Mr Ilias Katsogiannis, Marketing Director for Panathinaikos BSA stated: “We welcome Adecco to the Panathinaikos’ family and thank it for the trust it has placed in us. We are certain that our common goals will lead to the development of a successful and beneficial partnership. It is an honor for us as well as proof of the Panathinaikos BSA brand-name dynamic to collaborate with companies that contribute to events of the highest level, such as the Olympic Games.”

Christos Misailidis, Zone Director Eastern Europe & Middle East and Managing Director of Adecco Hellas said: “We share the same ideals with Panathinaikos. Determination, passion and target-focus are components for success on- and off-court. We are particularly happy to stand by the side of Panathinaikos’ basketball team in its effort to conquer even more titles.”
