Two Greek women included in ’30 Under 30′ Forbes list

·

In this year’s European Forbes “30 Under 30” list, two exceptional Greek women have managed to stand out for their successful paths in two completely different fields.

According to forbesgreece, Antonia Agapi Pontiki, excelling in the field of research, managed to stand out in the category of “Science – Healthcare”, while Greek Cypriot British Elena Michael was included in the category of “Social Impact”, for her pioneering work in the organization “#NotYourPorn”.

#NotYourPorn is an organization that advocates for the protection of individuals (adults, minors, and sex workers) from sexual abuse based on imagery (social media, the internet, etc.), offering assistance and support to victims.Αρχή φόρμας

These two exceptional women are a source of inspiration and a reminder that dedication, hard work, and vision for a better society and future can lead to success and recognition on a global scale.

Their efforts also serve as a recognition of the value and potential of women in the fields of entrepreneurship and social action.

It is worth noting that in this year’s European list of 300 Europeans under 30 distinguished by Forbes, Greek Cypriot Jack Zambakides was also included. He was recognized in the “Retail” category for the successful jewelry company “D. Louise”, based in London, which he co-founded with Olivia Jenkins.
