“In just 9 months of operation, the Center for Business Operations & Services has exceeded our initial goals and has entered an upward trajectory of development, both in terms of staffing and the provision of services to the global organization of Pfizer. This fact justifies the choice of Thessaloniki and our country for this investment and highlights even more the high level human resources of our country but also the possibility of permanent repatriation of Greeks abroad (brain re-gain) who left during the economic crisis in the last decade “.
