When I left Athens, Greece, over a decade ago startups were definitely not cool. In fact, there were no tech startups at all. Since then a lot has changed; Tech entrepreneurship has become a global thing and, inspired by cultural influences like The Social Network in addition to more serious factors, hackers all over the world want to build the next big thing.

Despite the Greek government-debt crisis and the high unemployment rate, tech-savvy Greek folks are following the global trends and forging ahead to create their own jobs by founding promising early stage ventures. Tech entrepreneurship has become a legitimate career option for many of Greece’s ambitious youth; perhaps they can contribute into turning the economy in a few years time?
