Community Meeting and Autumn General Meeting
Practical Information
The meeting will take place at Lefkippos Tech Park, which is situated within the campus of NCSR Demokritos (Patr. Gregoriou E & 27 Neapoleos Str, 15341 Agia Paraskevi). You should reach the main gate at Demokritos and personnel will provide guidance so as to walk to Lefkippos.
The centre of Athens will be the best choice as there are no hotels close to the meeting venue. If you would like to choose an airbnb (or similar type of accommodation) you cool look into Agia Paraskevi or Cholargos areas. Also Psyrri or Syntagma areas (in the centre) are convenient, as the metro is close.
On Thursday 14 November, MyData Greece Hubs invites all participants of the community meeting to a special 10-course dinner. The registrations for the dinner should be done by 8 November. The dinner is self-paid and it costs 58 EUR. For more information and registration, click here.
If you want to combine the Community Meeting with a bit of tourism and are looking for the travel agency, the local organisers recommend Greciago. Please contact antonis@greciago.com for offers.#4 Consent Mechanisms
