Umbrella Sculpture, Thessaloniki Promenade
As delivered
Kalimera everybody. Let me say first of all how great it is to be back in Thessaloniki, this beautiful city. It’s been a long time since I’ve been here, and a long time since I’ve seen the umbrellas.
I’m really glad to be here today with Lime Scooters, a company that I got to know back in 2018 when they entered the Greek market. Lime is a company which is headquartered in my home state of California, in San Francisco. It’s a company which has been innovating across the area of micro mobility and very much fits with the challenges and the opportunities of a city like Thessaloniki.
