Panteion University of Social and Political Sciences, represented by the Rector, Professor Christina Koulouris and 24 MEDIA, represented by the CEO, Mrs. Maria Grapsa, proceeded to a Memorandum of Cooperation, with the aim of undertaking and promoting research, educational activities of common interest in the field of Digital Publishing, digital advertising, and journalism, and more broadly the theoretical and practical investigation of the phenomenon of communication and the operation of the Mass Media.
The long-term and excellent collaboration between 24 MEDIA and the Advertising and Public Relations Laboratory of the Department of Communication, Media and Culture, under Associate Professor Betty Tsakarestou, Head of the Laboratory, has highlighted the value and dynamics of co-creation, producing excellent results in the digital production of commercial content and advertising.
Panteion University and 24 MEDIA look forward to working together to deepen innovative ideas that will transform existing digital products or develop new innovative digital applications, enhance University extroversion and set a positive example of mutual respect.
The Memorandum of Cooperation was digitally signed in a very warm atmosphere by the Rector of Panteion University, Professor Christina Koulouris and the CEO of 24 MEDIA, Mrs. Maria Grapsa.
The Rector of Panteion University, Professor Christina Koulouris stated:
"It is a great pleasure for Panteion University and for me personally the signing of the Memorandum of Cooperation with 24MEDIA because first of all it validates a long and successful collaboration that our University already has (through the Advertising and Public Relations Laboratory of the Department of Communication, Media and Politics) with the company and secondly, because it is an act of extroversion that is an integral part of the policy of the new rectory for the successful professional course of the graduates of Panteion. I also consider it particularly important that the CEO of the company is Ms. Grapsa, who is our graduate and therefore is a shining example of the successful career of Panteion graduates. I look forward to a long and fruitful cooperation and I will always be at the disposal of all those who support the actions of our cooperation.”
The CEO of 24 MEDIA, Mrs. Maria Grapsa, stated:
"It is our honor and pleasure to officially ratify our long-standing good cooperation with Panteion University (through the Advertising and Public Relations Laboratory of the Department of Media Communication and Culture) setting new goals for expanding cooperation with other departments of the University. Our main concern is to act as assistants in the extroversion policy of the Rector's Office and to be a healthy pillar of interaction between academia and the market in matters of communication, the cultivation of skills and know-how through the guidance of students by experienced executives and professionals in a wide range of specialties, with the aim of their successful integration into the labor market”.
The digital signing ceremony of the Memorandum of Understanding was attended by the Vice Rector for International Relations and Cooperation, Associate Professor Marianna Psylla, the Associate Professor Betty Tsakarestou, and from 24 MEDIA Mr. Manos Michalos, COO, Mrs. Deppie Papazoglou, Senior Commercial Director and Mr. Grigoris Batis, Marketing Director.
