Xenios Thrasyvoulou is a passionate entrepreneur who started his first businesses at 23 years of age fresh out of university offering personal assistance (PA) or concierge services to businesses and time-starved individuals on a ‘per hour basis’. In early 2007, three years later, he started PeoplePerHour.com, essentially a new-generation, online version of the above, allowing ‘virtual assistants’ to register on the site and offer their services directly to businesses who put projects up for tender. Xenios is a graduate of Cambridge University with MA/MEng where he was awarded a mark of Distinction for his Masters dissertation. He has attended multiple executive education programmes at Harvard Business School. He is also a noted speaker on entrepreneurship in numerous forums, events and business schools, including INSEAD business school.
