Savvas Kyriakides, Founder & President of GBCY Business Association

Having spent his life between Cyprus and the UK, Savvas became acutely aware of the gap and limited collaboration between businesses in the two countries. He founded the GBCY Business Association to bridge the gap between businesses unable to access the right networks or understand the dynamics when entering new regions and markets. Now with 35 years of experience in business management, advertising and sales across the UK and Cyprus, Savvas is focusing on international collaboration and expanding ways to connect businesses all over Europe.
