Alumni Success

ACG alumni working today in more than 1700 companies and organizations in Greece and abroad are an enormous source of pride and inspiration. Hundreds of them are in top positions and regarded as opinion leaders in their respective fields. Dynamic professionals who have distinguished themselves in a variety of business sectors, the arts, the sciences or politics are the true measure of the institution's success. They constitute an important reference point for all current and prospective students.
