Description

In this Owlcast episode, we host Dr. Peter Papageorgiou—ACS Athens Class of ’93—whose path from a passionate IB student to a pioneering medical consultant and entrepreneur unfolds in unexpected ways. With stories of senior skip days in Mykonos and Theory of Knowledge reflections that later shaped his pitch for multi-million-dollar research grants, Peter’s journey is anything but ordinary. Dr. Papageorgiou talks about his groundbreaking research on blood pressure regulation, the realities of medical entrepreneurship, and how collaboration, creativity, and resilience define success in the business of healthcare. But his story goes further—beyond the lab and boardroom—to initiatives in civil discourse, policy debate, and global alumni engagement.
