He has a quite strong interest in issues related to technology and innovation at a European level.

During these hard times, the European Union proved to be the cornerstone of the continuous fight for human life. European Union principles and Pan-European culture can be widespread through EST projects and activities in Greek universities, and that is one of his ambitions.
