It was an honor for our Managing Partners, Nicolas Kanellopoulos and Chara Zerva, to attend the visit of H.E. the President of the Hellenic Republic, Mr. Konstantinos Tasoulas, to the Ionian Center of the Holy Metropolis of Nea Ionia, Filadelfeia, Irakleio and Chalkidona on Sunday, July 6th, 2025.
The President was welcomed and guided through the Center and its surrounding park by His Eminence Metropolitan Gabriel, who presented the vision and progress of this important initiative. The visit took place in the esteemed presence of His Eminence Archbishop Ieronymos of Athens and All Greece and His Eminence Metropolitan Maximos of Ioannina.
The Ionian Center aspires to become a modern hub of faith, culture, and intellectual development, while serving as a place of remembrance and tribute to the unforgettable homelands of Asia Minor. It offers citizens free access to a wide array of educational, cultural, and creative activities.
The realization of this project is the result of a successful collaboration between the public and private sectors. Our law firm has been actively involved from the very beginning, providing legal counsel and strategic advisory support to all stakeholders throughout every phase of the project — from its inception to the present day, as we move closer to delivering it to society.
We proudly stand alongside the Holy Metropolis of Nea Ionia and the Church in their efforts to leave a lasting legacy for future generations — a legacy rooted in values, culture, and service. The Ionian Center is set to become a landmark space where education, culture, academic learning, and spiritual growth come together in harmony.
