She helps corporate teams and individuals set and achieve their goals, develop their strengths, balance, sustainability, and their creativity. In short, she helps others find more stability, happiness, and in doing so achieve more than they dreamed possible.<br><br> Her work with senior executives and their teams, professionals in the business and medical world, and also people who find themselves at a crossroads in their professional or personal lives, has made her renowned as an expert in professional and personal sustainability, motivation, positive attitude, and long-term achievement.<br><br> Hers is an innovative and unique method; she stands out in her capacity to understand and work with the human element. Alex lives what she teaches and her energy is unparalleled, drawing out the best in the people and groups she works with all over the world.<br><br> Alex Panayotou is a charismatic international motivational and TEDx Speaker, and is active around the globe.<br><br> “One of the most inspirational guest speakers” according to Jean Francois Dekimpe, (Coca-Cola Eurasia & Africa)<br><br> Alex’s story is an inspirational and motivating one. Through it she has become an expert in overcoming obstacles and adversity; her positive attitude and energy stand out. <br><br> Having run more kilometres than most people have driven, Alex draws on her exceptional athletic achievements to enrich her professional capability and programs. She started running at 30 years old, and quickly reached championship level. In 2004 she came 2nd in the Barcelona Marathon, 4th in the Greek Championships, and won many races before she turned to solo extreme distance running for charity. This makes her one of only about 5 women in the world who have run distances and challenges as extreme as 2010 km in 31 days, or 400 km non-stop.<br><br> These extreme endurance feats have – however – been put in perspective by the physical, mental and emotional obstacles she dealt with from Autumn 2017 to early 2019. She was diagnosed with breast cancer and operated for a malignant tumour. Over the following year she underwent chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Just as with all other great hurdles in the last 14 years, Alex took this in her stride.<br><br> She faced this challenge with optimism, strength, and energy: starting to race again at the beginning of chemotherapy, and continuing through all of her treatment. As early as Summer 2018 she was back on the podium again in her age category and as overall winner. <br><br> Her work works: she has turned an extremely challenging time into a transformational journey, and is now launching a new campaign, alongside her chosen vocation. This is a wake up call to help people take their lives into their own hands before adversity strikes them, and also to help those going through similarly challenging situations, address them and deal with them in the best way possible.<br><br> Alex is an example that if we approach life with a positive attitude, are willing to change and adapt our behaviour, lifestyle, and habits, we can deal with our obstacles much more effectively, achieve more of our goals, and live life to the fullest. <br><br> Expert in: <br><br> • Executive Endurance / Professional sustainability and balance (Avoiding or dealing with Burnout and Stress Syndrome)<br><br> • Overcoming obstacles and adversity<br><br> • Courage vs. fears and doubts<br><br> • Positive attitude & Motivation<br><br> • Personal & professional

Prior to CTX, Wayne founded Bartercard in 1991, which he sold in 2008. CTX launched in 2009 in London, interfacing with Westpac Banking Corporation in 2010. Since then Wayne designed and built multiple new exchanges across various markets including EUETS, California, RGGI (USA), Australia, as well as exchange platforms for water, renewable energy and the regulated Stock Exchange 4 Africa Exchange South Africa, designed by GEM in 2015. GEM technologies have interfaced with multiple banks globally and up to 8 carbon registries simultaneously. <br><br> Bartercard was and is the world’s largest non-cash marketplace (registry/exchange/bank) where B2B members exchange goods and services on credit units (not cash) via a unique “alternative virtual currency”. Under Wayne’s 21 years of leadership, Bartercard had 136 offices in 20 countries, 3500 staff and turned over in excess of $ AUD 50 billion. <br><br> Wayne began studying the imminent impact of climate change in the late 1990s and became increasingly concerned about the lack of action on behalf of corporates and governments alike to deal with it. After identifying a gap in communication and transaction capability between the private and environmental sectors, he became committed to provide the technology to deliver financial resources to a wide array of projects aimed at solving the challenge of climate change. <br><br> He sold Bartercard to management to dedicate his time designing and building Carbon Trade Exchange (CTX) in 2007 and GEM in 2010. For the past 12 years, he has devoted himself to bridging the nexus between financial markets and the environment, creating marketplaces and platforms that make financing environmental outcomes