Managing Director, Spyridon Michopoulos, answers our Spotlight questions.

In your opinion, what is the future of your profession?
Despite the present digital era we live in, we believe that the profession of tax consultant has a future in our country.
Both the complexity of the relevant laws and their constant modifications require the specialized knowledge of tax professionals/experts. Even though AI will replace accountants in the daily bookkeeping routine, analytical and critical human thinking will still be necessary to study and delve into our clients’ complex financial and tax issues.

What is your growth strategy? Where do you see your firm 5 years from now?
Steadily and surely, we are constantly evolving along with the growth of our company. The new generation of our company, both among our associates and the company’s Management, provides us with a vision of the future filled with optimism and confidence. By cooperating with large offices, mainly abroad in Europe and Greece, we aim to double our turnover and the number of partners within the next five years. Our country also attracts numerous investments in the tourism and energy (esp. in renewable energy sources) industry. Our great experience in supporting foreign companies and their Greek interests justifies our high expectations of receiving a large share of this market in the coming years.

What is your biggest challenge?
The change of our DINAMIKI’s management administration, in the spirit of evolution and empowerment of the younger generation, with smooth and gentle handlings that ensure the sustainability of our successful course over time. The next generation is ready to take over the “reins of our company” and the older ones hope for a successful handover of its management.
