Fellow members of the Scale-up Greece meetup,

Our meetup is making a grand return, as well as our debut for 2024, with out most important event to date: We are hosting **Daniel Isenberg** in Athens on **Thursday March 7th, 2024, at 6pm.**

Dan is a renowned entrepreneur, investor and academic. Most importantly however is the person who actually pointed out the significance of scale-ups for an entrepreneurship ecosystem and rigorously studied the concept with scale-ups around the World. It is fair to say that he basically initiated what is now the Scale-Up movement.

ps1. Being that "Tsiknopempti" is celebrated on that Thursday, we shall of course offer Grilled Meat to the event participants, paired with fabulous wine of the [Kastriti Winery.](https://www.google.com/url?q=https://www.kastriti.com&sa=D&source=calendar&ust=1709902482429458&usg=AOvVaw0OyD12uDmSxiEAydm-jZDL)