simple, secure and transparent. In early 2019 he identified the need to create the world’s first ITMO Registry®, to originate and trade carbon credits under the Paris Agreement, designed and built by GEM and linked this registry to CTX for trade. <br><br> He is a global leader in the industry attending and speaking at key global events such as World Climate Summits, Carbon Expo’s, NACW (USA), Climate Leadership Conferences and the UN Climate Change Conference (he attended seven conferences and was invited to be a speaker at five). <br><br> With homes in London and Gold Coast Australia, he is an active sportsman, outdoorsman and adventurer, and considered a visionary leader by his peers. </div> <ul class="ekit-team-social-list"> <li class="elementor-repeater-item-6950a7a"> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/waynesharpe/" target="_blank" aria-label="LinkedIn"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="icon icon-linkedin"></i> </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </div> </section> <section class="elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-e89bfd8 elementor-section-full_width elementor-hidden-tablet elementor-hidden-phone elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default elementor-invisible" data-id="e89bfd8" data-element_type="section" data-settings="{"animation":"fadeInRight"}"> <div class="elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default"> <div class="elementor-column elementor-col-20 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-23f43aa" data-id="23f43aa" data-element_type="column"> <div class="elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated"> <div class="elementor-element elementor-element-b1b9570 elementor-widget elementor-widget-elementskit-team" data-id="b1b9570" data-element_type="widget" data-settings="{"_animation":"none"}" data-widget_type="elementskit-team.default"> <div class="elementor-widget-container"> <div class="ekit-wid-con"> <div class="profile-card elementor-animation- text-center ekit-team-style-default"> <a aria-label="profile" href="javascript:void(0)" data-mfp-src="#ekit_team_modal_b1b9570_8349" class="ekit-team-popup"> <div class="profile-header ekit-team-img ekit-img-overlay ekit-team-img-block" data-toggle="modal" data-target="ekit_team_modal_#b1b9570_8349" > <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="594" height="573" src="https://sustainabilityforum.gr/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Vassiliki-Lazarakou_3X4_epitropi-kefalaiagoras_small-1.jpg" class="attachment-large size-large wp-image-8901" alt="vassiliki lazarakou sustainability forum speaker" srcset="https://sustainabilityforum.gr/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Vassiliki-Lazarakou_3X4_epitropi-kefalaiagoras_small-1.jpg 594w, https://sustainabilityforum.gr/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Vassiliki-Lazarakou_3X4_epitropi-kefalaiagoras_small-1-300x289.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px" /> </div> </a> <div class="profile-body"> <h2 class="profile-title"> <a aria-label="profile" href="javascript:void(0)" data-mfp-src="#ekit_team_modal_b1b9570_8349" class="ekit-team-popup"> Vassiliki Lazarakou </a> </h2> <p class="profile-designation">JSD, Chair</p> <p class="profile-content"><br> Hellenic Capital Market Commission</p> </div> <div class="profile-footer"> <ul class="ekit-team-social-list"> <li class="elementor-repeater-item-6950a7a"> <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/vassiliki-lazarakou-99b0237/" target="_blank" aria-label="LinkedIn"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="icon icon-linkedin"></i> </a> </li> </ul> </div> </div> <div class="zoom-anim-dialog mfp-hide elementskit-team-popup team-popup-id-b1b9570" id="ekit_team_modal_b1b9570_8349" tabindex="-1" role="dialog" aria-hidden="true"> <div class="modal-dialog modal-dialog-centered" role="document"> <div class="modal-content"> <button type="button" class="ekit-team-modal-close"> <i aria-hidden="true" class="fas fa-times"></i> </button> <div class="modal-body"> <div class="ekit-team-modal-img"> <img loading="lazy" decoding="async" width="594" height="573" src="https://sustainabilityforum.gr/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Vassiliki-Lazarakou_3X4_epitropi-kefalaiagoras_small-1.jpg" class="attachment-large size-large wp-image-8901" alt="vassiliki lazarakou sustainability forum speaker" srcset="https://sustainabilityforum.gr/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Vassiliki-Lazarakou_3X4_epitropi-kefalaiagoras_small-1.jpg 594w, https://sustainabilityforum.gr/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/Vassiliki-Lazarakou_3X4_epitropi-kefalaiagoras_small-1-300x289.jpg 300w" sizes="(max-width: 594px) 100vw, 594px" /> </div> <div class="ekit-team-modal-info has-img"> <h2 class="ekit-team-modal-title">Vassiliki Lazarakou</h2> <p class="ekit-team-modal-position">JSD, Chair</p> <div class="ekit-team-modal-content"> JSD – Chair of the Hellenic Capital Markets Commission<br><br> Chair of ESAs Joint Committee’s Securitisation Committee<br><br> Dr. Lazarakou has a Doctorate in Law (JSD) from New York University School of Law, New York, U.S.A.

