Six Cypriot Firms Impress US Investors at New York City Event
May 22, 2018
Six Cyprus-based companies with a focus on American expansion presented their vision to nearly 100 U.S. investors and business leaders last week in New York City. The “Cyprus Realized” event was a partnership between the Cyprus-U.S. Chamber of Commerce and Kinisis Ventures Limited, a business acceleration company founded by Cypriot ex pats with an aim to expose Cypriot based companies to the US market and business network. This event was another positive step to the ongoing hard work of Kinisis Ventures, mentions Yiannos Georgiades, a Nicosia based Kinisis Ventures Co-Founder.
The event was very well organised and attracted high calibre participants - a great fit between start-up companies and representatives of prospective investors and investment companies. The reach of Kinisis Ventures in bringing the investment community to meet with the six firms was evident. This event opened the doors for an array of great opportunities to an excellent selection of companies that showcased Cyprus’ diversity and potential to create global success stories. “Starting in Cyprus no longer means being limited to the Cypriot market. That has been the case for a long time and it's time a lot more people start taking advantage of it,” said Stagedoor founder Michael Hadjijoseph.
