Pioneering Greeks – Pedro Olalla, Spanish Writer & Hellenist
Welcome to “Pioneering Greeks”, the new weekly column of GTP Headlines, which highlights the Greeks that stand out for their creative thinking in the business world. “Pioneering Greeks” is a collaboration between LoveGreece.com and Greek Travel Pages (GTP).
This week we introduce Pedro Olalla, a Spanish writer and Hellenist who contributes to the promotion of Greece through his creations. He has been acknowledged as an Ambassador of Hellenism for three decades already.
Based in Athens, Mr Olalla has an excellent command of the Greek language, Greek history and culture: “I believe it is important that we stay in Greece and take a stand against the current situation”, he says. “Not just to find the means to make ends meet in those difficult circumstances, but to be present and fight for substantial change.”
Inspired by the dynamism and creativity of the Greek entrepreneurial spirit, LoveGreece was founded in 2013 as an initiative to boost and promote the country’s image abroad by profiling talented and successful Greeks. With their ethos and vision, Greece’s entrepreneurs and professionals are an important aspect of the country worth highlighting to the world. LoveGreece is powered by Gina Mamidaki, the founder of the G & A Mamidakis Foundation.
