Anastasios Schinas, Founder & CEO of Shift Works, joined representatives of GPA Investment Group at a dinner hosted by the Rotary Club of Glyfada, featuring Professor Angelos Syrigos as guest speaker.
The event brought together business leaders, entrepreneurs and professionals for an evening of discussion around some of the geopolitical developments shaping Greece and the wider Eastern Mediterranean.
Professor Angelos Syrigos, Member of the Hellenic Parliament for Athens and Professor of International Law and Foreign Policy at Panteion University, led a discussion focused on regional geopolitics, Greek-Turkish relations and the evolving strategic balance in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Business leadership beyond technology
For Shift Works, understanding the wider environment in which businesses operate is an important part of strategic leadership.
Technology and Artificial Intelligence are transforming organisations rapidly, but business decisions are never made in isolation. Geopolitical developments, regulation, economic conditions, international relations and changes in global markets can all influence how organisations invest, operate and plan for the future.
The discussion provided an opportunity to consider these forces from a broader strategic perspective and exchange views with members of the Greek business community.
Connecting transformation with the wider business environment
Anastasios Schinas attended the event alongside Anastasios Spanidis and Alexios V. Liagkas, representing the wider GPA Investment Group ecosystem, of which Shift Works is a member.
Shift Works’ participation reflects its broader approach to business transformation: combining technology and AI with an understanding of people, organisations, markets and the external forces influencing business decisions.
As companies navigate increasingly interconnected markets, effective transformation requires more than adopting new technologies. It requires leaders who can understand change, evaluate its implications and translate it into practical business decisions.
Part of the GPA Investment Group ecosystem
Shift Works operates within the GPA Investment Group ecosystem, connecting its work in AI transformation, business process improvement and AI training with a wider network of entrepreneurship, investment, expertise and strategic partnerships.
Participation in events such as the Rotary Club of Glyfada dinner creates opportunities for dialogue beyond the technology sector and strengthens the connection between business transformation and the wider economic and institutional environment.
At Shift Works, we believe that meaningful transformation starts with understanding the business — and the world in which that business operates.
Practical thinking on AI, business transformation and how organisations can turn technology into measurable value.
