Kickstarting Greece

StartUp Greece is a digital information and networking space aimed at giving way to a new generation of entrepreneurs in Greece, bringing together people and ideas and changing the country's perception of doing business and entrepreneurship.

StartUp Greece combines an online entrepreneurship community with a knowledge and information database specialized in the field of doing business.

The knowledge and information database includes:

- Public or private funding initiatives so that all available resources can be brought together on one website and accessed by entrepreneurs or anyone interested in starting a business
- Procedures, laws and regulations with a view to creating a coherent database, a guide for entrepreneurs, existing or aspiring
- Events on entrepreneurship, innovation, as well as mentoring events since face-to-face contact and networking remain invaluable for inspiration and motivation
- “How to” articles on the small and bigger details which define a business and can get it off the ground (e.g. basic marketing principles for your new business)
- Entrepreneurship and innovation competitions so that young people, be they entrepreneurs or not, have a fixed information point and the opportunity to put their talents and expertise into good use
- Useful data and trends for smarter business decisions
- Success & failure stories so as to highlight successful business outcomes and because failure needs to be promoted as a valuable experience and a necessary step toward success
