"Get out of these doors, you've studied enough. The world is now waiting for you. So get a spoon." Our very own Co-Founder and Executive Director Emilios Markou had the honor of addressing the 2024 graduating class at the University of Nicosia on a quite emotional evening! Reflecting on his journey from a graduate to a leader in the insurance industry, Emilios shared invaluable lessons on embracing the marathon of life, navigating its highs and lows, making bold decisions and nurturing relationships, "...so when you look back, 20-30 years from now, it's gonna be something special." Congratulations to the class of 2024, we can't wait to see all the things you'll achieve 🎉 #HereForGood #UNIC #UniversityofNicosia

A season finale can be quite overwhelming! Last September we kicked-off our HD Burger Series, so as to get together more often, over burgers and drinks. Thousands of grilled patties (but who's counting?😉) and 13 events later, the final HD Burger Series episode of the season took place at our Nicosia offices last week 🌴🍔 As we head into a well-deserved vacation, we couldn't have asked for a more perfect night, especially with the delightful company of the The University of Manchester alumni. With high spirits and a brief respite ahead, we're already cooking up exciting new ideas for the upcoming season 🎉 #HereForFood #HereForGood

Nobody wants summer to end, but we are definitely looking forward to this fall's 18th NextGen Payments & RegTech Forum on 10-11 October 2024, at the Marriott Hotel, Athens, Greece! That's when our Co-Founder and Executive Director, Emilios Markou, will share the story behind not one, but two of Hellas Direct's payment innovations that said "farewell" to the need of credit cards: • wallet , our financing solution helping drivers split significant vehicle expenses (road tax, repairs, tires) into manageable payments • FlexiPay, our one-of-a-kind flexible payment solution, allowing drivers to pay for their insurance in debit card instalments both without the need for a credit card 🌟 Where? In “Growth and Concerns of Buy Now, Pay Later (BNPL)” panel discussion, focusing - among others - on: » Growing use of BNPL as a financial solution » Increasing call for regulatory focus to ensure consumer protection and responsible usage » Effective partnerships with BNPL providers Save the date and join here: https://bit.ly/47NmLO4 #HereForGood #Fintech #Payments #Regtech #NextGen