She helps corporate teams and individuals set and achieve their goals, develop their strengths, balance, sustainability, and their creativity. In short, she helps others find more stability, happiness, and in doing so achieve more than they dreamed possible.<br><br> Her work with senior executives and their teams, professionals in the business and medical world, and also people who find themselves at a crossroads in their professional or personal lives, has made her renowned as an expert in professional and personal sustainability, motivation, positive attitude, and long-term achievement.<br><br> Hers is an innovative and unique method; she stands out in her capacity to understand and work with the human element. Alex lives what she teaches and her energy is unparalleled, drawing out the best in the people and groups she works with all over the world.<br><br> Alex Panayotou is a charismatic international motivational and TEDx Speaker, and is active around the globe.<br><br> “One of the most inspirational guest speakers” according to Jean Francois Dekimpe, (Coca-Cola Eurasia & Africa)<br><br> Alex’s story is an inspirational and motivating one. Through it she has become an expert in overcoming obstacles and adversity; her positive attitude and energy stand out. <br><br> Having run more kilometres than most people have driven, Alex draws on her exceptional athletic achievements to enrich her professional capability and programs. She started running at 30 years old, and quickly reached championship level. In 2004 she came 2nd in the Barcelona Marathon, 4th in the Greek Championships, and won many races before she turned to solo extreme distance running for charity. This makes her one of only about 5 women in the world who have run distances and challenges as extreme as 2010 km in 31 days, or 400 km non-stop.<br><br> These extreme endurance feats have – however – been put in perspective by the physical, mental and emotional obstacles she dealt with from Autumn 2017 to early 2019. She was diagnosed with breast cancer and operated for a malignant tumour. Over the following year she underwent chemotherapy, and radiation therapy. Just as with all other great hurdles in the last 14 years, Alex took this in her stride.<br><br> She faced this challenge with optimism, strength, and energy: starting to race again at the beginning of chemotherapy, and continuing through all of her treatment. As early as Summer 2018 she was back on the podium again in her age category and as overall winner. <br><br> Her work works: she has turned an extremely challenging time into a transformational journey, and is now launching a new campaign, alongside her chosen vocation. This is a wake up call to help people take their lives into their own hands before adversity strikes them, and also to help those going through similarly challenging situations, address them and deal with them in the best way possible.<br><br> Alex is an example that if we approach life with a positive attitude, are willing to change and adapt our behaviour, lifestyle, and habits, we can deal with our obstacles much more effectively, achieve more of our goals, and live life to the fullest. <br><br> Expert in: <br><br> • Executive Endurance / Professional sustainability and balance (Avoiding or

Prior to CTX, Wayne founded Bartercard in 1991, which he sold in 2008. CTX launched in 2009 in London, interfacing with Westpac Banking Corporation in 2010. Since then Wayne designed and built multiple new exchanges across various markets including EUETS, California, RGGI (USA), Australia, as well as exchange platforms for water, renewable energy and the regulated Stock Exchange 4 Africa Exchange South Africa, designed by GEM in 2015. GEM technologies have interfaced with multiple banks globally and up to 8 carbon registries simultaneously. <br><br> Bartercard was and is the world’s largest non-cash marketplace (registry/exchange/bank) where B2B members exchange goods and services on credit units (not cash) via a unique “alternative virtual currency”. Under Wayne’s 21 years of leadership, Bartercard had 136 offices in 20 countries, 3500 staff and turned over in excess of $ AUD 50 billion. <br><br> Wayne began studying the imminent impact of climate change in the late 1990s and became increasingly concerned about the lack of action on behalf of corporates and governments alike to deal with it. After identifying a gap in communication and transaction capability between the private and environmental sectors, he became committed to provide the technology to deliver financial resources to a wide array of projects aimed at solving the challenge of climate change. <br><br> He sold Bartercard to management to dedicate his time designing and building Carbon Trade Exchange (CTX) in 2007 and GEM in 2010. For the past 12 years, he has devoted himself to bridging the nexus between financial markets and the environment, creating marketplaces and platforms that make financing environmental outcomes simple, secure and transparent. In early 2019 he identified the need to create the world’s first ITMO Registry®, to originate and trade carbon credits under the Paris Agreement, designed and built by GEM and linked this registry to CTX for trade. <br><br> He is a global leader in the industry attending and speaking at key global events such as World Climate Summits, Carbon Expo’s, NACW (USA), Climate Leadership Conferences and the UN Climate Change Conference (he attended seven conferences and was invited to be a speaker at five). <br><br> With homes in London and Gold Coast Australia, he is an active sportsman, outdoorsman and adventurer, and considered a visionary leader by his peers. </div> <ul class="ekit-team-social-list"> <li class="elementor-repeater-item-6950a7a"> <a
