In addition, Theodoros Fessas is investing in Fourlis, while simultaneously divesting from energy activities, with Quest Energy selling photovoltaic plants.

In the energy sector, a meeting was held on the adequacy of electricity supply ahead of Easter, with concerns about the impact of the crisis in the Middle East. Euronext Athens announced changes to the services provided to brokerage firms, while Hellenic Defence Systems (EAS) is looking for investors to upgrade its facilities.
