Apostolina Lina Tsaltampasi, was born in Thessaloniki and completed her education in Thessaloniki, where she graduated from the public school of Aristotle University.
She says that education has always been a challenge for her. – “During my second year of studies, I received a scholarship according to the European program Socrates. This program led me to the Uppsala Institute of Geology where I participated in a research study on the causes of earthquakes in Greece. From 1997-1999 I studied professional finance, investment and consulting at the Adult Education College of the Greek Stock Exchange Organization. Between 2001-2003 I studied at the University of Macedonia in Thessaloniki, obtaining a master’s degree in business administration and finance. “Since 2003, I have continued to receive adult education, while at the same time teaching other adults in lifelong learning programs, universities and technical institutes” and emphasizes that she did not finish her education here, which she has continued with since 2011 after being selected selected to participate in the CIPE (Center for International Private Enterprise) Training Program in Washington. The program was a distance learning method lasting 12 months. As a final session, in 2012 I was selected to participate as a fellow (1 in 6 scholars, out of 1500 participants), for further training at ASAE University-Washington DC, as a joint CIPE-ASAE training program.
That was the beginning of her entry into the business world. In her description of activities, she writes that she is: “consultant, business angel, motivator and supporter of innovators”.
