CapsuleT - Alexandros Vassilikos, President of the Hellenic Chamber of Hotels for international partnerships

"An initiative like our accelerator, which succeeds to distinguish itself in its 3 years of operation both in Greece through the tourism awards and abroad with the winning position in the South Europe Startup Awards, proves that when there is vision, focus and collective participation, we can create new perspectives not only for our industry, the hotel industry and tourism but more generally prospects for recognition and development of new partnerships and with partners abroad in order to strengthen the start-up entrepreneurship and investment in it".

Katerina Saridaki, director of CapsuleT Travel & Hospitality Accelerator

"It is truly our great pleasure and honor to have this award, it is a moral recognition of our effort, a recognition beyond our borders, very important both for us as an accelerator and team designing and implementing the programme of the CapsuleT, but as much as I think all those who support us from the first moment, our sponsors and strategic partners, the excellent judges and mentors who dedicate personal time and know-how voluntarily but mainly our teams, who trust us to support and guide them in their next steps. This award concerns our entire community, and is a festive moment but also a moment of responsibility towards what we are doing and our next steps. We thank all those who support us and of course those who voted for us during the public voting process and the SESA Awards committee for this honorary distinction."
