23/10/2019

The 1st #JobDays OEE/TAK took place with great success, on October 18 and 19 at the Galaxy Hotel. The main purpose of the two-day event was to inform, empower and network young people who are looking for work or want to take their next professional step. The goal of OEE/TAK is this effort to establish itself as an institution for the labor market and youth entrepreneurship in Crete.

The 1st #JobDays is a co-organization of OEE/TAK, the organization that represents over 3,500 economists in eastern Crete, with the platform skywalker.gr, which is active in the field of Human Resources and the Region of Crete.

The CEO of Proactive, Mr. Nikos Bounakis, participated in the panel discussion on "Youth Entrepreneurship _ Business opportunities in the Agri-Food industry" with the title of presentation: "From Subsidized to Entrepreneurial Agriculture. Conditions for the development of entrepreneurship in the Agri-Food sector", where after an extensive presentation of the indicators of the Greek agricultural economy, he referred to the issue of the modernization of the Greek agri-food sector, focusing also on the urgency of the development of agricultural entrepreneurship.

Mr. Bounakis added, among other things, that the Greek agricultural economy needs a strategic redesign based on investing in Greek products with surplus value, looking at the Greek table grape as a case study. Presenting empirical and statistical data on table grape production through a comparative analysis at national, European and global level, Mr. Bounakis proposed investing in the production and promotion of table grapes, which is a comparative and competitive advantage in terms of the Greek agricultural economy.

Concluding his presentation, Mr. Bounakis proceeded with innovative proposals to eliminate the structural problems of the agricultural sector in Greece.
