We are thrilled to announce that Founder & CEO of Stirixia and Adam Smith Business School alumnus, Alex Athanassoulas (MBA 1992), is the new President of the Sustainable Building Council in Greece (SBC Greece). SBC GREECE is the official member of World Green Building Council (WGBC), which has a network of over 100 national Green Building Councils around the globe and is the largest and most influential organisation for sustainability in the built environment.

Alex said: "It is a great honour for me to be elected as the leader of an astonishing organisation with such a significant purpose. Not only is it our duty to inform, support and promote sustainability in Greece, but it is important for everyone to understand the great role it plays in the well-being of society, people and businesses".

Furthermore, Alex noted that we are amid a 'Sustainability Revolution'. The opportunities for sustainable development are increasing at an accelerated pace, as new programs, new funding, and new solutions are created constantly. With prosperity as our guiding light, we are seizing this opportunity and creating meaningful change, together.

Alex said: "I would like to thank the previous Board of Directors for its significant efforts until now. They are an exceptional team that managed to keep SBC Greece at the forefront of sustainability, both in Greece and abroad, during the great challenges of our times. I am confident that we will continue contributing to the high quality of the initiatives of SBC Greece and evolve it to provide true prosperity to all".

Congratulations Alex - we wish you all the best in your new role.
