[02] Metsovio Polytechnic celebrates 180-year anniversary

anniversary. A series of events including thematic units on the schools
of the Polytechnic and the long history of the institution have been
scheduled to take place in early July, September and November while
the main event will be held on December 12.
The first event of the internationally acclaimed Athens Polytechnic
(National Technical University of Athens) was held at the Technological
Park of Lavrio in May. "The Polytechnic was never isolated from the social
reality," stated the Rector of the institution Professor Ioannis Golias
explaining the selection of the site of the first event entitled "Metal

the establishment of the school of Mining and Metallurgical Engineering.
[03] Hellenic Sugar Industry expects binding offers for Serbia units
by June
Hellenic Sugar Industry expects to receive binding offers from candidates
in a tender to buy two sugar factories in Serbia by the end of June,
Antonis Hatzidiamantis, chairman of the company told ANA.
He said that candidates in the tender surpassed nine and noted that their
interest was strong. All candidate investors are based in Western Europe
and Serbia.
The tender to sell AD Fabrica Secera Sajkaska Zabali and Crevnka Fabrica
Secera AD Crevnka was launched in January 2017. Hellenic Sugar Industry
owns 92.6 pct and 87.5 pct of the two companies' equity capital,
respectively.
Hatzidiamantis said that lower than expected producers' activity -only
64,000,000 sq.m. of beet were sowed this year- meant that Hellenic Sugar
Industry will not operate the Serres factory for the fourth successive
year.
