Dimitrios Sofroniou
Dimitrios currently distributes his time among his Management, Technology & Economics studies in ETH Zurich and academic politics within the MTEc dept. and respective student organization.
He also keeps a keen eye on the situation in Europe and his homeland, Greece, political, economic or otherwise, is carried away by the strong entrepreneurial wind blowing over Zurich and is deeply concerned with questions of -un-sustainability and not only its implications for technology and the economy, but also its deep intertwinement with matters of education, human civilization and well-being.
His free time is entirely caught up in -fantasizing about- playing blues guitar, listening to- and studying music, following European basketball and reading, mostly historical novels and crime fiction.
