Άτομα οποιουδήποτε υπόβαθρου, εθνικότητας, φύλου, φυλής κ.λπ. είναι ευπρόσδεκτα! Το υλικό είναι μοναδικό επειδή δεν έχει σχεδιαστεί για χρήση στην τάξη, αλλά για ατομικές συζητήσεις.

Κατά την άφιξή σας, θα σας ζητηθεί να καταχωρήσετε το όνομα και τα στοιχεία επικοινωνίας σας αποκλειστικά για σκοπούς επικοινωνίας και θα υπόκειστε στον Νόμο 125(I)/2018. Περιστασιακά τραβάμε φωτογραφίες και βίντεο κατά τη διάρκεια των Δωρεάν Μαθημάτων Αγγλικών τόσο για ψηφιακή όσο και για έντυπη διαφήμιση και μάρκετινγκ, όπως φυλλάδια και μέσα κοινωνικής δικτύωσης. Εάν δεν θέλετε να βρίσκεστε σε φωτογραφίες ή βίντεο, παρακαλούμε ενημερώστε ένα μέλος της ομάδας κατά την άφιξή σας. Παρόλο που θα προσπαθήσουμε να διατηρήσουμε τη συνοχή της μικρής ομάδας, ενδέχεται να αλλάξει ανάλογα με τη διαθεσιμότητα των καθηγητών.

Join the Nicosia Free English Classes group for an exciting language exchange and social networking event! This event is perfect for English as a Second Language (ESL) learners who want to improve their language skills while making new international friends. Welcome to Nicosia Free English Classes! Whether you want to improve your language skills for everyday communication or have specific purposes like exams or job interviews, we have you covered. We are a small group of Christians who offer free English classes to anyone wanting to practice, grow, and strengthen his or her English skills. We will meet at a free location each week to have the class, and we will use a workbook with conversation prompts from the books of Luke and Acts to aid our conversations. People of any background, nationality, gender, race, etc. are welcome! The materials are unique because they are not designed for classroom use, but instead for individual conversations. We will be using this material to prompt our conversations. We believe that a friendly relationship and the exchange of personal insights contribute significantly to improving language skills. When we talk about ideas that are important to us, we try harder to communicate clearly, and we make a greater effort to understand what the other person is saying. Here lies the success of the approach and resources and their continued value in language learning. This is NOT an accredited course. Teachers at Free English Classes are volunteer Christians. We are unable to guarantee that all teachers have teacher training qualifications. The lessons are intended for beginner (CEF levels A2 & A3) and intermediate (CEF level B1) level learners; and only aim to provide additional English language support - they are not meant to be a complete course of English teaching or to replace a course in a language school. Basic-level groups focus mainly on everyday spoken language. Intermediate groups use mostly expository texts which describe or explain things. We also include narrative texts from time to time. You will get the most out of the lessons if you come regularly, take home notes each week and revise what you have learnt. Upon arrival, you will be required to register your name and contact details solely for communication purposes, and will be subject to Law 125(I)/2018. We occasionally take photos and videos during Free English Classes for both digital and print publicity and marketing such as flyers and social media. If you do not want to be in any photos or videos, please let a team member know on arrival. Although we will attempt to keep the consistency of the small group, it may be subject to change depending on the availability of teachers. Free English Classes is not a certified English course. All teaching materials and worksheets are protected by copyright and must not be reproduced. Free English Classes will occur twice weekly. We hope that one or both days will fit in your schedule, but we understand that it may not work for everyone. If you would like to schedule a one-to-one meeting at a different time, please send us a message. We trust that your conversations will be rewarding, your life enriched, and your English conversation skills improved. Our greater desire is that sharing with your conversation partner will contribute to peace in your life and peace among people of all nations.

**Schedule** \- 18:30 Welcome drinks and pizza \- 19:15 Talk By Dr\. Alexander Apostolides \- 20:00 Networking **About the talk** **What is a regulatory sandbox, where are they in Europe and are they useful to you?** *By Dr. Alexander Apostolides* Regulation has to be increasingly taken into account when developing any technological solution. Concerns about data privacy and data security cut across all tech sectors, at the same time the packaging of products, including financial products, into SuperApps can lead to tech products coming under the purview of financial regulation. Since the creation of the Financial Conduct Authority (FCA) first regulatory sandbox in 2016, regulators have been deploying regulatory sandboxes to allow live testing of products and services. The success of the FCA sandbox let to its emulation. In Europe they are more than 14 regulatory sandboxes, and their popularity is expanding out of financial services: Europe has launched an pan-European Blockchain regulatory sandbox, while under the EU AI Act, Member States must establish or participate in at least one AI regulatory sandbox by 2 August 2026. In this talk I will present the key ways to engage regulators through innovation offices and regulatory sandboxes, and from a business perspective, discuss the pros and cons of engaging with a sandbox. **About the Speaker** Alexander is a researcher at the Cambridge Centre for Alternative Finance (CCAF) and the European University Cyprus (EUC). In his time in CCAF and EUC, Alexander has trained policymakers into how to respond to technology, and provided bespoke training on the issue of regulatory sandboxes and innovation offices. Alexander has thirteen years of experience in consultancy in a range of varied projects and EU funded projects, with specialty on the economy of Cyprus. He also has experience in policy, through his position in the National Economic Council of the President of Cyprus and as an economist at the Foreign and Commonwealth Office. Alexander is passionate for capacity building and University education, with experience in teaching a range of economics and entrepreneurship courses.
