The Greek StartUps are here- Open Coffee Club Greece

 

The HELLENIC Cashflow Club Association is publishing this article in order to express its support to the mission of the newly formed Open Coffee Club Greece (Greek StartUps Movement).  The Open Coffee Club Greece is part of the International Open Coffee Club and the mission of the Greek movement is the following:

• create a network of people with common interests to support relationships building and collaboration
• cultivate a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship
• spread new technologies with an emphasis on the web

Below is the Founding Declaration of the movement as it has been published in the movement’s blog under the post named The Greek StartUps are here

We are endorsing the declaration and we are glad to know that there are other people who have the same goals and objectives as we do. The community of the HELLENIC Cashflow Club Association is joining its forces with the newly formed movement towards our common goal.

Open Coffee Club Greece- FOUNDING DECLARATION

“The new Greek generation possesses abilities and knowledge, values and self-confidence, ideas and visions for their realization. We witness and celebrate the achievements of our days, the open information society, the collective character of the web, the global golden era of entrepreneurship. We consider ourselves bright, ambitious, with rosy prospects.

However, the latent period has been long enough. We are yet too mature to be just dreaming and – more importantly – realistically optimistic to start operating. From now on, we will view difficulties as challenges and the non-cultivated ground as source of opportunities. Let actions follow.

The document at hand represents the founding declaration of the Open Coffee Club Greece, the movement for (and by) Greek start-ups. By definition and nature, the movement is essentially characterized by openness and participation. Furthermore, we hope that it will act as support for, as well as trigger, all following actions:

* create a network of people with common interests to support relationship building and collaboration

* cultivate a culture of innovation and entrepreneurship

* spread new technologies with an emphasis on the web

The movement took form during the two open meetings which realized on the 7 June and 10 July under the initiative of the Confederation of Junior Enterprises Jade Hellas.

From today onwards, the OpenCoffee.gr blog will be the voice of the movement, as long as it will host all developments in the area of start-ups and the Greek web in general.

I, George Tziralis, support this effort.”
