We are proud to launch our latest endeavor in 2010, which aims at identifying and honoring forty young leaders of Greek America, forty years old and under, through an exhaustive nomination and selection process by a Blue Ribbon panel.

These young leaders will represent various industries and disciplines from finance to fashion to philanthropy. The winners will be featured in a special edition of Greek America Magazine, and will be honored at a cocktail party and awards reception in Chicago on June 12th, sponsored by the Greek America Foundation.

The nomination process was opened to the public until March 31st. Over 300 nominations were received from 35 states and Canada. Our committee is now busy reviewing the nominations and the forty winners will be notified in mid-May.

On the evening of June 12th in Chicago, join Greek Americans from throughout the nation who will come together to celebrate and honor Greek America’s Forty Under Forty.

The 40/40 Awards Reception will take place at the W Hotel City Center in Chicago and includes food stations, a lounge atmosphere with great music, open bars and an out-of-this-world silent auction featuring unique items—some

The National Innovation Conference 2010

The National Innovation Conference 

Two and a half thousand years ago, Socrates said that the unexamined life wasn't worth living. He encouraged man to seek the unknown and, in a modern paraphrase, think outside the box. These words have guided generations of humans after him and still resonate today - especially in modern America. Because the world is governed by ideas and our advancement as a society needs good ideas, we are proud to introduce the National Innovation Conference, where global thinkers, leaders, doers can come together to present their ideas worth sharing.

NIC 2010 Presenters

We have chosen the presenters for NIC|2010 because of their successful careers in various disciplines of business, technology, the arts and culture. The presenters also share a passion for making the world around them a better place by challenging the human spirit with news ideas and concepts-- with innovation in thought and action-- through their respective endeavors.

Ρία Αντωνίου

 

 

 Διασκευάζει Αμάντα Λιρ και κάνει πανευρωπαϊκή καριέρα ως τραγουδίστρια!

 

 

Image and video hosting by TinyPic

 

«Give Me» ονομάζεται το κομμάτι με το οποίο η Ρία Αντωνίου κάνει την πρώτη δισκογραφική της προσπάθεια (ουσιαστικά πρόκειται για διασκευή του «Give a Little Bit to Me» της Αμάντα Λιρ, μιας τεράστιας disco επιτυχίας των 80's). Το βιντεοκλίπ έχει μόλις κυκλοφορήσει στο Διαδίκτυο, με τη Ρία να είναι, όπως θα περίμενε κανείς, πολύ σέξι.

 

Η παραγωγή του τραγουδιού είναι αγγλική, και κυκλοφορεί αυτή την εβδομάδα στο Λονδίνο. Μάλιστα, η Ρία έχει προγραμματίσει να κάνει αρκετές εμφανίσεις στο εξωτερικό στο πλαίσιο του promo tour για το κομμάτι, το οποίο πρόκειται επίσης να διασκευαστεί από διεθνείς djs.

 

Τέλος, στα επόμενα δισκογραφικά σχέδια της Ρίας Αντωνίου περιλαμβάνεται η διασκευή παλιότερων ευρωπαϊκών επιτυχιών, με τη συμμετοχή πάντα των καλλιτεχνών στους οποίους ανήκει η πρώτη εκτέλεση των συγκεκριμένων κομματιών.
