharing our journey of building a multinational business operating across 30+ countries — from custom manufacturing and global distribution to strategic partnerships, logistics, scaling operations, and navigating growth in today’s rapidly changing global economy.
Over the last decade, Ideoli Group has evolved from a custom lighting manufacturer into a full-scale global lighting solutions provider, supporting internationally recognized brands including Tesla, Microsoft, Aston Martin, Mandarin Oriental, Hilton, and many others. Through international expansion, operational execution, and long-term partnerships, we’ve learned firsthand what it takes to scale across borders while maintaining quality, culture, and consistency.
My keynote presentation will focus on:
Building a global company from the ground up
Expanding into international markets
Managing manufacturing and logistics at scale
The power of strategic partnerships
Leadership through uncertainty and rapid growth
Lessons learned operating across multiple countries and cultures
The future of global business and innovation
Athens is a city deeply connected to history, philosophy, entrepreneurship, and innovation, making it an incredible place for leaders from around the world to gather and exchange ideas.
A special thank you to GBATA, Hellenic American University, and @ptsolis for the opportunity and support.
I’m excited to connect with inspiring individuals from around the world and contribute to conversations shaping the future of business and technology.
