The Natureholic Smiler

They say ‘’ when you share the joy, it doubles’’. That’s why, I rarely part with my smile. Even when I get involved in adventures, such as getting lost in forests and mountains and the night finding me on hiking in nature, yes indeed, the smile is there even if it has just been "frozen by my fear!

Είναι κάτοχος μεταπτυχιακού τίτλου νομικών σπουδών με ειδίκευση στο Ευρωπαϊκό Δίκαιο από το Πανεπιστήμιο του Leuven (KUL) στο Βέλγιο.

Από τα πρώτα του βήματα, έχοντας πρώτα συγκεντρώσει πολύτιμη εμπειρία ήδη ως ασκούμενος δικηγόρος απασχολούμενος σε δικηγορικές εταιρείες με τομέα ενασχόλησης αστικές και ποινικές υποθέσεις, συνειδητοποίησε τον προσανατολισμό του προς τον τομέα των επιχειρήσεων.

Αφού ολοκλήρωσε τις μεταπτυχιακές του σπουδές, το 2010, συνεργάστηκε με τη DPG Group of Companies ως in – house νομικός σύμβουλος.

Frosso’s journey has equipped her with a unique blend of creativity, leadership, empathy, and adaptability. She is committed to leveraging her experiences to make meaningful contributions in both professional and humanitarian endeavors, striving to create positive change wherever she goes. “Short: After years of hard work and the company of two beloved cats, I’ve learned that success is not just about reaching the destination, but embracing the journey. With each step, we’ve chased dreams, overcome obstacles, and left our mark on the world. Here’s to many more adventures ahead!”

Lefteris is inspired by individuals with vision and is guided by this. Creating and collaborating with others in an environment of trust constitutes the ideal collaborative setting for him.

He believes in the phrase “Business is People,” and his goal is to establish meaningful partnerships aimed at strengthening the Greek market in the field of human resources.

Having served as president of the first student entrepreneurship organization in Greece, ThinkBiz, along with a team of over 48 individuals, he has organized more than 15 events and projects related to entrepreneurship, impacting over 12,000 people. Among these is the largest entrepreneurship multi-conference in Greece organized by young people for young people, ThinkBiz Academy 2023.

He is in his final year of studies in the Department of Accounting and Finance at the Athens University of Economics and Business. He has worked in sales and conference organization for C-level HR executives.

Konstantinos Kintzios has 15 years of experience in the fields of Business Development, Sales, Marketing and Communications, from outstanding organizations with which he was honored to collaborate, including the Embassy of the United States in Athens, Adel/Saatchi & Saatchi, Hellas Online, and the United States Olympic Committee. From 2011-2016, he worked at Boussias Communications, where he developed effective new concepts into successful projects, while substantially increasing revenue and profitability by 400% in 6 years. As a result, he was asked to step into the driver’s seat as Commercial Relationship Manager.

Konstantinos is the Deputy Director at ReGeneration, the largest and most multi-stakeholder up/re-skilling and employment program in the region; he is actively involved in reducing Greece’s “brain-drain”, developing youth employability, and bridging the gap between talented young graduates and companies wanting to invest in the next generation. He is passionate about ReGeneration’s mission, through which he is able to give back to society and empower young graduates, giving them the chance to stand out and shine in Greece!

He sits on the Employment Committee at the American-Hellenic Chamber of Commerce, is a Board Member at Bloode (a non-profit that aims to increase the number of blood donors in Greece), and is an Advisory Committee Member at Job-Pairs (a mentoring and professional development program, that matches recent graduates with business executives).

Konstantinos completed his Marketing degree from Deree – The American College of Greece, where he also received his MBA with high distinction. At Deree, he was elected President of the Student Union, and Student Representative for 3 different Academic Committees. Always in search of opportunities for personal development, he has become accredited with the Diploma in Executive Coaching & Organizational Development from IMPACT (the first course worldwide to receive Accreditation from the Association for Coaching).

Passionate about building sustainable partnerships, designing innovative initiatives, and advocating for lifelong learning, Konstantinos raises awareness and stimulates engagement through social media “dialogues” via LinkedIn, Facebook and Twitter. He enjoys learning from others and sharing his insight, and lives by Peter Schultz’s advice “hire character, train skills”.

Panagiotis co-founded ReGeneration, the largest education and employment impact program for young graduates in Greece, with a vision to democratize access to education and opportunity. He is currently serving as the first Director of Partnerships at the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence (HAI). He previously served as a Board Member as well as Strategy, Business Development, and Real Estate Director of Agora Trading (now “Amarla Retail”), a cross-border fashion, retail, and consumer goods operating group.

Panagiotis holds an LLB from Democritus University Law School, an LLM from University of Pennsylvania Law School, and an MSx from Stanford Business School, where he was granted the Rochat Fellowship. Panagiotis also sat on the Global Shapers Advisory Council on Partnerships of the World Economic Forum.

Coordinating the varied day-to-day program procedures and requirements at ReGeneration, Alexandra is responsible for ensuring that the initiative’s operations run smoothly. She serves as the link between the program’s co-founder and team members. 

With several years of business administration experience in the IT sector, Alexandra recently decided to apply her skills to support a human-centered effort, bringing to ReGeneration necessary know-how. Her course was inspired by her postgraduate studies in Service Management for Executives at the Athens University of Economics and Business.

Organizing a trip is her favorite pastime, especially if it involves practicing Pilates, alone, or with friends!

Alexandra was born in Athens in 1994, but her heart always belongs to the place where her parents were born and raised, Karpenissi. That’s why you’ll often find her spending her time there.

She has completed her bachelor’s degree in International and European Studies at the University of Piraeus and holds a master’s degree in Mediterranean Studies from the University of Peloponnese. Her love for learning and the need to highlight aspects of our world that are often overlooked, led her to decide to pursue a Ph.D. in Political Science and International Relations in the Middle East, which she completed in November 2023.

Throughout her academic journey, she has been a member of university research centers and academic committees. Additionally, she has participated in numerous voluntary organizations with the aim of contributing to positive change in the world around her every day.

With over 5 years of experience in Project Management, Communication, and Strategic Initiatives development, she holds the position of Partnerships and Strategic Initiatives Manager at ReGeneration. Her goal is to work daily to strengthen the impact of the program either through the creation of new initiatives or through more effective management of existing program partnerships.

In her free time, she enjoys reading books, doing Pilates, solving puzzles, playing board games, and spending time in nature.
