For another year, we ran in the 5km race of the Athens Marathon, supporting the work of the EXELIXI ZOIS organization.
Following the participation of our employees in the 5km race of the 39th and 40th Authentic Athens Marathon, our running team returned. Once again, our presence was planned to support a social cause, as through our participations, we contributed to the work of EXELIXI ZOIS, an organization that supports children and youth who grew up in care structures, in their beginnings as students and professionals.
Our team covered the 5 km route, which runs through the center of Athens, leading to the finish line at the historic Kallimarmaro Stadium. All together, we participated in the grand celebration of sports, merit and fair play, guided by team spirit and aiming to boost equal opportunities for every young man and woman, in their academic and professional fields.
A team with social contribution
This was not the first time that the company is on the side of beneficiaries of EXELIXI ZOIS. In March 2023, with the participation of our running team in the Athens Half Marathon, we supported the organization's educational, athletic and cultural programs for young people who grew up in care structures and are taking their first steps into adulthood.
Additionally, on the occasion of the International Day of Women and Girls in Science, we welcomed girls - who have just finished school or are taking their first professional steps - in our offices and showed them around our facilities. Executives and women engineers discussed with them the great job opportunities offered by the dynamically growing energy and technology sector in Greece.
We promote the well-being of our people
Along with the axis of social contribution, our presence at running events such as the Authentic Athens Marathon is part of our goal to enhance the well-being and quality of life of our employees, encouraging physical exercise. To that end, we organized a series of Well-being Seminars, with topics that concern our people in their daily lives, in order to improve their mental health and enhance the maintenance of a balance between personal and professional life.
