Mr. Dimitris PapastergiouMinister of Digital Governance, stressed that Greece is turning into a data center through a series of technological infrastructure promotion moves and international interconnections.
As Mr Papastergiou said, Prime Minister Kyriakos Mitsotakis set up a team of experts on topics Artificial intelligence In order to contribute to the designation of policies and strategies for the artificial intelligence it continued with the completion of the EU strategy. Specific reference to the law of the Ministry of Digital Governance, which recently passed the House of Representatives, which had the basic trunk of the Regulation (EU) 2022/868. In this context, he notes that data offices have been provided in the Ministries for data collection to be all open and available (except sensitive data).
“He wants to make the processes but it makes no sense to talk about TN without data,” he said, stressing that the scanning of large volumes of material for data from public services can be in progress that can reach 1.2 billion pages.
“Greece is a train that starts slowly and will run quickly. All we have to do is face any problems so as not to make time, “he said. At the same time, he stressed that the EU has realized the challenges, issued a regulation that was incorporated, and stressed that a special secretariat was being created at the Ministry of TN and the data.
“We want to support the effort and to overcome the effort and call starting businesses to show them the infrastructure, the data,” it noted and reported at the beginning of the project for the signing of the ten -day period between the National Technology and Research Infrastructure Network (EYDIS SA – Ministry of the Ministry). “Hewlett Packard Enterprise” Convention on the construction of the supercomputer, Daedalus in the Lavrion Technological Park (ICT).
A. Stavropoulos: “Pharos shows the way”
The mobilization of the Greek ecosystem and experiences from the US have led to the focus of the debate with Mr. Andreas Stavropoulos, a Threshold Ventures partner who said that “what I have learned, living in Silicon Valley and experiencing the ecosystem of the area, is that the success is based on a success. The relationships and the best shown by people’s interaction contribute to the complete success of all, “said Stavropoulos. In addition, he said that “Pharos is showing the way for the future, as the goodwill and innovation that develop in society and are a driving force for growth.”
To note, he will reach the strengthening of sectors such as health, well -being, viability, language and culture, with the aim of creating a critical project around which new business innovative actions will develop. At the heart of this strategy lies the concept of cooperation and participation, with Pharos acting as a catalyst for the development of the Greek ecosystem and the attraction of new people and investors, as well as the Greek diaspora.

Already in the last 5 years it has developed 8 large supercomputers. Of these, he said, 3 are ranked in Top10 at the capacity level. “Already these supercomputers were the first to develop new infrastructure. We need infrastructure to develop artificial intelligence. And here comes the concept of Ai Factory that is not a computer centers or data centers but a whole ecosystem, “he said.
