A wonderful celebration of education, creativity and European cooperation!
Warm thanks to the Arsakeio School Psychiko for hosting an Austrian delegation of school principals and experts from the Austrian Ministry for Education interested in establishing school exchanges on 19-20 October through the Erasmus+ Job Shadowing programme.
From interactive lessons and scientific experiments to music, student debates and environmental activities, the two days showcased how education can inspire young people to embrace diversity and shape a better future.
I look forward to seeing Greek-Austrian educational cooperation 🇬🇷🤝🇦🇹 continue to flourish.

On 1 October 2026, I had the pleasure of visiting Zagora, Pelion, for the presentation of Wolfgang Amadé Mozart’s original Costa Violin 🎻, organised by Mozarteum Hellas in cooperation with the International Mozarteum Foundation in Salzburg.
Crafted in 1764, the Costa Violin represents a precious piece of European musical heritage. Hearing Mozart’s music performed on this remarkable instrument by renowned violinist Nina Patrikidou and young Yiannis Iatrou at the historic Iatrou Tower was a truly special experience.
The warm hospitality of Zagora and its rich cultural heritage made this a memorable visit, celebrating Mozart’s legacy and the enduring friendship between Austria and Greece.
My sincere thanks to Mozarteum Hellas, the International Mozarteum Foundation, the Municipality of Zagora–Mouresi and everyone who made this exceptional event possible.

Austrian expertise at ITC 2026 in Athens

It was a great pleasure to see five Austrian companies showcase their innovative technologies and solutions at ITC 2026 in Athens, one of Greece’s leading events for infrastructure, construction, transport and mobility.
With 2,000 participants, 90 speakers and 93 sponsors, the event offered an excellent platform for exchanging ideas, building new connections and exploring business opportunities.
I was delighted to see the strong interest in Austrian expertise and innovation.
With major investments in rail, roads and urban mobility, Greece offers promising opportunities — and I am confident that Austria and Greece can achieve even more together.
A big thank you to the participating companies, Christoph Sturm, Commercial Counsellor of the Austrian Embassy in Athens & Head of Advantage Austria Athens as well as his team for this successful presence!
