What does a strategy session with Christiana Thanou cover?

Sessions cover your specific situation, not a generic lecture — entering the Greek or Southern European gaming market, esports and community strategy, content and creator-economy positioning, or a working review of your brand's gaming presence, drawing on fourteen years of pattern recognition in the industry.

How does booking a session work?

You book a slot and answer three short intake questions so Christiana arrives prepared. The session runs 60 minutes on video. Within 48 hours you receive a written summary with concrete next steps.

Why does The Sprint (3 sessions) cost more than three times a single session?

The Sprint is a different engagement, not three single sessions back to back. It builds one persistent strategy document that grows across all three calls instead of restarting context each time, includes 30 days of email access between sessions, and priority calendar placement. A single session remains the right choice for a single conversation.

Christiana Thanou — The Voice of Greek Gaming

Q: Who are Christiana Thanou's strategy sessions for?

Brands entering gaming, founders building in esports and creator technology, agencies pitching gaming activations, and creators turning professional. The sessions are paid consulting engagements, not informal advice calls.

The Record

Not an influencer.
An institution.

Very few people have run a country's leading gaming publication, fronted its television coverage, commanded its biggest esports stage — and then founded a company for the industry they helped shape.

Current Founder & CEO, Gamerie Building Gamerie — the AI-powered esports platform — through a competitive MIT-affiliated startup accelerator, placing in the top 5 of the cohort.

14 Years Editor-in-Chief, GameWorld.gr Directed Greece's leading gaming publication and built its YouTube channel from zero past 100,000 subscribers. Represented GameWorld internationally at E3 (Los Angeles), Tokyo Game Show, and Gamescom (Cologne), and interviewed the industry's biggest names — including Hideo Kojima.

Radio Presenter, Sentra 103.3 Hosted Greece's only dedicated gaming radio show for five years.

Television Presenter, Multiple Networks Fronted Greece's only gaming TV show (Extra 3 & Epsilon TV, 2 yrs), a weekly gaming segment on Skai TV, a game show on Star TV, and served as game presenter for 24Media's private channel.

Stage Host, League of Legends Greek Championship Official stage host and presenter for Greece's premier professional esports league, including the LGC Grand Finals at the Olympic Tae Kwon Do Stadium.

Pioneer Greece's First Female Gaming Streamer Independently organized and marketed live tournaments across three Athens retail locations in partnership with Inspot — sourcing prizes, running promotion, and producing the events solo.

Education Ambassador, IEK AKMI — Game Development Two years advising and delivering seminars to the next generation of Greek game developers.

Advisory Strategic Advisor, Capital & Growth Advised Gulf Air Academy (Athens) through two funding rounds totaling €400,000 — outside gaming, and proof the same instincts apply wherever capital meets ambition.

Now Airing Creator & Showrunner, RESPAWN A 12-episode original series on the video games that predicted our present — algorithmic power, digital identity, and who owns the player.

Advised through two successful funding rounds — strategy, positioning, and the investor narrative that closed both.

Peripheral lines sold out following my presentation events — product storytelling that moves inventory, not just audiences.

Trust Gaming — Live Presentations

The same result, repeated for a different brand — proof it's a method, not a fluke.

Work With Me

Where I am worth the fee.

Gaming Market Strategy

Entering the Greek or Southern European gaming market. Esports activations, community strategy, and the creator economy — advised by someone who built the room, not read about it.

II.

Hosting & Keynotes

Esports tournaments, product launches, industry panels, television. Fourteen years of live audiences, in Greek or English. If the stage matters, the host must.

III.

Partnerships & Press

Selective brand collaborations and media appearances at the intersection of gaming, AI, and culture. Editorial standards apply — that is precisely their value.

Private Sessions

My calendar is the front door.

Bring your specific situation — market entry, esports strategy, or creator-economy positioning — not a lecture. Book a slot, answer three short intake questions so I arrive prepared, and within 48 hours of the call you receive a written summary with concrete next steps. Sessions are paid — payment is handled at booking.

Private Strategy Session €300 60 minutes · video · written summary within 48h

The Sprint €1,500 3 sessions · persistent strategy doc · 30 days email access

Why 3 sessions cost more than 3× a single call

Not three calls back to back — one persistent strategy document that compounds across all three, plus 30 days of email access and priority booking. If you only need one conversation, the single session isn't a lesser choice, just a different one.

In-Person & Corporate from €900 Athens sessions €900 · workshops & keynotes from €2,000

For brands entering gaming, founders building in esports and creator tech, agencies pitching gaming activations, and creators turning professional — not for "picking my brain" over coffee.
