Athens at Work (Greece's Tech Entrepreneurs) (2013)
A new generation of ambitious, well-educated entrepreneurs has arisen in Greece, hard hit by the Eurocrisis. Rather than throwing in the towel, they confidently begin businesses of their own, in what might be called the internet-mobile-software triangle. Francesco. Lastrucci recorded these fast-rising Athens start-ups at coLab, a brightly lit, intelligently designed building in the centre of the city where they they can rent a workplace with free broadband and coffee. From there these young Greeks can break into world markets, and in several cases have been able to even become market leaders.
