Congratulations, Prime Minister, Minister Georgiadis, and Minister Dimas.
You’ll remember, Prime Minister, in 2018 at the Thessaloniki International Fair (TIF), when we walked through the Start Up Pavilion there, there was a young man and you asked him what he wanted to do in the future. He said he wanted to go to MIT and then establish a start-up. There are so many young people like that in Greece. I think 2020 has been very exciting to see all of the growth and attention that the Greek start-up sector is getting in the United States. And I’m very excited about the prospect of being able to build further our U.S.-Greek partnership around this center because we have done the same thing in Chicago and Los Angeles and across the United States. So, this is a fantastic foundation and we’ve got some real momentum.
