Piraeus Port Authority a long-standing supporter of Greek athletics, has taken another significant step by supporting the Greek delegation in the Summer World University Games, which will take place from July 27th to August 8th, 2023 in the city of Chengdu, China. Specifically, the company has taken on the responsibility of covering all the travel expenses for our 25 students who will be representing Greece at the FISU (World University Sports Federation) World University Games.
During yesterday’s departure of our students for the global event, representatives from PPA were present at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport to bid them farewell and wish them good luck. They also gave them the cheerful Panta, the COSCO SHIPPING’s mascot, to accompany them on their journey and bring them good luck.
PPA.S.A. Chairman Yu Zenggang expressed his support and dedication to the sports ideals and the Greek young athletes stating that: “Our commitment to the new generation and Greek sports, is unquestionable. This specific initiative is just one aspect of our broader and systematic contribution to sports and Greek society, which is a core principle and top priority for the Piraeus Port Authority. The World University Games provide an outstanding opportunity for our students to showcase their talents on an international level. We wholeheartedly support the 25 students representing the Greek delegation and sincerely wish them strength, success, and a remarkable performance!”
